Ethiopia starts Somalia pull-out

[musika man]

Ethiopian troops have started to leave the Somali capital, Mogadishu, four weeks after they crossed the border to help the government, officials say.
"Starting today we will withdraw our forces from Mogadishu," Ethiopia General Suem Hagoss said at a ceremony where warlords surrendered their arms.

Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi has told the BBC the withdrawal would take place in three stages.

The African Union is trying to set up a peacekeeping force to replace Ethiopia.

But so far, only Uganda and Malawi have publicly said they would send troops to Somalia.
