    Mogadishu (HOL) - Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud will travel to Tanzania on Thursday to attend the East African Community summit in Arusha.

    The Heads-of-State will discuss critical issues at the high-level retreat, including the eastern Congo crisis and the common market.

    During his stay in Arusha, Mohamud will hold multi-faced talks with heads of state attending both summits. The trip to Tanzania by Mohamud will be his fifth overseas trip since being elected President on May 15.

    Somalia requested membership in the East African Community (EAC) in 2018, but the EAC said it would send a delegation to Somalia to evaluate Somalia's degree of readiness. However, the EAC did not make any moves since that time. Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Burundi, Rwanda, South Sudan, and Congo are all members of the (EAC).
