Yussuf who recently attended the Arab league meeting in Libya said the troops will join the African Union peacekeeping forces in Mogadishu.
Djibouti’s foreign affairs minster Mohamud Ali Yussuf told reporters that the decision to send troops to Somalia was announced by President Ismail Omar Guelle of Djibouti while speaking in the Arab League meeting in Sirte, Libya.
However, Mr. Yussuf said that their troops will not participate in any confrontations between the Somali government forces and the opposing militias. He said the Djibouti troops will mainly participate in providing technical support to the other peacekeepers.
