Somaliland agrees to UAE military base in northern port - Washington Post

[Futurist]

Farmaajo needs to call the UAE ambassador and discuss this.

loool and say what exactly? Do general Gabre and BantuSOM need to be on the line too?

Foreign policy and long term treaties are the purview of the federal government. It is more important now because the nature of the two is still unresolved.

Is "federal government" a Euphemism for AMISOM/Kenya/Ethiopia? There is no such thing as a functioning independent federal government. There are only self-serving corrupt men protected by self serving corrupt AMISOM/Kenyan/Ethiopian soldiers.

For now. But nothing is static. And when things improve, this agreement definitely is a short end of the stick.

I agree with X. Playa. The houthis are fighting for the right thing. But we are poor , i am sorry but we have to fight against them . we can even send ruthless Somaliland mercenaries to fight the houthis if the golf countries are willing to pay our troops handsomely. No mercy.

^^ waa yusuf ma naxdide. no we wont send our troops. we will just lease our land and we dont care how uae uses it.

I'm going to have to see all this military/economic aid and training that is promised before I'm on board.

Good news! It's time for SL to join the Geopolitical "Game of Thrones" being played in the region.

Anyways since Trump got elected this next four years will be very difficult for the Persians.It seems SL chose the right side!

That is effectively what AMISOM troops are. They are 'hired hands' or mercenaries paid to do dirty work in Somalia while their governments invest their salaries which are hundreds of millions of dollars into public infrastructure, military hardware and economic development.

appealing deal

but no militry equipment

[KingWaslawi]

^^^^


The military equipment is a secret, no need mention it so people.can see in the media.

[X.Playa]

Why this Berbera corridor every where? it was in the DP deal and now in this. Something fishy there.

[Advo]

From what I am hearing, this agreement was a 2 way deal between Hassan sheikh (who counted on coming back) and Somaliland. Somaliland stands to make $4 million a month plus other deals like road construction etc and Xamar will get $6 million.

^Nonsense

Yeah That Way

Nigga you trippin

[AwRastaale]

Wanlawein will always try to be relevant.

First they will tell you: No you can't do it. No you will never get there.

And when it happens, they be like; Ninyo I was holding your dhalfo. I signed the deal with your dhalfo. I be taking your left nut home but you still have your right one.

Advo above is a perfect example.

These guys can't even sign their own freedom from General Gebre, the real President of the AMISOM peoject.

They telling us the homeless Marehan man will kick him out but we will see who kicks who out.

Now UAE can put pressure on SL in our national talks
