Page 1 of 2 EU Civilian Operations Commander Visits EUCAP Nestor‘S Field Offices in Somalia Page 1 of 2 EU Civilian Operations Commander visits EUCAP Nestor‘s field offices in Somalia PRESS RELEASE Nr 05/2015 28 January 2015 EU Civilian Operations Commander visits EUCAP Nestor’s field offices in Somalia From January 26th to 27th, the European Union External Action Service Civilian Operation Commander (CivOpsCmd), Kenneth Deane, visited the Regional Maritime Security Building Mission in the Horn of Africa and Western Indian Ocean - EUCAP Nestor - field offices in Somalia. Being responsible for ten civilian crisis management operations - working under the umbrella of the EU Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) - Mr. Deane, originally from Belfast, United Kingdom, receives at his Brussels HQ reports from different parts of the World. The Somalia visit adds substance to what is written on paper. “Discussing with real people and seeing how they operate on the ground makes things far more understandable”, explained Deane on the eve of his visit. The stop-over in the capital Mogadishu, where the field offices visitation started, and Hargeisa, in Somaliland - where EUCAP Nestor personnel are currently deployed - as well as Garowe in Puntland, location in which several mission activities took place, aimed at giving the CivOpsCmd a better understanding of the environment EU experts operate on a daily bases. Meetings held with local Authorities and counterparts added valuable feedback on the effectiveness of the proceedings of mission engagement in Somalia, important as well for future planning. In Mogadishu the CivOpsCmd, appointed in his position on July 2014, held discussions with security sector representatives of the Somalia Federal Government (SFG) and with EU and International partners. Among the representatives of the SFG, Deane, together with EUCAP Nestor Head of Mission Etienne de Poncins and other mission members, met the Somali National Security Advisor, Sheikh Issa, the Head of the Somali Coast Guard, Admiral Madey Nurey Sheikh and his Advisor Captain Moghe. During this first part of his visit CivOpsCmd had a chance to exchange ideas with the Head of the EU Delegation to Somalia Michele Cervone, with the Operation Commander of the EU “sister mission” EUTM Somalia, General Massimo Mignardi and UNSOM officers.

Here meetings were held - among other - with the Somaliland Minister of Interior, Ali Mohamed Waran Ade and the Head of the Somaliland Coast Guard, Admiral Ahmed Aw-Osman Abdi. In Somaliland the EU delegates visited the Coast Guard facilities of the port city of Berbera, an area where the struggle against piracy and illegal fishing is fought with less than basic means. The Somaliland Authorities expressed gratitude to Deane for the EU engagement in the area, underlying the need to support in order to succeed against maritime crime in such a tough environment. The Somalia’s visit ended in Puntland, a Region that up to only few years ago was constantly in the media spotlight with headlines about continuous pirate’s attacks to international vessel. In Garowe, the Region’s capital, CivOpsCmd paid a courtesy visit to President Abdiweli Mohamed Ali. The possibility for EUCAP Nestor experts to be permanently deployed in Puntland was one of the topics of discussion. In Garowe Deane paid visits to the Custodial Corps Academy as this is a potential venue for trainings activities and to the town prison, where a number of convicted pirates is detained. A meeting with UNSOM partners operating in the area was also held. If nowadays pirates attacks in Somalia are almost non-existing is also thanks to a constant EU and international commitment in patrolling of the area and mentoring Somalis. The EU is part of an International comprehensive approach to assist Somalia in re-shaping institutions damaged by over two decades of war and instability. With EU and international support to Horn of Africa’s Countries local communities confronting to the engagements piracy in Puntland and the Region has dramatically decreased, but the harder job is to tackle the root causes of piracy, that are to be found ashore. Background EUCAP Nestor is a civilian EU mission under the Common Security and Defence Policy which assists host countries in the Horn of Africa and Western Indian Ocean region (Somalia, Somaliland, Djibouti, Seychelles, Tanzania) in strengthening their capacity to ensure maritime security and in particular to fight piracy.

    United Nations S/2020/1072 Security Council Distr.: General 2 November 2020 Original: English The situation with respect to piracy and armed robbery at sea off the coast of Somalia Report of the Secretary-General I. Introduction 1. The present report is submitted pursuant to paragraph 29 of Security Council resolution 2500 (2019), in which the Council requested me to report within 11 months on the implementation of the resolution and on the situation with respect to piracy and armed robbery at sea off the coast of Somalia. 2. The report covers the period from 1 November 2019 to 31 October 2020 and highlights major developments since my previous report (S/2019/867). It is based on information provided by the United Nations system, including the United Nations Assistance Mission in Somalia (UNSOM), the International Maritime Organization (IMO), the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), as well as Member States and regional organizations, including the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), the European Union Capacity-Building Mission in Somalia, the European Union Naval Force (EU NAVFOR), the Indian Ocean Commission and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). II. Main developments, trends and considerations regarding piracy off the coast of Somalia 3. Efforts of the international community to combat piracy were impacted by the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. International coordination meetings, such as the annual plenary session of the Contact Group on Piracy off the Coast of Somalia, were postponed. The global demand for goods significantly decreased, which further reduced the volumes of cargoes shipped across the western Indian Ocean.

  • Somalia – Country Report
    GLOBAL EVALUATION OF FISHERIES MONITORING CONTROL AND SURVEILLANCE IN 84 COUNTRIES SOMALIA – COUNTRY REPORT GANAPATHIRAJU PRAMOD IUU RISK INTELLIGENCE Policy Report - Volume 1 Number 1 © Pramod Ganapathiraju MAY 2018 SUMMARY This evaluation of Fisheries Monitoring Control and Surveillance report for Somalia is one of 84 such country evaluations that covers nations landing 92% of world’s fish catch. Using a wide range of interviews and in-country consultations with both military and civilian agencies, the report exemplifies the best attempt by the author(s) at evaluation of MCS compliance using 12 questions derived from international fisheries laws. The twelve questions are divided into two evaluation fields, (MCS Infrastructure and Inspections). Complete details of the methods and results of this global evaluation would be published shortly through IUU Risk Intelligence website. Over a five-year period, this global assessment has been subjected to several cross-checks from both regional and global MCS experts familiar with compliance aspects in the country concerned. Uncertainty in assigning each score is depicted explicitly through score range. However, the author(s) are aware that gaps may remain for some aspects. The lead author remains open at any time to comments, and revisions will be made upon submission of evidence where necessary. Throughout the report, extreme precaution has been taken to maintain confidentiality of individuals who were willing to share information but expressed an inclination to remain anonymous out of concern for their job security, and information from such sources was cited as ‘anonymous’ throughout the report.

The Global Maritime Crime Programme (GMCP) continues to showcase the innovative and effective technical assistance UNODC is providing to help Member States to confront transnational organized crime at sea. In this Report, you will learn more about the work of the Horn of Africa Team, which is supporting maritime law enforcement agencies around Somalia with the skills, equipment and infrastructure needed to tackle not only Somali piracy, but also human trafficking and migrant smuggling as well as weapons and drugs trafficking in the region. Over the past year, the maritime law enforcement teams that UNODC has helped to build have disrupted the flow of ISIL fighters between Yemen and Somalia, saved the lives of migrants in the waters of the Gulf of Aden, freed hostages and enforced fisheries laws that are vital for Somalia’s economy. The team will soon be extending its technical assistance to Yemen.
