3rd Round of Talks to Take Place in Khartoum Oct. 30 
--------------------------------------------- ------- 
 
4. (C) The second round concluded with an agreement to 
discuss power sharing, political issues, and security 
arrangements at a third round to commence on October 30 in 
Khartoum.  Although there will not be mediators, it was 
agreed that several entities would serve as observers at the 
third round:  UN, IGAD, AU, OIC, and EU.  Local press 
accounts in Arabic cite Sudanese Minister of Foreign Affairs 
Lam Akol as expressing trust that both sides would abide by 
commitments made, and that the third round would be the last.

KHARTOUM 00002140  003.2 OF 003 
 
 
Secretary General for Foreign Affairs Ibrahim Hassan Adow 
 
SIPDIS 
stated, in English, that talks were proceeding in a relaxed 
environment marked by mutual respect.  Misconceptions had 
been cleared up, and discussion took up where it had left off 
in the first round in June.  His main concern was that 
Ethiopian troops had entered Somalia at the TFG's invitation, 
and now were present in seven or eight places within Somalia, 
with human rights abuses and killings taking place.  Adow 
said that foreign forces had no place in Somalia, and served 
only to isolate the TFG and complicate the political 
situation, while threatening to expand TFG-held areas.  He 
doubted the presence of Eritrean forces with Somalia, and 
said that they should be removed if found. 
 
6. (C) Adow closed by inviting participants to visit 
Mogadishu, which he said was now safe.  The people of Somalia 
are in need of immediate help, and the international 
community should become involved, while remaining politically 
neutral.  Somalia's family is divided, and we want to make it 
one again. 
 
--------------------------------------------- ----------- 
TFG: Committed to Agreement, Despite Serious Differences 
--------------------------------------------- ----------- 
 
7. (C) That same evening, Sharif Hassan Sheikh Aden of the 
TFG advised the same audience through translation from Arabic 
that the TFG was determined and committed to a resolution of 
the "serious differences" between the parties.  He expressed 
hopes for an agreement, and noted that the parties had been 
meeting continuously since arrival in Khartoum.  Aden said 
the TFG aspired to the maximum achievable agreement, while 
admitting that agreement could not be found for all issues. 
He said the TFG delegation would not leave Khartoum without a 
communique, and would consult those present if roadblocks 
occurred.  Aden stated that he was not aware of foreign 
troops in Somalia now, and added that the need for them may 
be eliminated; he had heard reports of the presence of 
troops, but had not seen verification.  Their presence is a 
fundamental issue that has to be resolved through dialogue, 
although ultimately resting with parliament. 
 
8. (C) Aden observed that during the second round the TFG 
wished to discuss political issues first, and then security 
matters, while the UIC sought the opposite.  After much 
discussion the TFG agreed to the latter approach.  The second 
round of talks started with a mutual reaffirmation of the 
first round's agreement; the TFG has a formula for power 
sharing and is willing to accommodate the UIC.  He said that 
both sides regarded the presence of IGAD troops as an issue 
yet to be resolved; IGAD is divided, as is the international 
community.  He urged the international community to be 
constructive, and to speak forthrightly by asking IGAD to 
accept the situation as it is.  Conflict among IGAD states is 
being transferred in to Somalia, he added.  The TFG, he 
concluded, is a weak government that cannot protect itself 
from its neighbors; it is a victim of regional aggression and 
insecurity.

9. (C) In both briefings, Contact Group representatives 
expressed support for ongoing dialogue, a formal communique 
outlining areas where progress was reached, and a commitment 
by both parties to a subsequent negotiating round.  Also, in 
both briefings guests were made to feel welcome by their 
interlocutors, with the presence of a U.S. diplomat expressly 
appreciated.  End comment.
