As Council is aware, the AU is seized with the situation in Somalia since the launching in Kenya, of the Somali National Reconciliation Conference in October 2002, which culminated in the establishment of the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) of Somalia, among other institutions. In January 2007, and following the relocation of the TFG from Kenya to Somalia, and the demise of the Union of Islamic Courts (UIC), the PSC authorized the deployment of the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM), in order to contribute to the improvement of security situation, alleviation of the plight of the civilian population and the fostering of reconciliation.
