I am pleased to announce that I have
appointed Ambassador John M. Yates as Special Envoy for
Somalia. He will represent the United States with the
Transitional Federal Institutions and other key Somali
groups, as well as coordinate on Somalia with our regional
and international partners.
The United States is committed to helping Somalis develop their national institutions and overcome the legacy of violence and disorder of the past. By supporting the people of Somalia in this effort, we are also contributing to the peace and stability of the Horn of Africa, and to the African continent as a whole.
