The African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (Atmis) is keeping its exit plan, preparing a pool of another 3,000 troops to leave the country as part of a longterm rebuilding plan for Mogadishu.
But that may mean deeper security challenges for neighbouring Kenya, which has lately been suffering from attacks from the militant group Al Shabaab.
