TRUMP: PULL TROOPS FROM SOMALIA

President Trump reportedly ordered his military leaders to pull out the approximately 700 U.S. troops stationed in Somalia who mainly have been training forces in the country to be prepared to defend themselves against al-Shabaab fighters.
Rather than bringing the troops home, it is reported they will be repositioned in Kenya.
Unreported in the mainstream news is that civil unrest has broken out in Kenya, and tensions between Somalia have been escalating.
Among the latest clashes between the neighboring nations is Somalia’s expulsion of Kenya’s ambassador late last month, accusing Kenya of interfering in the electoral process in Jubbaland, one of Somalia’s five semi-autonomous states.
Somalia also recalled its ambassador from Nairobi.
“As a result of the Kenyan government’s political interferences in the internal affairs of Somalia, the regional President of Jubbaland has reneged on the election agreement that was reached on the 17th September 2020 in Mogadishu,” the Somali Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Facebook.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Trump’s decision faced some criticism.
“We face heightened threats to our national security during this,” Rep. Anthony Brown, told the paper, referring to the shift from the Trump administration to Biden. “This action puts U.S. soldiers at risk, makes our country less safe, and it threatens the stability of our partners in Africa.”
TREND FORECAST: Foreign policy was barely discussed in this year’s Presidential Reality Show®, and it is out of the mainstream news.
As we have been reporting, violence and civil wars are erupting in African nations, most recently, the Ethiopian war launched by its Nobel Peace Prize Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed against the leaders of the Tigray Region. 
With economies across Africa sinking deeper into the “Greatest Depression,” social unrest, violence, and poverty will escalate, which in turn will ramp up a refugee crisis, many of whom will want to escape to Europe and safer havens.
