Hague was the first British Foreign Secretary to set foot in Somalia for over 20 years when he arrived for a one-day visit 2 February, where he met with the AMISOM leadership and the president of the Somali Transitional Federal Government (TFG) Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed, and formally introduce the credentials of the UK's new ambassador to the country, Mark Baugh. Hague also pledged Britain's commitment to the future of the Horn of Africa nation that has suffered near constant conflict for over two decades ahead of an international conference on Somalia to be held in the UK later this month.
