2 points@galbeedi Somaliland Wins: 1. Somaliland demanded that for the talks to go ahead, they should not be left to Somalis alone in a meeting room. Rather, the IC community needs to be there as mediators and guarantors of the agreements. This has been checked [tick] 2. Somaliland demanded the talks be held as equals Somaliland and Somalia This has been checked [tick] 3. Somaliland demanded the talks must be between representatives of Somalia (what used to be Ex-Italians Somalia) and Somaliland. Checked [Ticked] -------------------------------- The following are still being discussed ... 4. Implement of previous agreements Somaliland says all the previous agreements need to be implemented before any serious talks can be opened about other more important issues. Somalia wants preconditions for those agreements. The mediators are on the side of Somaliland. As also tweeted by Turkish Ambassador, when he questioned about the faith of previous agreements. 5. Agreement on debt relief and World Bank/IMF new loans Somaliland is aware how the agreement between Somaliland/Somalia regarding the Airspace was one of the reasons why the UN ICAO handed over the Airspace back to Somali hands. However the Somalia Government backtracked from implementing the agreement. Considering that history of dishonesty from Mogadishu, any agreement with regards to WorldBank/IMF etc, will strong concessions on Mogadishu side attached to it. Whether Mogadishu walks away or not, that is not our issue.

1 pointSomali Bantu and Somali Cushitic Situation | Medium MEDIUM.COM Somali Bantu and Somali Cushitic Situation There is an interesting history of the Bantus and the Cushitic people in Somalia. For centuries, the Somali Bantu and the Somali Cushitic lived in Somaliland harmoniously. At the time, they lived in different regions. The Bantu occupied the southern part of Somalia, while their counterparts, the Cushitic group, occupied central and northern Somalia. The land was peaceful, as no group interfered with the affairs of the other. Still, each group defended their territory and could even help one another in times of need. In their subgroups, they governed themselves for many generations.

1 pointMuxuu yidhi doqonkii: Maxaad igaga Faan faani Beriba waan Halaabiye. Before I start the article , Somalis back home and around the globe all agree that a single tribe in northern Somali could not break up the republic. Period. Now, the main question is how this summit was suddenly moved to the express lane and moved to Djibouti? It seems Mr. Omar Ghelle was trying to be irrelevant in Djibouti again . He contacted ambassador Yamamoto and Abiy Ahmed without preparing the necessary requirements to bring the two sides together. Also, Muuse Biixi was looking badly needed cash since Covid-19 lock down kept away the state within the Somali state (The NGO) to provide their largess as usual. For Gheelle, it was simple. When a dictator overstays and rules over 22 years, he might think that every uprising could be the one that could finish him off for good. The last uprising was not instigated by the opposition or a grieving sub clan but a public outcry across Djibouti. Usually , before any major reconciliation summit takes place, technical committees pave the road and discuss the outstanding issues and leave the major sticking points to the leaders. Here in Djibouti, the summit failed the first day before delegates entered to the major points. Cumar Ghelle tried to save face by creating toothless committees to discuss the issues the second day. .. Both Abiy and Farmaajo were shocked when the unstable Muuse Biixi read the wrong statement at the conference. Before the summit started Cumar Gheelle made major mistakes by pushing some of the illogical demands of Muse Biixi including the exclusion of northern politicians in Mogadishu and those who hail from Puntland. Furthermore, Turkey and AU were also missing for same reason or another. W Somaliland demanded not to politicize aid (cash), share air space , fulfil all previous commitments and so on.. Unlike the earlier reports of mine which quoted a member of Farmaajo delegation, the Somali delegation was unprepared. Yet , having the legitimate power of the Somali state, they were confident to recuperate any mishaps. The instability and paranoia of the Somaliland delegation was visible already as soon as the process started. Saleebaan Gaal went to the airwaves and declared the frailer of the summit (Madaxweynaha anaa la joogay oo waa lagu kala tegay). Foreign minister Faratoon tried to correct him and safe face. Dr. Edna flowed and went to her usual rant. At the committee meetings, Somaliland seemed to be getting some concessions from the summit. The federal government accepted everything and wanted only to straighten the unity file by demanding an open society were people should travel without restrictions. That was huge No from the Somaliland delegation. If there was no Berlin wall, the people of east Germany would have abandoned communism long ago, and Somaliland politicians understand that an open society will be detrimental to the false history created for the last three decades. At the end the summit failed and we are back to the status quo. Yet, only a delusional leaders will celebrate the failure of their efforts. It was Somaliland that needed to resolve the air control issue, it was them who badly needed the money to build infrastructure and provide public services with this donor money. It was Somaliland who supposed to gain something and get out of the quagmire and economic stagnation. Yet, in Hargeisa Muuse is celebrating . He is presenting that Somaliland was not swallowed by the Farmaajo and his team including Abiy. For Muuse Biixi, why would you go to a conference without even gaining the minimum requirement? What did Muuse bring back home? nothing. After their refusal, all Farmaajo has to show the so-called international community is that the North doesn't have a capable leadership that could make deals. Although he did not give up anything, Farmaajo too has lost a lot of ground on this fake summit by despot Omar Gheelle. As usual, he is led by the nose by the American ambassador Yamamoto. Why you call yourself a president if you can not even take any major steps without your supervisors?. If the main reason was to get votes from the northern politicians in Mogadishu, Farmaajo is dead duck without knowing. It will be just circling the wagon again without sound leadership. These two men are minor league players who can not pass to the next level. Muuse handraabkii buu dib ugu noqday, qudbadihii Hargeisana halkii ayuu ka wadaa.

1 pointHow many times I told you guys do not debate historical facts with those of us who have PHD in that category. The Wikipedia page says she left Somalia in 1981 and later joined WHO. Why not find out what she was doing from 1969-1981. Go serve the internet. All you will get is generic recycled material. Suldaanka, Ambassador Cawil defected in 1977 as you stated but that wasn't the end of his game. Since Siyaad Barre sidelined many capable military officers in 1969 and surrounded himself and the two dozen or so well trained junior officers joined the Supreme Revolutionary Council. Thus he needed to re-activate the dormant officers who were senior officers before the 1969. He released many from jail including Colonels C/laahi Yusuf and Aideed, and since Cawil was a graduate of Sandhurst elite military college and probably specialized in intelligence, he was called from ambassadorship and asked to serve in the Doolow military zone. . He was carrying military intelligence dossier and rather than join the Doolow unit and cross to Somali Galbeed he defected to Kenya and then proceeded to London. Not only he defected, he held a press conference and accused Siyaad Barre and Somalia for not only instigating war against Ethiopia but also have plans to invade Kenya soon. Yet, in 1978 ambassador Cawil came back to Mogadishu to the surprise of everyone. Everyone thought Cawil will be executed or sentenced a long prison term since he released national secret. Again there was another surprise. He was re-appointed to another ambassadorship and went about to his business. People say he became informant and might have even kidnapped anti government SNM people and others to Mogadishu. THere is more , but now is not the time to rehash all again. Yet, today he is among the loudest critics of South and unification. Listen guys, politics is an art of deception, misrepresentation and on another level an art to make things possible and work with people to make things happen. The main issue here is these people like Dr. Edna and Saleebaan Gaal who are over eighty years old are the past can not be part of the future. Nabad iyo Caano.
