Abdisalam Yusuf Guled, the founder of Eagle Range Services, a security company in Mogadishu, and former Somalia’s deputy chief of the National Security Agency, is among those who voiced concern.

Still undergoing reconstruction after repeated civil wars, and still subject to an arms embargo, Somalia is struggling to structure its armed forces. The extent of this is such that a number of Western and African commanders fear an "Afghan-style" scenario, with total state collapse in the event of the ATMIS departure.

In a recent interview, the President commented on Somalia’s request regarding a three-month extension of the 2nd phase drawdown of the African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (ATMIS) troops and whether Djibouti supports this request.
