Kenya has joined a growing list of international players in urging Somalia to negotiate an amicable electoral programme and save the region from instability.
Commenting for the first time on Somalia's electoral crisis since the two countries cut diplomatic ties, Kenya told the African Union Peace and Security Council on Tuesday that Somalia's elections will be vital for the long-term stability of the Horn of Africa, and asked donors and other partners to ensure all stakeholders take part.
