Via Sudan Tribune 6 Jan 2007:

President Omar al-Bashir, who is also the chairman of the Arab League, today said "We shall continue our efforts, and strive because we are not interested in who rules Somalia, what we are interested in is who establishes stability, security, and peace among the people of Somalia."

"We said it from the first day since the first government was formed after Siad Barre, and we even told Abdelqasim Salad Hassan - former president of Transitional National Government - that we will support anyone who comes and achieves security, peace, and stability in Somalia."
