Ankara (Caasimadda Online) – Tan iyo markii xisbigiisa Cadaaladda iyo Horumarka (AKP) ay awoodda la wareegtay sanadkii 2002, madaxweynaha Turkiga Recep Tayyip Erdoğan wali doorasho kuma guuldarreysan, haddii ay ahaan lahayd mid baarlamaan, gobol, madaxweynenimo ama afti. Aragtiyo aan tiro lahayn, haddii ay ahaan lahaayeen kuwo cilmiyeysan ama kuwo kale, ayaa isku dayey in ay sharraxaad ka bixiyaan sababta uu isu bedeli waayey. Mucaaradka Erdoğan, Turki ha ahaadeen ama yeysan ahaan, waxa ay Erdoğan ku eedeeyaan xukunkiisa keli telisnimo ee Islaameenta dal mar ahaan jiray cilmaani. Aragtidooda, Erdoğan waxa uu xabsi geliyey qaran 80 milyan ah. Taas run ma aha Milicsi deg deg ah oo lagu sameeyo xaqiiqooyinka iyo tirada Turkiga ayaa taas sharraxaya sababteeda. Waxaa si cajiib ah isu barbar yaal siyaasadda bulsho ee Turkiga dhexdooda caadiga ah iyo aragtida caalamku ka qabo Islaamiyadda Erdoğan. Waxaa lagu murmi karaa, in Erdoğan dhinac, waxa uu Turkiga caadiga ah arkaan ay tahay marka uu isku arko muraayadda. Waa dhab in Erdoğan ugu guuleystay maalaayiin codad ah mashaariicdiisa waa weyn ee cajiibka ah oo ay ka mid tahay Masjidka weyn ee Istanbul hill; madaarkii saddexaad (oo ka mid ah kuwa ugu waa weyn dunida); waddooyin, jidadka waa weyn, iyo buundooyinka kale ee dhulka Anatolian-ka (Walow ay Turkiga u muuqato shirkadda dhaqaale oo dhismo). Laakiin qofka waa in uu tixgeliyaa muuqaalka bulshada coddeysa. Tirada qoysaska dowladda Erdoğan ka helay dhuxusha bilaashka ah waxa ay 1.1 million ka korortay 2003 iyada oo gaartay 2.15 million 2014. Tani ma war wacan baa mise mid xun? Sare u kaca xad xad dhaafka ahaa ee baahidda qoysaska saboolka ah taas oo muujineysay in malaayiin aysan ku faraxsaneyn dowladnimada Erdoğan. Hadda waa cagsigeeda: Turkidu wey faraxsan yihiin maxaa yeelay waxa ay qoysadkooda u helaan dhuxul bilaash ah. Turkidu waxa ay dhuxusha bilaashka ah iyo arimaha kale ee bulshada ka jecleyn in ay dalkooda ka hirgasho dimoqraadiyad. Turkiga waxa uu kaalinta 155-aad ka galay xoriyadda saxaafadda oo 180 dunida guud ahaan laga qiimeeyey. Ku dhawaad 200 oo wariye ayaa ku jira xabsiyada halka 120 kale ay dunida ka shaqeeyaan – laakiin boqolkiiba lixdan (60%) waxa ay aaminsan yihiin xadidaadda warbaahinta in ay xalaal tahay. Ma daneeyaan xassiloonida gudaha, sidoo kale Turkiga waxa ay 146 kaga jiraan nabadda aduunka. Cel celis ahaan waxaa maalintii lagu dilaa 5.6 dalka, tiradaas waxaa ku jira weeraro argagixiso. Cel celis ahaan waxaa dhaca 18 weerar jireed (Physical attack) oo loo geysto shaqsiyaadka maalintii. Sida laga soo xiganayo cilmi-baaris la sameeyey 2014, boqolleyda 11.3% dadka Turkida ISIS uma arkaan urur argagixiso. Laakiin waagii hore laba sano oo keliya, ISIS waxa ay 304 qof ku dishay 14 weerarro culus ahaa gudaha Turkiga. Dabcan, dhimasho mar walba kuma timaado adeegsiga qoryaha iyo qaraxyada. 10kii sano ee ka horreeyey 2016, 43 kun oo Turki ah waxa ay naftooda ku waayeen shilal baabuur oo halis ahaa. Turkida waxa ay ku noolaayeen xukun deg deg ah tan iyo Luulyo 2016, markaas oo koox ka mid ah saraakiisha Turkiga ay ku sameeyeen dowladda Erdoğan afgebi dhicisoobay. Wixii intaa ka dambeeyey waxaa gaalshiraha loo taxaabay in ka bada 50,000 oo qof, waxaa shaqadii laga eryey 150,000 00 shaqaale rayid ahaa. Wixii ka dambeeyey mashaqadii 12kii Sebteembar, afgembigii ciidamada qalabka sida ee 1980, dadka xarumaha aqoonta xoogga looga eryey waxa ay ku koobneyd 120 laakiin 5,000 aqoonyahanno ka badan ayaa xoog looga eryey kaddib isku daygii afbembi ee dhicisoobay 2016. Xaakimiin sare oo Turki ah ayaa daaha ka rogay in isku darka 6.9 milyan Turki ah, ama ku dhawaad boqolkiiba sagaal (9%) ee bulshada oo dhan in ay ku socoto baaritaan sharci. Aynu darisno waxbarashada. Turkiga, cel celiska dadka wax barta da’doodu waa 6.51 sano. Dadka da’doodu u dhexeyso 18-24, keliya 26% waa lab 18.9% waa deddig. Agoosto 2017-dii hay’adda OECD Regional Well-Being Index waxa ay soo bandhigtay in Turkiga hoos u dhac 362 ah dhinaca waxbarashada uga yimi, keliya 16% Turki da’doodu tahay da’da 18-ka ayaa ka qallin jebiyey jaamacadaha. Tirada Turkida ee raba in ay bartaan imam-nimada ayaa sare ugu kacday 60,000 2002 iyaga oo gaaray 1.2 milyan 2014. Laakiin waa kuma Turkigaaga caadiga ah, adiga oo bulsho ahaan u hadlaya? 74% Turkida waxa ay isu aqoonsan yihiin dad guta dhammaan waajibaadka Islaamka. 95% waxa ay dhahaan waligood fasax uma aadin dibedda, 70% waxa ay dhahaan waligood kama qeybgalin bandhigyo fanned ama dhaqan. 74% waxa ay isku arkaan in ay yihiin hiddo raac asal raac ama asal Islaamiyiin asal raac ah – taas oo ka mid ah sababaha caanka ka dhigtay Erdoğan, gaar ahaan gudaha Turkida asal raaca ah. Xisaab ahaan waxa ay macno u yeeleysaa Erdoğan oo aan qarsan sida uu u neceb yahay isticmaalka khamriga sababo diin awgeed, in uu caan ka yahay dalka halkaas oo 79% dhaha in aysan waligood cabbib khamri (Isticmaalka cabbiska khamriga qofkiiba dalka Turkiga waxa uu ka hooseeyaa 1.5 Litir, marka la bar bar dhigo , tusaale ahaan Australia oo uu qofkii ka cabbo 12 Litir. Hadana Turkidu waa sabool. Dhakhliga qofkii soo gala waa $10,000, dalka Turkiga dadkiisu waxaa dakhli ahaan qofkiiba u soo gala lacag u dhexeysa $180 iyo $1,280 bishii – 56% waxaa soo gala $180 iyo 510$ bishii. Laakiin marka laga yimaado hoos u dhaca dalka, farxaddu waxa ay u muuqata ereyga Turkida. Cilmi baaris la sameeyey 2015, 56.6% wey faraxsanaayeen. 2016, kaddib kumanaan ku waxyeeloobay weerar argagixisnimo, lagu sigtay dagaal sokeeye, xukun deg deg ah, saboolnimo, tobanaan kun oo maxaabiis cusub ah, dilal, weerarro, kumaan dhismo waddoyinka shilalka ka dhaca ah, tiradaas farxadda waxa ay sare ugu kacday 61.3%. Turkidu waxa ay aaminsanyihiin in ay haystaan hoggaamiye ashqaraar ah kaas oo dalkooda markasta mid wanaagsan ka dhigay. Ha dhibin nabadoodda asal raaca ah.

The duel between Somaliland and Puntland seems to be far from ending, with each asserting their ownership of the disputed Sool in the latest altercation. Somaliland Information minister Abdurahman Abdullahi Guri-Barwaqo has reacted strongly to Puntland’s claim to the disputed region. Briefing the Press in Hargeisa, about 1,600km northwest of the Somali capital Mogadishu, Mr Guri-Barwaqo stated that Puntland’s claim was a breach of Somaliland’s sovereignty. The president of Puntland, Dr Abdiweli Mohamed Ali Gas, on Saturday stated that Sool was part of his territory. Somaliland, which unilaterally declared independence from the rest of Somalia in 1991, claims the former British Somaliland Protectorate, which joined with the former Italian Somalia to form the Republic of Somalia on July 1, 1960. Closely related President Gas, while addressing the semi-autonomous authority’s parliament in Garowe town, 1,000km northeast of Mogadishu, reiterated that Sool and Sanag were part and parcel of Puntland. He justified his statement insisting that the clans in the two regions were closely related to the others the in Puntland. “There is no such a thing as Somaliland borders. The inhabitants of Sool and Sanag regions belong to Puntland,” said President Gas. He said further that the British left the region a long time ago and their administrative units could not be allowed to divide the local clans. British colonialists The Somaliland President Muse Bihi Abdi, Dr Gas asserted, should wake up to the reality on the ground. “I want to tell Muse Bihi that his claims that Las Anod, Hudun and Taleh (in Sool and Sanag regions) were inherited from the British colonialists were wrong,” President Gas stated. “I tell him that Las Anod is not London, Hudun is not Birmingham and Taleh is not Cardiff.” However Mr Guri-Barwaqo retorted that in this age and time, people respected borders, not clan affiliations. Local inhabitants Somaliland in the northwest, declared independence from the rest of Somalia in 1991, but has since failed to win international recognition. Puntland was established as a semi-autonomous authority in 1998, but remains a member state of the Mogadishu-based federal government of Somalia. The two authorities bitterly dispute the ownership of Sool and Sanag in northern Somalia and their two armies have used all sorts of weapons since early May in repeated confrontations at Tukaraq District, about 1,100km northwest of Mogadishu. Hundreds of people are assumed to have died from both sides, while thousands of the local inhabitants have fled the area fearing for their lives. The East African

The country before this day had for about eighty years been fighting to gain control of her affairs from the colonial government.” President Bihi stated that Somaliland gained self determination before Djibouti and Somalia, and had internationally demarcated borders like many African countries at the time. “Somaliland was the first country from Somali speaking countries to gain independence. W e also have some regions of Somali speaking people in Ethiopia and Kenya however Somaliland gained independence ahead of Somalia and Ethiopia. This was before the AU 1964 declaration on African countries boundaries.” President Musa said. The president sent a peace message to Somalia he has these to say “To all those people who speak the Somali language I declare that Somaliland is a country at peace with herself and want peace with all her neighbors.

It is not ready to start another conflict to return backward to many years of poor economical development and ignorance.” By: Solnanews.com

Your Excellency, we feel your energy, positive spirit and we clearly hear your message, the message of peace and prosperity; and we also share your vision of creating union of horn of African countries. But, we are asking what kind of union? 1) Is it win-lose union (Master-slave union) where the strong dictates his terms on the one less strong; or 2) Is it win-win union (master-master union) where all the countries are equal and all have equal voice on the table. We are visioning the latter. You Excellency, Somalia were a failed state for more than twenty years. For the past eight years, the international community and African Union thankfully have put a huge effort in Somalia to help it stand on its feet. It came a long way yet it still needs help to survive. It just started to gather its pieces and started building its institutions. Your Excellency, there are two options before the neighbors with respect to Somalia: 1) Exploit the situation of Somalia and take over the country gradually against the will of its people. Or 2) Play the role of good neighbor – help them stand on their feet; help them hold general election that will produce a representative government. This will be the legitimate government that could enter into agreements on behalf of its people. We recommend that the neighbors chose the latter option. Why? You will win the hearts and minds of Somalis and get lasting friendship. Friend in need friend indeed. Your Excellency, Somalis had a rough history with Ethiopia, history of conflicts and wars for past five centuries, induced by the colonial powers to my limited knowledge. In Islamic history we read that the Christian king of Habasha (Abyssinia), Najashi was a just king and treated people with fairness. Prophet Muhammad PBUH sent some of his companions to king Najashi to take refuge in his kingdom from aggressions of Quraish of Makkah, in the beginning of the 7th century. Since then, the relation between the Christians and Muslims of Horn of Africa was a relation of peace and coexistence. Your Excellency, your Oromo community was disadvantaged, oppressed and sidelined in Ethiopia for so many decades if not centuries. I believe you understand to your core the effect of bad treatment, oppression and unjust. Your excellency, there is an opportunity of great magnitude before us, and under your leadership we could take the necessary steps to change the course of the history and create shared prosperity and success for the people of horn of Africa, and restore the peace and coexistence that it once enjoyed in the past; in an atmosphere of mutual respect and focusing on the common interest. We are hopeful you will rise to the occasion. Your excellency, in Somaliland we have made the decision to withdrew from the union with Somalia 27 years ago and restored Somaliland independence, after the central government – lead by the late dictator Siyad Bare – waged a war – employing scorched-earth-policy – against our people which resulted in the death of tens of thousands and displacement of hundreds of thousands of our people and destruction of all major cities. Thanks to Ethiopia it provided a refuge for our people, we will never forget that favor. Indeed Ethiopia was and still a good neighbor and a friend, we really appreciate. Your Excellency, Somaliland willingly went through process of building its country starting with reconciliation, building government institutions, and democratization using its limited resources. Somaliland came long way but a lot remains to be done. Your Excellency, it is ironic and unfortunate that Mr. Farmajo, president of Somalia – who is also a close cousin of the late dictator Siyad Bare- and whose government can barely stand on its feet without the support of international community and African union forces – with your country carrying most of the weight. Mr. Farmajo is instigating war against Somaliland. He is sending arms and personnel to Puntland, but in reality using it for waging war against Somaliland to annex part of Eastern region of Somaliland. Your Excellency, you cannot believe his justification (as highlighted by Puntland Administration). They are waging war because members of president Farmajo clan inhabit part of this region of Somaliland!!! Your Excellency, can you imagine what will happen to our Horn of Africa region if such thinking and logic is allowed? The entire horn will turn into chaos. You cannot grab land by clan affiliation. Somaliland border reference is the one that was set by the colonial powers, and I believe is the reference of all African countries. Your Excellency, it is our responsibility as the citizens of this region that we shall not allow such thinking and logic to prevail. Your Excellency, it is a public knowledge both in Somaliland and Somalia that Mr. Farmajo is using the resources that was given to Somalia by the international community to instigate internal conflict in Somaliland, Your Excellency, we believe this is a deviation that should be noted, addressed, investigated and corrected. Your Excellency, you have before you an opportunity to do the right thing and set the history our region to a different direction, a direction that will lead to regional harmony and prosperity. We support union that is based on mutual interest; mutual respect and sovereignty of member countries are not undermined. Who I’m I? My name is Ahmed Omar. I admire your thinking, energy, positive spirit and share your vision of creating union of horn of Africa. Thank you. Ahmed Omar, Jeddah – KSA: email – ahmed.omarsom@gmail.com

The government of Somaliland has refused to attend a conference by donors for Somaliland and Somalia in Brussels, Belgium. The donors meeting which is expected to start on 26-28 July 2018 is expected to contribute money to the Somalia development agenda which many countries are suspicious of because of the endemic corruption in Mogadishu. According to confidential information the Horn Newspaper intercepted confirmed that the Somaliland government received official invitation however it decided not attend because the meeting serb=ves the interest of the Somalia regime and Somaliland has nothing to gain. There is no official statement from the Somaliland government as to why it rescinded to attend the meeting. The government of the former president Silanyo once in 2014 refused to attend another meeting of its kind held in Denmark whereby Somalia was the focus of attention. In another instance in 2013 the same Silanyo administration did not take part in a conference held in Belgium. This is the third international conference the Somaliland government has shown a cold shoulder attitude and refused to embrace the agenda which is to support the corrupt Mogadishu regime. Even though the current government of president Musa Bihi has not spoken about this meeting the former president Silanyo cited the invitation of Mr.Hassan Sheikh Mohammud as the reason of his stay. However information reaching us confirms that Somaliland will not receive any special treatment and the development aid by donors will go through the Mogadishu regime. Horn
