By
PFJ reporter
Mozambique
has expressed willingness to help Kenya combat piracy in the Indian Ocean.
Defence
Minister Filipe Nyusi said in the capital,Maputo on Tuesday that extending the
collaboration to Kenya would generate greater effectiveness in the fight
against the menace in the Mozambique Channel. Mr Nyusi was addressing military
attaches in the Mozambican capital.
"Currently,
we share the activities to fight piracy with South Africa and Tanzania, but we
need to extend it to Kenya, to block the enemy at long range, before becoming
internal threat," said Mr Nyusi. He said fighting piracy in the
Indian Ocean could fail if the regional countries acted in isolation.
