From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mohamed El-Amine Souef (born 1961) is a Comorian diplomat and former foreign minister. He first became foreign minister in 1999, following the military coup of Azali Assoumani. He resigned briefly in January 2002, along with Assoumani, to make way for a transitional government, but he was reappointed a few months later when Assoumani won elections and regained power. He lost his post again in July 2005 during a cabinet reshuffle. After the reshuffle, Souef was named Ambassador to the United Nations.
