@@shafsteryellowEthiopia is not starting anything, Somaliland doesn’t want anything to do with Somalia
@@Liiloowe Typical lier frm the failed state of Somalia, ethiopia never intervened somalia they entered agreement with Somaliland which’s an independent state just like UAEdid with Somaliland so keep envy towards Somaliland’s success as usual, simple as that
Pre 1960 Somaliland and Somalia were two separate States received their independence from Britain and Italy. Hence the two independence dates throughout the entire history. 30 years later in 1991 Somaliland decided (through a national referendum) to become a separate State. This is the background the Speakers are missing
Bulshit Somaliland is part of Somalia 🇸🇴
Well said
Independence and joint the two states which one was last, then independence is invalid cuz you voluntarily joined another state then you do not have choice
Of course, we have a choice. We had a choice to join and we had a choice to leave, and leave we did! Slavery was abolished a long time ago. Every human on earth has a choice. A GOD-GIVEN CHOICE AND RIGHT. @@abdinur74
This is doublespeak, no one addresses the elephant in the room. Tribalism, groupish and ignorance is the the mentality of most somali people, so it's no love lost between the two nations. The Shariah and justice is a prerequisite for peace for reconciliation of both nations. For now let's not fan the flame for war. Let each nation run it's own business at hand and keep the negotiations going in order to foster peace.
It's nice. No matter what, I hope ET find a peaceful way to have a port. 👍
No matter what? non of your thing
Never ever
Day dreaming
I wonder why even Africans don't support a cooperation b/n two Africans countries.
Somaliland had agreement with USA, UAE and Taiwan but no body said a word. when it comes an African Country it looks like everybody is against it.
As Somalilanders Ethiopia is our best friend and Somalis are our brothers. We need to eradicate the hostility phopia between Somalians and Ethiopians, this hostility is based on old uncivilized ideas.
Europians once was hostile monarchs each other, when they forget thier hostility the conquered whole the world.
Somaliland is rule by SNM terrorists and it's not rule in a democratic system as you would like to portray
Great words
You’re not Somali you oromo
There is nothing called Somaliland and Ethiopia is our enemy we will fight if they try to came Saylac
I’m sure you are not somali never Talk like Somalilander
CGTN should take a neutral stand. Why don't you invite some analysts who can give you a detailed brief and facts. These professors are biased plus lacks some historical references. Thank you
You have the most spledid understanding to notice such disgraceful biases and hates towards to the people of Ethiopia. Those are not even real intellictuals but gluttonous individuals that are even dying to fill their bellies for pennies from their former colonial pockets.
What do they lack ? Who should they invite? Does Ethiopia have capable analyst other than storytellers ? Btw, Ethiopia is collapsing before our own eyes.
No Somali Bias.
@@stephanieadams9702 You mean rising? If all countries all over the world start collapsing, Ethiopia will be the last one not to coz its foundation is built on the rock that can not be easily ruined; Therefore, sorry my brother to tell nothing but the truth kkkkk
@@stephanieadams9702Ethiopia is rising that is why they are nervous and throwing whatever they can on the unstoppable. Ethiopia is the fastest growing economy in Africa in 2024 despite war. Ethiopia is opening the first stock exchange which is expected to boost the GDP by over 20%. Ethiopia is finishing up the largest and 3rd largest dam in Africa this year. Ethiopia's deal with Somaliland will guarantee cheaper logistical expenses. Ethiopia joining BRICS... Ethiopia's future is bright under our beloved PM
They are ok with turkey 🇹🇷 to build navy and military base in Somalia but they are mad about neighboring Ethiopia 🇪🇹
Yes, you have already Ogaden given to you by the British Colonial and you torture our people we cannot allow another part of Somalia to take special our seaports and ocean. Turcky is a law-bidding government your government is not
Well, first, Turkey came to Somalia with the formal Somali invitation. 2nd, unlike Ethiopia, Turkey doesn't have an ill intentioned agenda of dividing Somalia and establishing a military base, which then it will engolf the other parts of Somalia. Lastly, Turkey didn't invade and control a part of Somalia and call it Ethiopia.
Ethiopia not want war. Want prosperity
No it's not externalizing it's mandatory to have port for us.
The man of Uganda is missing reading Ethiopia and somaliland
Thanks for reporting on this issue. Hearing African scholars' perspectives provides an amazing and diverse outlook on this matter . I want to highlight a crucial point: the vast majority of the people in Somaliland do not support this MoU. Not only does it lack a strong legal foundation, but it also goes against the will of the Somali people, wherever they may be.
For your surprise, most Ethiopians don't support this deal. We don't even take it as serious. Abiy Ahmed is proved to be useless and no one takes him serious internally. In fact, he took our country to a wrong way, catastrophic civil war and now to another round of war with our neighbouring countries. He is trying to redirect the internal resistance from the Amhara Fano fighters temporarily. He will nullify the deal himself. Mark my word.

Vast majority?😂 is there figures for this or are you guessing
如果埃塞俄比亚获得港口 这对中国也有利，因为中国是向埃塞俄比亚出口大量产品的国家
@@selemonbeyene2035 Ethiopia has strategically chosen Djibouti as its port, leveraging the transportation infrastructure, including a train built by China for efficient goods movement. This highlights China's robust engagement in these endeavors, I can assure you China is not missing on any deals there. lol
On the other hand, Ethiopia's actions is a violation of Somalia’s sovereignty and the territorial integrity, and China has clearly expressed its disapproval by supporting Somalia in this matter.
It's worth investigating Ethiopia's debt to China. One might question whether their priority should be repaying the debt rather than engaging in regional conflicts. Perhaps China should reconsider investing in a country displaying such imprudent and reckless behavior. What do you think?
Thanks for this valuble and informative episode about the Ethioia-Somaliland port deal keep the gems coming.
😂😂
A win-win deal for both counties. Congratulations to both Somaliland and Ethiopia!
It sad to see that we Africans have such short sighted profs and geopolitical analysts with lack of enough information and really is an embarrassment.
@belyahu, pray tell us what short sighted thoughts were presented, what information was missing? Blanket statements just shows your lack of understanding of the issue...or should I say lack of who you are😂😂😂.

You discussed something is not possible. This is same if Jigjiga-Ethiopia makes deal to Somalia without Federal government.
So please don't waste your time, no country can take land and sea for his power. It is 2024 and If Ethiopia try to this, we will fight until the last one.

For far too long, Ethiopians, and other Africans have been tirelessly working to bring peace and stability to Somalia since 1990. However, despite the people of Somaliland building an advanced democratic system and a state-like structure that offers great prospects for peaceful coexistence and cooperation with neighbors, they are still isolated from the international community, resulting in unnecessary suffering and bloodshed. It is time to recognize Somaliland's independence and grant them the recognition they deserve to fulfill their aspirations for statehood. The people of Somaliland are wise, forward-thinking, and well-versed in international diplomacy, and they can no longer wait indefinitely for peace and stability to prevail in the rest of Somalia. It is high time for the international community to support their progress and allow them to experience social and economic growth. Ethiopia on the other hand needs access to the sea to assure economic progress for its huge and expanding population of over 120 million which is vital for the regional stability.
well said
By the way you are talking, you are probably Ethiopian and you don't know much about what you are talking about. If you really think Ethiopia can just get and have a sea port just like that your are not very intelligent. Do you know the history between the two countries? Do you know that Ethiopia have a very big region who is somalis who really don't wanna be part of Ethiopia more than somaliland don't wanna be part of somalia. Do you know that somalis hates Ethiopia more than any country on earth even the people of Somaliland who majority of them are against this agreement not only will somalia fight against Ethiopia, somaliland, Djibouti even the somali region in Ethiopia will fight Ethiopia and I mean every single one. The somalis that hate Ethiopia most are somali Ethiopians. So even if this agreement goes through. Are Ethiopia ready never ending war from every corner? Cause that's what's going to happen and this somaliland you are talking about doesn't exist. Somaliland have been in civil war last 11 months. A big part of it is gone back to Somalia and there is still a war another part which is where the sea port is located don't wanna be part of so call somaliland. If you say somaliland is a democracy you dont Jack shit it is a dictatorship. I am from there believe me I know. It's only one clan that always have the power since 1991 and everyone else is nothing to them. I don't know what will happen with this agreement but I know one thing and that is the horn of africa just started a never ending war. Somalia got nothing to lose, they have been in war last 40 years and Ethiopia is in a civil war as we speak and it just got worse
Stop the lie
He should stabilise his fragile country if Somalia stops the support it gives it will sure collapse Ethiopia.
O dear!
Regardless of our wisdom and whether it is a fact that countries were trying to help Somalia, where is the advanced democratic system that we have built? Do you know how many years our election is delayed? How many were killed in Hargaysa when they were demonstrating against this delay?
British Somali land is now 3 to 4 different states with 75% of them applying to be recognised by the Somali Federal Government as a member state. Do I need to name them? No for you, but for those you are misleading SSC-KHATUMO is already gone and is recognised by the government, Awdal state and Guban state (Gadabuursi and Issa tribes respectively) are already underway after Precedent Bihi's recent madness suggesting giving their land to Abey, and the forth within the Garhajis state if who are the majority sub tribe of Bihi's own tribe, but have been side lined for over a quarter of a century, if elections are not held ASAP.
Also where is the well-versed diplomacy? I have been monitoring the media around the world and found most of those who think SL differently to largely have false information such as democracy, peaceful, being different than other Somalis, abandoning the unity which they created willingly and having borders. Or is it exchanging ethiopian airplane revenue that could be at a loss with a quarter of the area of Somalia you are claiming!
The world would not even listen to you if they know that the reason you are signing that area for few handouts is that it belongs to Issa and Samaroon tribes not the main Isxaaq tribe!
Sorry for being tough on you, but take it as a brotherly slap to safe you from your own fulish actions that will result you being killed and your women owned by......
My massage to you and precedent Bihi is look inwards and ask our billionaires to start a better and more advanced Airline (call it Bihi airline if you wish) and ask them to give you 20, 30, 40, and even 49% without giving away our resources and bringing suffering to our families. GOOD BUSINESS IDEA EEEEEH.

It's worth considering the presence of military bases in Djibouti by countries like China, the USA, Japan, and others. Given that Ethiopia is a Horn of African country, would it be unreasonable for Ethiopia to have access to the sea and establish a military base in Somaliland? Ethiopia's intention is not to provoke conflict with its neighbors, but rather to seek peaceful access to the sea. Let's focus on the potential benefits of such access, rather than jumping to conclusions about war.
So nice comment!
Then go to djibouti, here in Somalia we dont do that pulshit
Be as it may. It has to be in peace with the people of Somalian. You cannot sustain or force an agreement onto another nation.
@TruthNeverHurt462,
Regarding the issue of Somaliland, I must assert that it is indeed a settled matter. Your influence in this regard is limited and inconsequential. Allow me to remind you that it is our military that is steadfastly safeguarding what you refer to as the "failed government" in Mogadishu. Our military personnel are making great sacrifices, even laying down their lives, to shield your populace from the perils posed by the terrorist organization Al-Shabaab.
@etsegenetnegash
As far as my understanding goes, Ethiopia has not enforced any agreement upon any country, including Somaliland. To the best of my knowledge, the agreement between Ethiopia and Somaliland is based on mutual benefits for both nations. I would like to ask you whether you believe Ethiopia is imposing this agreement forcefully upon Somaliland and its people?
Somaliland is a Country Horn of Africa 🌍 ❤️🤍💚 ✌️

Talk about what will happen to Somalia. If ethiopia and somaliland benefits? What is the problem?
People who are making lots of noise are negative forces who are politically motivated who want to see a depressed and weak Ethiopia.😏 Which law bans this type of deal?!!!
In 2016 when somaliland and UAE entered a bilateral agreement to expand berbera port but somalia said the deal is null and void however, deal was reached and berbera port was developed as a first class port. Therefore, I would like to remained everyone somaliland was the 5th African state to get independence and first in the horn Africa so technically somaliland is an independent and it can make or enter deals with any country in the world as they did before. Secondly, the agreements reached by somaliland and Somalia during their talks held in Ankara, djibouti there was a clause states that both parties that is somaliland and Somalia should not critize any economical developments but somalia has breached agreements mentioned above not once, or twice. Thirdly, the former somalia president farmajo had leased 4 somaliland's ports to Ethiopia without somaliland's consent and to make the matter worse somalia's incubent president hasan reached an agreement with Addis in December 2023 and gave the same 4 ports to Ethiopia and also c9llaborated with Eritrea to train melitia to distabilize la anod which was a violation of somaliland's territorial integrity which the AU and the world recognize it since 1960.
Xòolo 😂
What is the noises now Somali land been on its own for 33 years
One very important fact in favior of such Somaliland-Ethiopia deal is the fact that unity of Somalia is not the same like the unity , for example , of Ghana or Kenya . Ghana or Kenya is not made up of two entities that recieved two seperate indepedences and the voluntarily united . Somaliland and Somali are two former seprate colnies that , after seprate independence , went into a failed union . So this two falling apart is not like Ghana falling apart. In fact an African Union fact-finding mission in 2005 declared that the of Somaliland is unique case , not a seceding region
We welcome Ethiopia in Somaliland

Somaliland has already done international agreement with several other countries in the world,why not our neighbor country ethiopia that we share a common border? example:
-The UAE and SOMALILAND strong bilateral relationship.
-USA-Somaliland Partnership Act already signed.
-The Taiwan somaliland partnership.
Somalilanders are going forward and welcoming every exchange business, ready to help each other for a better future,make effort for security co-operation.
-This agreement support Ethiopian policy focused on the red sea corridor
-Support trade and development between Somaliland and Ethiopia.
-Facilitation the distribution of Humanitarian assistance in the Horn of Africa.
-Enfance cooperation on counter-trafficking,including the trafficing of humans, wildlife, weapons,and illicit goods.
Bye bye Banana republic of Somalia-italiana.

The Somali governmet signed that of. Somaliland cant do it because they are not a government. You cant sign an international legally binding agreement with a country wich doesnt exist. Learn the law my brother.

Does anyone know what happened to the recently build train line from Addis Ababa to Djibuti? I thought that was supposed to serve as Ethiopia's link to the sea.
Yes, it is working, but Djibouti is charging a lot and blocking some items such as defense items. Americans and French control everything coming in and out. Djibouti is a tiny country where 75 % reside in Deredwa ( ethiopian nearby city) during summer listening colonialists. Djibouti can't live a day without Ethiopia. Here is the thing they want to enjoy Ethiopia, but they don't like sharing the port and making it expensive
If you have any legality that state Somaliland and Somalia union is valid please share as the international legal system state that the union between Somaliland and Somalia is not only questionable but legally invalid.
African need to recognize Somaliland. It was a country who exist before Somalia 35 countries of the world recognized 1960. Let’s not forget that Somaliya a genocide against Somaliland 1988That’s decision that make to go back what we used to be before we unite with Somaliy. for the last 33 years, we showed the world how to build a government that is a democratic that don’t exist in Africa. We achieve a lot of success that no one can deny for Somaliland. And no one can’t stop us now.
Anyway at some point in their history , in 1964 at Cairo , Africans agreed that the colonial borders are to be their legitimate country-defyning lines . Well , in that case Somaliland sits within such legitimate borders
As Somaliland am not sure about this deal yet but need RECOGNITION as main point of contract this and all need to peace prosperous all of us as Africa whole.

Well done Somaliland/Ethiopia.
Somaliland became independent before Somalia . Somaliland recived full independence from Britain on 26June 1960 . Somalia became independent later in July 1960 . Therefore the case of Somaliland is not secession but a withdrawal from a failed union

The analysis by Mulongo is myopic and distortionist.
Recognition is apolitical decision vested with sovereign states.
Recognition of Somaliland does not open a pandora box because its based on colonial borders as at 1960 and the self determination and unique circumstances should be taken into account.

Ethiopia is starting this destabilising acts
Dr Abiy’s government is playing with fire. Somalia and Ethiopia were at war in 1970s over the Ogaden region where Somali Ethnic people live within Ethiopia. Also in 2006 the TPLF regime under instructions by the US invaded Somalia and killed thousands of people and displaced millions. The TPLF regime also killed thousands of Somalis in the Ogaden region of Ethiopia. These wounds are still raw and people are very angry with Ethiopia. if Ethiopia goes ahead with the plan Somalia will take military action against Ethiopia which is battling with internal conflict in the Oromo and Amhara regions. Egypt, Eritrea and Turkey are supporting Somalia. There could be serious consequences for Ethiopia here including the risk of disintegration and all out war just like what is happening in Sudan.

The determination of people must comes first without using war as a means of subjugation ,if there is unique historical background to be considered at this modern time. Africans must worry first how to grow mutually rather than promoting colonial agenda which might be emerged in different names this time.

Somaliland aspire to see increased cooperation on issues of common interest between African states to foster greater economic integration, and closer security cooperation.
Already some major African players are taking a new look at Somaliland,that state on the strategic Horn of Africa.

Good interview
Somalia was an Italian colony
Somaliland was a British colony, they both gained there "independence" in different times.
The unification of Sengal-Gambia, Egypt-Syria, and Somaliland-Somalia was withdrawn.
The deal between Somalia and Somaliland was never ratified by the AU or UN.
If the European colonisers divided your house into two you would advocate for it as well right? These fake lines weren’t made by GOD but foreigners who wanted to divide and rule hence why they broke the Somali people’s lands into five.
Not long. And too much ....

Africa needs 🤔 Wise leaders. Not a smart PHD holder from upbroad.
@@Land_of_Puntwe agree with those lines, and want nothing to do with Somalia. So yes

Somaliland has legitimate documents & rightful claim to Sovereign independence more than Eritrea or SouthSudan.

Self-determination denotes the legal right of people to decide their own destiny in the international order. Self-determination is a core principle of international law, arising from customary international law, but also recognized as a general principle of law, and enshrined in a number of international treaties.
Somaliland have right to self determination
The people in Somaliland have rejected this deal with Ethiopia and many people have expressed their anger about this decision some of the government officials have resigned from their positions including minister of Defense and so on.

It’s time for an independence referendum.
Why do some educated individuals from Africa display such bewildering behavior, leaving me speechless? Was the international maritime law flawlessly crafted, considering African representation? Are these laws genuinely intended to benefit African nations? Let's acknowledge that all laws, whether international or local, have their flaws, so let's avoid idealizing them. Instead of dwelling on problems and adopting a pessimistic stance, my African brothers and sisters, let's actively contribute to solutions and maintain an optimistic outlook. While past mindsets may have deemed unity impossible for many African leaders and literate individuals, we should, at the very least, aim for cooperation, support, and peaceful coexistence to prosper together.
In my opinion this media is invested by Landlocked stated, Ethiopia knows somali people, Abiy and his yes man Muse will not take one inch of somalia sea. SOMALIA is not TPLF.
Eritrea and Somalia Give Africa coast to arebs( Turkey, Saudi,)west and China to depoloy there millitery but oppose African countries like Ethiopia not to use the coast.Go Ethiopia and Somaliland, the true African.
If Ethiopia needs to have access like the other countries that you mentioned, it has to change its approach. Instead of threatening rhetoric, they can work diplomatically to achieve it
@@redae3365What is more diplomatic than MoU?
am not worry l know God lord Jesus Christ with Ethiopian country Ethiopia very strong country 💪💪💪💪
and the lord of Jesus christ, Allah is with Somalia.. christianity is a dying religion Islam is alive
Jesus who? Can't do nothing about Somali,s border Jesus is our friend not who you think,
I pray we can work things out and come together as one with peace and blessing
Somalia is a fail state and on the other hand somaliland is progressing patnering with other countries.keep going never look back. Viva somaliland 🎉🎉🎊🎊🎉🎆🎇
Somalia is not a “failed state” that’s where you’re wrong. Somaliland is secessionist issaq facist entity many people in Somaliland oppose this 32 years since you’re called “independence” with no recognition Somalia is progressing country and are defeating al shabab. Viva Somalia 😜😜😜😜
@tjmirez7556 keep dreaming when you wake up let me know 🤣😅🤣🤣🤣 but just know somaliland is taking steps towards its achievements.
Somaliland is a strategic place in the Red Sea
It is free country
What Ethiopia is doing is no less than breach of somali sovereignty. Ethiopia has access to the sea via Djibouti and is a share holder in the Berbera port. Somaliland tecognition is by Ethiopia is violation of global and international law, the African Union laws and the East African law.
I just don’t understand our brothers and sisters in Somalia. What does denying the existence of Somaliland accomplish? Furthermore how is it able to stop this deal between Somaliland and Ethiopia. This desire by these people who to want to see the annihilation of Somaliland also is baffling if not also diabolically sinister in its intent. Not at all in line with Islamic ideals and values right but hypocrisy abounds and I digress.
What happened to the partnership between Essayas and Abiy ?
Somaliland is free country since 1991
This move of Abiy Ahmed will expose all the atrocities he's doing inside the county
Relationship between Ethiopia and somaliland ages since the 1800? 😳😳😳😳 how can you lie like this
Facts: not to confuse Somaliland is not a part of Somalia-italiana.
Somaliland is not a clan based secessionist state far from it, Somaliland was established as
a nation state on 26th June 1960,
when it gained its independence
from Great Britain.
Its borders
have the same international status and legitimacy as those of
other African and Asian countries, which were drawn by European Colonial powers.
In 1960 Somaliland went
into “union” with Somalia-italiana.
The
“union” was legally suspect under the international law:
The people of Somaliland overwhelmingly
rejected the Union Constitution
when it was put to a national referendum in 1961.
The “Union” was never legally ratified by the people
of Somaliland.
In 2001, in a national
referendum the people of Somaliland overwhelmingly approved
the decision to re-establish their
sovereignty 97% For the Somaliland republic.
The people of Somaliland exercised their right to
self-determination and brought to
an end the union of the two
states
The so-calle. Somaliland is a fantasy project. It was formed by SNM terrorists rebels in 1991. It's a democratic system as it would like to portray. Sool and Sanag will be a province fought for their freedom against SNM terrorists and are now free. It's only a matter time before Awdal will free itself.
Thanks you so much.
You’re wrong Somaliland is a clan based secessionist clan based region many people in “Somaliland” don’t agree and want a United Somalia

Somaliland's supperficy is bigger then 83 recognized country 176120KM.
Somaliland has also strategic a 850-kilometres coastline guards the approach to the Bab-el-Mandeb,at red sea chokepoint.
Somaliland has already determined to establish and consolidate its statehood,Own Currency, Passport, Flag,army,and absolutely doesn't want to be part of Somalia-italiana.
-Somalia-italiana population has suffered for 33 years and there is not end in sight, they need peace and life and respect neighbor, Somaliland Republic sovereignty.
What's new in this happy new year 2024 is:
-Some major African players are taking a new look at Somaliland, that state on the strategic Horn of Africa.
Somaliland it is a region of Somalia and they cannot sign any agreement that takes place and we are not accept colonial abuse
What you dont know is that somaliland was a free countery but united with somaliitaliano in 1960.

Many thanks all, especially Prof. David Onsireo for your rationally and morally viable analysis. Let's, we all Africans, solve our problems ourselves through peaceful mean as to avoid the external manipulation that kept us in a war cycle generations after generations. But one thing I can't pass by without mentioning is that the journalist seems to be so biased in which she tends to support Somalia side only. Oh, our people, you can't imagine for a country like Ethiopia with huge population and immense economic demand without access to the sea, that she even lost unfairly within the very recent years, 30yrs. We need to be as fair as we will be as to when the issues will be merely ours. Anyway, we need to stick to the principal saying, "Divided we fall, but United we stand!" The other is, I would love all of us to listen to Prof. Lumumba's wise speeches in this regards. Thanks!
Mr. Mulongo, where did you get from that Ethiopia declared to gain access to the Red Sea even by force?! You distorted what PM Dr. Abiy Ahmed said for some purpose, leave alone the signing of the MOU was a mutual peaceful agreement. Also, this panel doesn't discuss the reasons for the aspiration of Somaliland due to the massacre and genocide by the state of Somalia in 1980's. Where the world powers have occupied the eastern Africa with military bases and maritime control right on doorsteps of Ethiopia, why everyone is against the Ethiopian aspiration to gain back access to the Red Sea!?
A man from capala didn't understand issue ! Before 1920 Somaliland and Ethiopia were the same country but we are not forcing them to become one country but we make MoU to work together (business dell)
That is not true if you are a historian what do you know about the origine of the name abbasiniya whivh language is drived from.
You are either not serious or just delusional. Somaliland was part of Ethiopia? Must be the dumbest thing I have ever heard.
OROMO PROPAGANDA
Ethiopian and Somaliland never were in one country! We share no language or religion or culture! We are Somali and we don't want anything to do with Ethiopia
Somaliland is never been part of Somalia. a country with its own army, constitution, police, international borders and its own government. that is what Ethiopian did. Ethiopia has a strong responsibility to keep Somalia as a country and has been protecting the security of Somali citizens under AMISOM for many years and still has more than 30000 soldiers in Somalia. Somaliland continues to be independent country and it is good for the stability of the red sea and the sea of Eden. and why is Somaliland added to the destroyed country? the Ethiopian navy brings peace for the red sea and the sea of Eden.
😂😂 It's always has been Somalia... ALL somali ancestral land is Somalia.
Ethiopia has intervened in the land of Somalia and dreamed of swimming in the sea of Somalia.

Ethiopia historically has had access. What makes anyone think she won't have it again. Unification of the region is ideal for peace, security, and prosperity.
kinda too late for that, its 2024
Ethiopia thinks it is an empire and can annex another country territory by breaking international law...watch how Ethiopia falls apart after this because Somalia is a nation of warriors! A huge chunk of Ethiopia is Somali inhabited that borders Somalia
Great reporting. Love the questions by anchor.
My two cents...
1. Somaliland gained its independence and recognition before Somalia.
2. Somaliland is the one united with Somalia for the purpose of uniting all 5 Somalis.
3. After the genocide JSL took back their unity from Somalia.
4. Somaliland rebuilt their nation from the ashes with no help from anyone including Somalia that wants to claim them.
4. For 33 years, they govern themselves and become a democratic nation while Somalia turned into a divided failed state where the president has zero control over some parts of Somalia and he can't even visit these parts.
5. Somaliland now enjoys peace, prosperity, and democracy.
6. The need for recognition is great, very deserved and their basic right as country.
7. Somaliland gaining recognition will also benefit Somalia and the stability of all of horn of Africa.
8. Most of the conflict in Somalia will cease to exist when Somaliland is recognized.
9. After the recognition of Somaliland both Somalia and Djibouti will gain an ally.
10. Finally all three countries can promote their common interest in peace and prosperity.
Somaliland got independence 5 days earlier than Somalia in 1960 but got united but unfortunately the marriage couldn't work bcos of atrocities meted on somaliland populations by Somalia.Somaliland had to forcefully regain it's independence.❤ you from Kenya 🎉
The problem is Abiye Ahmed ,not Ethiopians !!
Don’t forget the 7000 Ethiopian soldiers who are sacrificed their life in Somalia .
So Ethiopians aren’t the enemy of Somalians It is Abiye Ahmed who are a blood thirsty here at home and ..
