Update: December 2022 – slow archaeology

“Our brains aren’t designed for multitasking”, my dear friend Cliff Nass, mathematician, cognitive scientist and psychologist, warned me a good long while ago. “It will slow you down and cloud your reasoning.” OK — I’m still working on the same big three projects as back then. But I am quite sure that my research and thinking have evolved most significantly and in ways I could not have…

boygenius rolled their Re:Set music festival into a sold out Forest Hills Stadium on Saturday night. They are the best band in the universe at this moment. They are one body moving together - eyes, lungs and heart. An astounding combination of friendship and art. Their microphones voltroning together to form a hurricane gust of love for 100 minutes.

They blessed us with a brand new song - Boyfriends - on Saturday. Another deep sea plunge into the sublime. When one of your favorite bands plays something you've never heard before it sometimes lifts you off the soles of your feet. You have no reference to where it will go or how it will end. Each new note and chord change sending you somewhere you've never been before. Most of the time you go to concerts to hear the songs you've heard one thousand times before - to sing along, to bring you back to the moment you listened to it with someone else. From here on out, I'll remember who I was standing with on that tennis court whenever I listen to Boyfriends.

Hey! Do you have the metal hammer interview that contained the questions that the fans asked?

Sure

I got into horror movies because of Ghost. What are your favourite horror movies, and what horror movies would you recommend? @The_Moon_Thief, Twitter

“There’s two branches of horror movies for me. There’s old classic slasher films, as in Friday The 13th and stuff like that, but then you have the really good horror films, the ones made by really talented directors who primarily don’t do horror, and do other films as well. The best horror films ever made are The Shining by Stanley Kubrick, Jaws by Steven Spielberg, Bram Stoker’s Dracula by Francis Ford Coppola, The Exorcist, The Omen. But then, you have classic cult directors. Lucio Fulci was an Italian director who made a lot of films that are entertaining. The House By The Cemetery is a classic one by him. The horror genre is hurt by the fact you have these really heavy-hitters who come in and do these fantastic films, and then unfortunately a lot of the genre is a swamp of really bad films.”

Would you ever play Glastonbury or other ‘mainstream’ festivals? Carly Daly, email

“We have played a lot of festivals like Pukkelpop, Rock En Seine, Roskilde - a lot of festivals where we are one of the few ‘metal bands’ but the headliner can be Bjork, Primal Scream and Drake. We played Coachella and Lollapalooza, lots of festivals like that… except for Glastonbury.”

Hammer: Is Glasto on your bucket list? “It would be cool of course, but it’s never really been one of my most important ones, so no. I don’t know if this is the same for Glastonbury, this is my interpretation, but at Coachella, if you’re on the bill, you don’t have to play because no one will watch you anyway. Everyone is there for the big hip hop headliner. When we played Coachella, we went to see Dead Can Dance there and it was a few people in a tent. For fucking Dead Can Dance. Are you kidding me?! That’s why I’m just not generally all for those big pop festivals. I would miss a lot of the camaraderie. If you go to Graspop or Download, you go in there you know everyone, so many people. Whereas if you go to a big pop festival or mixed festival, everyone is in their own little universe.”

Hammer: There are rumours you’re playing Glasto this year - is there anything in those rumours?

“No. Not now at least. That’s more than I know. I might live to regret what I just said!”

How much does writing new music go hand in hand with curating the new designs/'look’ for new eras? @haxbourne, Twitter “They go partly together. It’s always in the front of my head how a song will fit into the show or if there’s anything we can do to turn it into what we call a ‘gag’. Gag songs tend to work better in the sets, so I always have a monocle on for that. For some people who are wondering why we’re not doing songs off the new album already, it’s because there might be a planned gag for them that we haven’t been able to present yet.”

How do you feel knowing that many of your LGBT fans like to personally interpret/depict your characters as gay and/or trans? @sanguinevampyr, Twitter “Good. Great. If they find solace or inspiration in what we’re doing, I’m really happy about that."

Have you ever done a sick in one of your masks onstage, either from a hangover or the smell? Erin Smith, email “Once on a South American tour, we had a really bad flu going on with the band and crew. It was absolutely fucking horrible. Day after day, someone new fell apart and people were lying backstage in the foetal position with a cork in the front and a cork in the back, purging. That was not cool.”

What’s your favourite Abba song? @Dorkus666, Twitter “Right now, I Have A Dream. It involves three chords, and the third chord comes in at such a brilliant moment at the third section of the song. The first two sections are the same two chords, back and forth. Then all of a sudden, the third chord comes in and… they should be getting a Nobel Music prize for that one because it’s so fucking brilliant.”

Back when nobody knew who was behind the mask, what was your favourite rumour that you heard about yourself? Trent Carvalho, email “That I was tall! Especially in the Papa Emeritus attire. In the beginning in underground circles it was a fairly known fact that I was in the band, so I never felt 100% anonymous in the early days.”

Who is your favourite Ghost - fictional or otherwise? Bradley Stratton, Facebook “I’ve always been fascinated with the concept of ghosts in Star Wars. They appear as apparitions that can converse with you. If the Star Wars saga had been written a few hundred years ago, it would have been a religion, it has all the cornerstones of a religion and the idea of the elders and your teachers coming back to teach you from behind the grave is presented really well.”

If you had to wipe one of the following bands from history, which would it be: Iron Maiden, Kiss, Misfits? William Hawks, email “If I had to wipe them out? Oh, that’s a hard one. It’s an easy question, but the answer is hard; I have to be pragmatic. I’m a humongous fan of all three bands. The one band I’d choose to wipe out, and that’s not a diss, what they did was so great, is Misfits. My control freakishness and my managerial inclinations would love to go back in time and correct a few things they did wrong. Not aesthetically, but business-wise. I would have wished for them to have a better career. I’d love to go back and curate their career because the career of Misfits, Samhain and Danzig put together would have been marvellous.”

What is metal missing in 2022? Danielle Bull, email “It would be cool if there were newer, young bands regarded as more than a novelty, or an underground treasure. More organic rock bands of 20-year- olds recognised on a little bit more of a… I hate to say mainstream, but above the pub level. I’m all about underground, I come from the underground, and I worship the underground music, but for the resurgence of rock, we need that. I’d love if there were more bands that went through a similar recognition [channel] to Maneskin, actually. I think they’re really cool. They won Eurovision because they’re great, but they’re one of the few exceptions of it not being the end of their career. That’s usually what happens if you’re a band.”

Hammer: Have you ever considered Eurovision or been asked to do it? “No, not really, but I wouldn’t want to do it because as I said, it’s usually the end of your career. If you already have an established career, then don’t do it. Although Maneskin proved it could be done. I hope there’s a lot of 14-year-olds out there in Europe and the world who see that as an inspiration and start playing drums, bass and guitar.”

What weird shit do you collect? Robbie Gregg, email “I collect demo tapes. Old death metal demo tapes from the mid-8os to 1992. Black metal. Death metal. Thrash metal. Underground music. If anyone reading this who sits on shit like that… and if you are owners of original stuff that you got directly from the band… please call me!”

Would you ever have a female lead singer? @elyssami8, Twitter “Why not? That could happen. Sister Emeritus!”

If you could pick one metal song that changed your life, what would it be? James Persens, email “I Wanna Rock by Twisted Sister. That is probably the earliest song that I remember being able to sing and rock out to. That came out in 1984 and I was three years old at the time. I was lucky enough to have an older brother and in 1984 he was 16. A lot of who I am, why I am who I am, and my interests, is because of him. That’s my first memory of me thinking, ‘This is who I am.’”

The Classic Month with Roberto Roganti

Agnes Caroline Thaarup Obel + Aventine, 2012

#the classic month #roberto roganti #agnes caroline thaarup obel

[baileye]

In early 2022, when Daniyal Ahmed set off on a road trip from Karachi in Pakistan into the neighbouring province of Balochistan , his only contacts were a few distant connections who he hoped would lead him to a legendary musician within the region. After circling villages near Pasni, a fishing port on the Arabian sea about a six-hour drive from Karachi, Ahmed by chance spotted Ustad Noor Bakhsh on the side of a lonely road sitting next to his broken motorbike, waiting for help.

Ahmed is an anthropologist who teaches at Habib University, and had been chasing down masters like Bakhsh in remote regions across Pakistan. Bakhsh was already well known within Balochistan both as a solo benju (a type of zither) player and as Balochi vocalist Sabzal Sami’s accompanist for three decades. Ahmed was alerted to Bakhsh’s talents after he saw a video of him playing circulating on Facebook. A musician himself, he’s invested in amplifying regional talent that has become obscured in a country lacking robust infrastructure to support musicians, especially those who play traditional music.

When Ahmed told Bakhsh about his work, he was invited to stay, and over five days recorded an album’s worth of music by Bakhsh. In clips of sunset jams near the Shadi Kaur creek, Bakhsh sits cross-legged with his electric benju – his right hand expertly plucking strings on the base, his left moving rapidly up and down the keys on the neck – playing everything from Balochi compositions to Bollywood favourites, flanked by two damburag players, each holding a long-necked lute and keeping the beat.

Ahmed wasn’t just blown away by Bakhsh’s technique, but his ability to improvise, and play across forms. “The playing is virtuosic – it’s totally full of this spiritual energy,” says Ahmed, who has since become his manager. That first meeting changed both of their lives within a year. Ahmed’s Instagram stories of Bakhsh playing went viral, leading to press in Pakistan and India, an invitation to perform at Boiler Room’s debut broadcast in Karachi last June and then release an album, Jingul, in September, which received acclaim from Pitchfork. This summer, at the age of 78, he embarked on a 10-country European tour, including the huge Roskilde festival in Denmark.

From Useless Plastic Waste to Valuable Oil - Technology Org

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/from-useless-plastic-waste-to-valuable-oil-technology-org/

From Useless Plastic Waste to Valuable Oil - Technology Org

Researchers and business people have developed a new technology that can make oil from plastic waste that cannot be recycled. This oil can be used to make new plastic and other oil-based products. The technology was recently utilized in a new commercial facility in West Zealand, Denmark.

The research project RePlastic has focused on using pyrolysis for the chemical recycling of dirty and mixed plastic waste. Image credit: Angela Compagnone via Unsplash, free license

Do you ever wonder how much (or how little) of the plastic waste (packaging, containers, and milk cartons) you put in your recycling bin is actually recycled? The garbage truck transports it to a waste management facility for sorting and recycling. The ‘good’ plastic is recycled and the rest—which is either too dirty, mixed, or damaged for recycling—is incinerated.

In Denmark alone, around 370,000 tonnes of plastic waste is incinerated every year. According to the Danish Ministry of the Environment, plastic waste incineration makes up a significant portion of Denmark’s fossil-fuel carbon emissions. In other words, there is a huge green potential in developing new methods for recycling even more plastic waste than we do now.

Suppose we can also reduce the amount of non-renewable plastic waste. In that case, we can reduce the need for the non-renewable raw materials needed for plastic production—oil and natural gas. A group of DTU researchers have therefore investigated new possibilities for recycling our plastic waste in collaboration with Roskilde University and a number of industry partners. Their research project RePlastic has shown that a valuable oil can be produced from otherwise useless plastic waste through pyrolysis.

“I’m surprised at the great potential of pyrolysis technology for the most impure and mixed plastic fractions. This process can handle the plastic we have no other uses for. This enables us to bring end-of-life plastic back into the cycle and make it useful again,” says Anders Egede Daugaard, Associate Professor at DTU Chemical Engineering and head of the RePlastic project.

Plastic is not just plastic

To fully understand Anders Egede Daugaard’s enthusiasm, you need to understand the challenges of recycling and sorting plastic waste into different categories and fractions. The current number of different plastic types with different properties is incredibly high—just take a look at your own plastic waste, where you will find hard, soft, ductile, coloured, and transparent plastics. Plastic waste is generally divided into two categories: industrial and household. Industrial plastic waste is usually more uniform as it often consists of only one type of plastic, where both the additives and manufacturing process are known. Household waste, on the other hand, is more often a mixture of different types and grades of plastic. The plastic is then sorted into different fractions depending on properties and quality.

Because the chemical additives vary according to the properties of each plastic product, our plastic waste needs to be sorted before it can be recycled in a mechanical process that granulates, heats, and remoulds it into new plastic products. You cannot make new quality plastic from mixed plastic types because the melting point and additives differ and are often completely unknown.

In the RePlastic project, Associate Professor at DTU Anders Egede Daugaard and his team have assessed the potential of several plastic materials from the least valuable plastic fractions in our plastic waste. These fractions are where the majority of our household plastic waste ends up, along with industrial plastic waste that has already been recycled six or seven times and is therefore too worn out to be mechanically recycled again.

Pyrolysis creates new possibilities

The RePlastic project focused on using pyrolysis for chemical recycling. During the process, plastic waste is heated to high temperatures in a nitrogen-filled furnace, triggering a splitting of the chemical components of the plastic materials. Because there is no oxygen in the furnace, the plastic does not burn, but gasification occurs. The gas is then condensed into so-called pyrolysis oil, which can be used as an additive in fuel or new plastic products.

In the laboratories at DTU Chemical Engineering, researchers have been studying which plastic fractions can potentially be used for pyrolysis and how pure the plastic needs to be. The assessment of the purity required for the pyrolysis oil and its applications has been a key focal point for the project partners, as it is crucial to whether or not the technology can be commercialized.

The initial conclusion was that obtaining usable pyrolysis oil required a very clean system. This meant that the plastic waste had to be thoroughly sorted and cleaned before going in the pyrolysis furnace, and that the resulting pyrolysis oil subsequently had to be distilled and purified.

However, the RePlastic project shows that this is not actually necessary. The pyrolysis technology can handle the impurities in our mixed and dirty plastic waste.

From test reactor to industrial facility 

When RePlastic launched in January 2020, the goal was to form the basis for a technological solution that could be commercialized within a few years for the benefit of the green transition. The aim was to attract investors for the primary project partner, Waste Plastic Upcycling (WPU), which specializes in converting plastic waste into different types of oil that the industry can use in the production of new products.

Things have been moving really fast since then, because the technology is scalable and there is a demand for new technologies that can handle the different fractions of our plastic waste. Already during the research project, WPU has found investors, built an industrial pyrolysis facility, and hired employees. 

“We’re experiencing a lot of interest in robust and financially attractive technologies such as WPU’s, both nationally and internationally. The fact that plastic waste doesn’t have to be treated before the pyrolysis process with us makes a big difference, both financially and in relation to the assessment of potential environmental impacts and resource consumption,” says Niels Bagge, CEO of WPU.

Because the pyrolysis technology minimizes the resource-intensive sorting and purification, the is a great potential for making the process more sustainable. However, exactly what role pyrolysis technology will play in our waste system in the future depends on many factors.

“Pyrolysis technology definitely has potential in terms of recycling some of the more difficult plastic waste. In the future, we need to make sure to take into account both the choice of materials in products, the management and processing of waste in the waste system, and reusing it for new raw materials for industries. Using pyrolysis for mixed plastic fractions can play an important role in the plastic cycle,” says former DTU Professor Thomas Fruergaard Astrup, who assessed the sustainability of plastic recycling and pyrolysis technology in the RePlastic project.

boygenius brought their tour to Idaho last night - their increasingly spectacular live show echoing deep into the orange boise sunset. boygenius is the best band in the universe at this moment. They are one body moving together - eyes, lungs and heart. An astounding combination of friendship and art. Their microphones voltroning together to form a hurricane gust of love for 100 minutes.

Last night was the band's first show in Idaho which made the crescendo of Ketchum, ID hit harder than usual. Phoebe sat on the lip of the stage during "Letter To An Old Poet" to speak about returning to Idaho for the first time since the death of her father. Lucy and Julien wrapped her in a hug as the crowd swelled with warmth. This show continues to be an astounding embrace of friendship, of art, of sadness and happiness. Julien, Lucy and Phoebe are my three favorite artists and I feel lucky to be able to watch them make art.

Rented tents must produce less waste for Danish Roskilde Festival

Thousands of tents and pavilions are left behind at Roskilde Festival every year. The new system must change that.

On the dusty gravel road inside the camping area at Roskilde Festival[1], one of the festival's biggest problems lies in the baking sun: waste. It's here, there and everywhere: beer cans, chip bags and plastic in all the colours of the rainbow.

Roskilde Festival has a strategy for how to deal with the garbage problem. And according to Sanne Stephansen, who is program manager for sustainability at the festival, the festival always does its best to push itself and its guests. "We are constantly looking for where the biggest gains are to be made, and which solutions can help move ourselves and our participants in the right direction - not just for ourselves, but also for the society around us," she says.

At the festival in 2019, almost 2000 tonnes of waste were produced. It was less than the three previous years. But if you look back to the festival in 2001, only around 600 tonnes of waste was produced. According to Sanne Stephansen, the festival tries to create a dialogue with its guests – and the surrounding community – to show that change is possible. But new initiatives require the guests to be involved if they are to work.

"There is push, but there is also pull. There will probably always be a push-pull relationship. But the important thing is that we always try to make the right alternatives available and leave something up to the participants to choose, so that we don't always make all the choices for our attendants,” she says.

On Sunday, the problem becomes greater, when many guests pack up their things, but leave everything behind they don't want to take home. Among other things: tons of tents, pavilions and sleeping mats.

But a new initiative, where you rent your festival equipment, will try to tackle that. According to the festival, the products are of better quality and can be used year after year. "The reason why this type of rental or sharing solution is really good is that it can ensure more recycling. Every time a product is produced, it is enormously resource-intensive, everything from raw material extraction to production and transport,” she says.

When this year's festival is over, the organisation can get an overview of how much demand there has been and in what condition things will be brought back. Strong of knowledge, the festival can then buy in more next year.

According to Jesper Clement, who is an associate professor at CBS[2] and does research on consumer behaviour, the amount of waste produced at the festival is a visible problem. "There aren't many people who think it's the coolest thing just to screw up. Most people want to behave properly and recycle, but it is extremely difficult when you are there to have fun, that you also have to spend a lot of energy cleaning up. So it should be easy.” "It's a matter of creating systems that make it easy to hand it over," he says.

[1] The Roskilde Festival is a Danish music festival held annually south of Roskilde. It is one of the largest music festivals in Europe and the largest in the Nordic countries. It was created in 1971 by two high school students and a promoter. In 1972, the festival was taken over by the Roskilde Foundation, which has since run the festival as a non-profit organization for development and support of music, culture and humanism. In 2014, the Roskilde Foundation provided festival participants with the opportunity to nominate and vote upon which organizations should receive funds raised by the festival.

Midwestern Living: How I Learned to Love the Heartland

I have had the pleasure to live in Elk Horn, Iowa for some time now, so here’s some observations straight from the American heartland. I have never lived rurally, so it’s been an interesting to experience a charming Midwestern small town – the kind I imagine John Mellencamp singing about in his hit “Small Town.” However, do add a Danish twist in Elk Horn’s case.

This is not my first meeting with the Midwest. I had the honor of spending a semester at the University of Illinois in Springfield in 2019, so the Midwest is not completely new to me. I have experienced how quickly the weather can change by the day, or by the hour, the humidity of summers and the harsh coldness of the winters, but also how serious Midwesterners are about ranch dressing. Yet, I have never lived in a town with a population of 601, nor have I lived a place without any kind of public transportation, so that’s a whole new world for me. Luckily, the Museum of Danish America provides their intern with a nice car. My favorite thing about the car is the automatic stick!

So how do I feel about living in rural Iowa? I appreciate how people say hello to each other, and how locals’ wave from their car when I walk back and forth to the museum. It gives a sense of belonging. In general, I like how genuinely curious Americans is – something I think we Danes could learn a little from. I also enjoy how clean Elk Horn is. People really care about their surroundings. Also, the church is a good place to become a part of a local community. Besides worshiping, the various kinds of churches also provide an important social glue to their communities where events is hosted and where people make friends. Country music is pretty popular around here and fuel-hungry pickup trucks are a common sight on the roads. County fairs is a big thing during summertime, and functions as a kind of warm-up to the Iowa State Fair, which takes places in August. A colleague of mine and her husband invited me to attend the Shelby County Fair, which was an amazing combination of livestock animals, farm equipment, and a midway, reminding me about Roskilde Dyrskue, a joy of my hometown.

Driving around the state has also led me to notice that many small-towns takes a lot in pride in preserving their local cinemas – a majority was built during Hollywood’s golden era in the 1920s and 1930s. While some may be abandoned, the powerful combination of fundraising, volunteers and willpower has put many of these glorious old architectural treasures back to life. Close to Elk Horn is a town called Audubon, where the local community have re-opened the 98-year-old Rose Theater and offers tickets and snacks to a fair price. This of course includes buttered Iowa-grown popcorn, which is – to put it mildly - an amazing thing.

I also like all the different tractors I see every day – especially the iconic John Deeres emerging from a currently green sea of cornfields, which will soon turn into ‘amber waves of grain’ as harvest season kicks in. During my stay here, the corn has been growing a lot. As such, corn was ‘knee high by the Fourth of July,’ which is an old saying used to signal that the crop will be safe and sound. Currently, the corn is as high as a man on horseback, so I am pretty sure that this will be a good season. Being located in the heart of the Corn Belt, Iowa leads the nation in corn production and corn has a big cultural impact on the state. My favorite depiction of corn can usually be spotted at local post offices, where 1930s New Deal murals showing corn is located above the entrance, being a testament of how corn has and continues to shape the American heartland.

You may not usually associate Iowa with top notch art, but Grant Wood, a native Iowan painter who created the iconic “American Gothic” in 1930, was probably the most important figure in the Regionalism art movement. Portraying realistic scenes of rural and small-town America, Regionalism came to prominence in the 1930s as a reaction to the Great Depression and captures the atmosphere of the Midwest during that period. I actually had the chance to visit Iowa State’s Parks Library in Ames, where the largest murals by Wood is located – and they truly depict how essential agriculture is for the state of Iowa. However, I have yet to visit the site in Eldon, Iowa, where the building of which “American Gothic” was inspired is located.

I am also adjusting to the difference scene of food. Whenever I go to new places, I try to eat what is considered traditional food – and Iowans sure like their meat. As such, I have been eating a lot of breaded pork tenderloins, which is a favorite dish among Iowans. The Iowa Pork Producers Association has actually released a “Tenderloin Trail 2.0,” which is an update of an earlier trail – it’s basically a guide to find the finest pork tenderloins of the Hawkeye State. Should you ever complete this trail, then you’ll be the lucky owner of a free t-shirt stating that you conquered the trail. A local business in Elk Horn called Jensen’s Pub was once named the number one place to get a pork tenderloin in the state, and they do indeed serve a great piece of pork fried to golden perfection. What is really fascinating about this Midwestern staple is how truly eye-catching the meal is with a giant piece of breaded fried pork situated between two disproportionately small buns.

Another favorite of Iowans is the loose meat sandwich. Not quite a hamburger and not quite a sloppy joe, this savory sandwich apparently originates from Iowa’s Maid-Rite restaurants. A local saying is that, when one is in Iowa, one must go on a quest to find Maid-Rite, which this writer did. Originally founded in Muscatine, Iowa, by a butcher named Fred Angell in 1926, Maid-Rite is actually one of America’s first fast food chains and the first chain to feature drive-thru service. Anyway, Angell asked a delivery man to taste his newest creation. The taster exclaimed on the spot: “This sandwich is made right,” which is how the chain got its name. When you order a loose meat sandwich, you’ll usually get a spoon – and trust me, you’ll need it to accomplish this messy mission. One thing I look very much forward to the Iowa State Fair in August, which is famous for their unique food, such as porkchops on a stick and deep-fried corn on the cob.

Anyway, eating like that means that I’ll need to get my daily exercise. In the evenings I enjoy taking a brisk walk and look at the different landscapes in Southwestern Iowa. My favorite place so far is the Jens Jensen Prairie Landscape Park at the grounds of the Museum of Danish America, where you’ll get Elk Horn’s finest view of the sunset. The nature around these parts of the state is very similar to Danish nature, which I find quite charming. Besides the nature, there’s also a lot of windmills, which is a common sight back home, but also a big industry in the state of Iowa.

And whenever I miss home, I go to visit the Danish Windmill or the Museum of Danish America and buy some products from Denmark. The people behind the desk both places are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, so it’s always very enjoyable. It’s Midwestern friendliness and openness at its best.

[Machine Translation - "How did Hassan Sheikh's success put an end to Afwerki's influence in the Horn of Africa?"]

Afwerki signed a security tripartite agreement in 2018 with former Somali President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmajo and Ethiopian Prime Minister Abi Ahmed Ali. [...]

Abiy's attack in the region was also linked to some of the Somali troops sent by Farmajo to Asmara for training. [...]

Omar Mahmood, an expert on the International Crisis Group for Somalia, said the agreement is now "bilateral" at its best, if not dead.

"Although Hassan Sheikh does not want to distance himself from Eritrea, I agree that Isaias has lost a friend in Mogadishu," said Tobias Hagmann, a professor of international relations at Roskilde University in Denmark. [...]

Farmajo's defeat was welcomed by Kenya, which has repeatedly clashed with his administration.
