Former President Sharif Sheikh Ahmed issued a press release regarding his meeting with President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud in Nairobi on Friday.
The meeting, organized and financed by their sub-clan elders, was intended to push the two men to find common ground on national issues that radically oppose them.
Among the contentious issues listed in the communique are the reworking of the constitution, the country's political turnaround and the dispute between President Mohamud's government and the regional state of Puntland.
In all cases, according to Sharif, the president has been inflexible. As a result, Sharif felt obliged to abandon the talks, since Mohamud had made no effort to make concessions for the sake of the nation.

One day after Puntland signed a cooperation deal with Ethiopia, the federal government expelled the Ethiopian ambassador and demanded the closure of its consulates in Hargeisa (Somaliland) and Garowe (Puntland).

As expected, the two self-governing regions at odds with the federal government quickly rejected Mogadishu's appeal.

The Somali government under President Hassan Sheikh Mahmud has alienated itself from regional states and has no means of enforcing its orders outside the national capital.
