Talking to Mogadishu

Ros Atkins Ros Atkins | 10:47 UK time, Thursday, 28 December 2006

Regardless of whether you support the (UIC) in Somalia or not, it's hard not to feel some sympathy for those of you in Mogadishu. , something you've told us you're so tired of.

Over the past year many of you from have spoken to us on WHYS and the overwhelming message has been that regardless of whether your leaders are democratic, or undemocratic, Islamic or not, the one thing you want from them is some security and economic stability. The majority of you in Mogadishu who I have talked say that life under the UIC is an improvement on life under the warlords... what I don't know is whether you think the imminent arrival of Ethiopian and Somalian troops is .

If you're in Somalia, are from there or have friends of relatives.... let us know how you feel as the six months of UIC domination appears to be ending. And if you're in Mogadishu especially... please tell us what you've seen and what people are saying. We'd like to hear how you're doing.

No meeting as such today because there are already two major talkiing points set out (see below). Of course you're still welcome to call us through the day on country code 44 20 7557 0635 or post here on the blog.

We're on air at 18GMT and you can listen live on the blog's
