    "content": "The Ministers of Defence of the AU nations in Somalia, AMISOM, two contributing countries and other interested countries like Burundi, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda and Somalia met in Addis Ababa at the African Union on 14th November, 2011 to discuss the option for consolidation, co-ordination and expansion of AMISOM operations in Somalia. The meeting noted that the Kenyan military operation in Somalia was a game- changer and provided a unique opportunity to accelerate the stabilization of Somalia. As a follow up, a meeting of experts was convened in Addis Ababa on 24th to 26th of November, 2011, to develop a strategy concept for the way forward. In the meantime, the 19th Extraordinary Session of IGAD Assembly of Heads of State and Governments which was held in Addis Ababa on 25th November, 2011, called upon Kenya to consider the prospect of integrating its forces to AMISOM. The IGAD Summit also requested the IGAD Chiefs of Defence Staff to consider the way forward."
