Somalia Talking Points We remain convinced that this international effort has and can continue to improve the lives of Somalis and can create conditions for the re-establishment of a civil society. The U.S. has remained in Somalia to ensure that the process begun by UNITAF is continued and brought to successful conclusion under UNOSOM. - - As Monday's mission against an Aideed stronghold demonstrates, the U.S., in conjunction with UNOSOM, continues to work to fulfill the mandate established by the UN for UNOSOM II. Q: Any comment on the removal of the Italian commander in Somalia? On the Italian threat to pull out of Mogadishu? A: - - Italy has made a very significant contribution to the UN effort in Somalia. - - I would refer questions about UNOSOM operations to the UN. Q: Is the U.S. reassessing UNOSOM's mission? A: : We remain committed to UNOSOM's mission to provide humanitarian relief and to create the conditions for a return to an orderly society. Q: What do you think of Senator Byrd's call for the removal of U.S. troops from Somalia? A: - - We continue to believe that the U.S. should fulfill its commitments in Somalia. The presence of U.S. forces is essential to the accomplishment of UNOSOM's goals.
