AU urging its members to help fund AMISOM

AU urging its members to help fund AMISOM

The African Union says the elections in August are critical - pushing Somalia further along the road to stability. So it's determined to step up security in coming months. Budget constraints are getting in the way. Already short of resources, Amisom must now contend with a 20% cut in funding for salaries from the European Union. The AU wants its members to make up the shortfall - and more.
