Having said that, this govt is running away from the ikhwan stigma like the relationship with sisi though our relationship with egypt is strategic regardless of who rules but morsi had offered better where he gives us the weapons and qatar funds it, this was reached in doha summit

Its the west who supports the govt bc of hassan sheeikh and CRD, abdulqadir yahye AUN but now they r worry of the vision2016 bc of the ideological group that's behind him

"However, President Hassan Sheikh has taken a robust interpretation of his mandate, which donors have tended to countenance – seeing in his civil society background a potential partner with whom they could work, and who would mark a significant departure from the domination of politics by former warlords under the TFG.

Moreover, the constitutional mandate of the premier quickly brought Abdiweli (like his predecessor Abdi Farah Shirdon) into conflict with the presidency, and with the Damul Jadid faction of al-Islah (Somalia’s Muslim Brotherhood), which backed Hassan Sheikh’s presidential bid." Chatham

For UAE, they think the govt being an ikhwan regime and don't trust her though at the moment they signed a security cooperation with the govt(in reality with the gernarals)

Saudi is better they r more worry of shia activities in somalia.

It makes sense for the UAE to oppose Daesh. Daesh is destabilizing the region and could potentially undermine UAE's world class economy. And of course UAE is partnering with Kenya. Kenya is a country that is stable, with a growing economy and influence on the continent. Somalia is the street urchin of Africa. It doesn't matter that Somalis worship Allah, nobody needs an economically destitute, politically corrupt parasite as an ally.

It doesn't stop Somali politicians, and their supporters, from believing they're a regional superpower.

How do you see the Turkish and Kenyan relations getting stronger ties considering this article. Do you think Turkey's foreign policy is dictated by who controls Kismayo or the participation of the KDF forces in Jubada Hoose? Borther, Nations have no permanent friends or foes but they do have permanent interests. Somalia should dip in every bucket and take advantage of the regional Arab and Muslim disputes.

Kenya and Turkey forge stronger ties

NAIROBI, Kenya - Kenya and Turkey are looking into ways of enhancing trade and bilateral relations between the two countries.

Turkey has identified Kenya as an important gateway to Africa and is closely engaging both the government and the business community with its sights set on investment and other trade opportunities in Kenya and the region. In less than a year, there have been two business delegations from Turkey to Kenya, just highlighting the growing interest.

Discussions for cementing this relationship took centre stage during the just concluded Second Africa-Turkey Partnership Summit held at the West African capital of Equatorial Guinea.

The summit brought together African Heads of State and Government and high ranking Turkish officials led by none other than the country’s president Recep Tayyid Erdogan.

The Kenyan delegation to the conference was led by Kenya’s Foreign Secretary and Minister for International Trade Amina Mohamed.

Themed “New Model of Partnership for the Strengthening of Sustainable Development and Integration,” the summit deliberated the progress of the Africa-Turkey Partnership since the First Africa-Turkey Summit which was held in Istanbul, in April 2008 with participation of 49 countries.

The highlight of the summit was the adoption of the Joint Implementation Plan of Africa-Turkey Partnership for the period 2015-2018. The Joint Implementation Plan focuses on the execution of key projects identified as priority areas of cooperation between African countries and Turkey.

The key projects are drawn from the main areas of cooperation which include trade and investment, agriculture, health, peace and security, infrastructure development and tourism. She said the co-operation between Africa and Turkey will facilitate the realization of Africa’s Agenda 2063 and the Post 2015 Development Agenda.
