Spain Supports TFG

Spain has sent out a message that it supports the TFG or the transitional force government in Somalia. While the government of Spain supports the TFG the only real help it has sent to the Tfg is through the African Union. The TFG has been loked in battle with AL Sahabaab for a long period of time and efforts to retake the south have been troubling. With the recent invasion of the Nigerian government along with other African Union troops the recapture of the south seems hopeful once.Spain has put in over 10 million dollars into the African Union and has allocated more than 9 million dollars of the funds to Somalia. Spain is also putting money AMISOM the a program whose goal is to train 8000 foot soldiers to combat the militants in the south and help retake the country. The program hopes to create a stable democracy and through aide from the African Union a resolution does seem possible.
