Ethiopia has been very hostile in dealing with Somaliland under the new PM.
He has done a 180 degree turn on his predecessor who had good plans for Berbera. He has closed Somaliland office in Addis he does not want to deal with Somaliland directly however he wants to deal with farmajo.
We need a new plan and show Ethiopian we are not completely reliant on them. After all in politics there is no such things as permanent allies however each nation has its own motive and works closely with those who share the same interests. Right now Ethiopia and Somaliland don’t have the same interest. We should
1. Ban khat imports from Ethiopia and start using Kenya instead
2. Ban fruit and veg import from Ethiopia and grown our own instead
3. Shut down Ethiopia office in hargeisa
4. Mass deportations of all oromo from Somaliland
5. Stop Ethiopian airlines coming to hargeisa
PS Ethiopia and Eritrea have agreed to jointly develop the port of Assab

That all it takes.
And you will be bankrupt...its where the sl gvt makes most of its money! U make much more money with oromo khat than the kenyan!
U cant wrestle with ethiopia...geostrategy is at work! Berbera with djibouti is always natural port for oromo region.
Let the competition play.
