With regard to the reservations made by the Federal Republic of Somalia upon ratification:

       “The Government of Romania has carefully examined the reservations made by the Federal Republic of Somalia to the Convention on the Rights of the Child and considers that they are incompatible with the object and purpose of the Convention. Moreover, having an undefined character and invoking general principles of its internal law, these reservations are contrary to the rules of the international law.

       Therefore, the Government of Romania objects to the reservations made by the Federal Republic of Somalia to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

       This objection shall not preclude the entry into force of the Convention in its entirety between the Romania and the Federal Republic of Somalia”
