American Government hampers efforts to help Somalian famine
According to the U.N., a famine is declared when “acute
malnutrition rates among children exceed 30 percent, more than 2 people
per 10,000 die per day and people are not able to access food and other
basic necessities.”
On the other hand, the problem is that the regions declared as famine crisis, are under the control of the Islamist militants, al Shabaab that has sworn allegiance to al Qaeda.
Al Shabaab forced Western aid organizations out of Somalia, which led the situation severer. But, even the terrorist group says now it is prepared to allow aid groups back into areas it controls.
However, aid officials are wary on aid in Somalia, citing the dozens of aid workers who have been killed by terrorists in Somalia in recent years. Also the officials added hampering the emergency efforts are American government rules that prohibit material support to the militants, who often demand “taxes” for allowing aid deliveries to pass through.
