In the case of the latter, NKC African Economics said its size \u201cexceeds that of all other foreign armies in Cabo Delgado,\u201d which \u201cdemonstrates the country\u2019s intention to dominate force operations.<\/p>\n<p>The consultancy hopes that \u201ccompetition between forces\u201d will not hinder the achievement of peace, as \u201cthe expansion of the insurgency beyond Mozambique\u2019s borders is a possibility\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, the analysts consider that stability in Cabo delgado cannot be achieved with \u201ca mission based solely on military control\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is one of the poorest regions in one of the poorest countries and, as we have said before, the deployment must be complemented by socio-economic support. We do not believe that a sustainable level of stability can be achieved until the poverty patterns of the residents are addressed,\u201d they concluded.<\/p>\n<p>Armed groups have terrorised Cabo Delgado province since 2017, with some attacks claimed by the extremist group Islamic State.<\/p>\n<p>There are more than 3,100 deaths, according to the ACLED conflict registration project, and more than 817,000 displaced people, according to Mozambican authorities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
