MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) - A peace conference planned for next month to help Somalia heal after more than 16 years of chaos is in jeopardy because of lack of funds, the chairman of the talks said Tuesday.
The conference, already delayed twice because of violence in the capital, Mogadishu, has been scheduled for June 16.
Chairman Ali Mahdi Mohamed said, however, that he was still waiting for the $7.5 million that donors have pledged for the talks. "We have been getting pledges from the international donor countries, but little has been so far paid," he said.
