It is fascinating to observe how this situation is unfolding. However, I fail to see which laws she is alleged to have violated. The claim is that she has broken certain legal statutes, yet is she not permitted to inform refugees about immigration policies and laws, as well as educate them on their rights? What, then, is the precise argument being made against her? As for those Landers who are so fervently pursuing her, the majority are not even based in the United States and therefore lack a true understanding of the country’s political and legal landscape. Their grievance, in reality, stems from Ilhan’s remarks regarding Somaliland and Somalilanders. Her characterisation of Somalilanders as individuals who merely claim to be Somali, rather than truly being Somali, has provoked their anger . If anything, the solution is rather simple she needs to apoligse for those remarks she made in 2024, and the controversy would likely subside. And all will be forgiven . But they are not important what is is more important is the republicans and their arguments and elon musk accusation of her being a traitor. Thats what i am more interested in since he is now one of biggest trump supporter.

Five Puntland soldiers killed, 20 injured in roadside explosions in Bari region 127 SharesFacebookFacebook messengerTwitterWhatsAppLinkedInTelegramPhoneEmail Wednesday February 5, 2025 Garowe (HOL) – At least five Puntland regional state soldiers were killed, and nearly 20 others were injured on Tuesday when two armored vehicles they were traveling in hit roadside bombs in the Al-Miskaat mountains. The explosions occurred as Puntland forces conducted ongoing military operations in the mountainous region, where anti-ISIS campaigns have been underway since last month. Meanwhile, Puntland forces reported that they had fully regained control of Dharin, an area in Togjacel within the mountains that ISIS militants had held for several years. A brief statement from the military operation confirmed that some ISIS fighters were killed during the offensive, while others managed to escape. Puntland intensified its military campaign, supported by U.S. airstrikes, to dismantle ISIS’s command structure and eliminate key leaders in the region. On February 1, U.S. forces conducted airstrikes that killed several high-ranking ISIS commanders, further boosting the effectiveness of Puntland’s ground operations. The Al-Miskaat mountains remain a critical stronghold for ISIS militants, making the ongoing offensive a strategic priority for Puntland in its efforts to restore stability and security in the region.

A new dawn for Maakhir after SSC, Awdal emergence.

Ceerigaabo is not Laascaanood or Galkacyo. It is a proud and historically significant city, deeply rooted in the heritage of the Duriyad people. In particular, it belongs to one of the largest subclans of the Duriyad, and we shall defend it resolutely, for it holds sacred importance to us. Our revered forefather, Muuse Ismaaciil Carre, is laid to rest within the city itself, rendering it as hallowed to us as Jerusalem. It isnt a city east or west or sout or noth divided there is only one ceerigaabo with one mayor one police chief Everything east of Shidan belongs to the Maakhir people and is an integral part of Sanaag. That being said, the entirety of Sanaag is an inseparable part of Somaliland, and we recognise no distinction in this matter what so sever. The last time conflict was instigated in Ceerigaabo, the perpetrators faced the consequences their properties were seized, and they were expelled. Should they dare approach Ceerigaabo again, the outcome will be the same and they will be karbaashed as they were karbaashed before. Ceerigaabo stands alongside Burco, Hargeisa, oodweyne sheikh Gabiley, Berbera, and Caynabo—it has never been a subject of dispute. We defended it steadfastly in 1989, driving out the remnants of the ffqash regime, and we shall continue to safeguard its peace. Any attempt to disrupt its stability will be met with firm and decisive action indeed. -

Meta Plans $65 Billion Infrastructure Investment During ‘Defining Year’ for AI By PYMNTS | January 24, 2025 | Meta plans to invest $60 billion to $65 billion in capital expenditures and grow its artificial intelligence (AI) teams “significantly” this year, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a Friday (Jan. 24) post on Facebook. Saying this will be a “defining year” for AI, Zuckerberg said Meta is building a data center large enough to cover “a significant part of Manhattan,” will bring online 1 gigawatt of compute and will have more than 1.3 million GPUs by the end of 2025. Zuckerberg said this infrastructure will power the company’s AI efforts that include Meta AI, which he expects will serve more than 1 billion people this year; Llama 4, which he said will become “the leading state of the art model;” and a new AI engineer now being built that will contribute code to Meta’s R&D efforts. “This is a massive effort, and over the coming years it will drive our core products and business, unlock historic innovation, and extend American technology leadership,” Zuckerberg said in the post. This capital expenditure would be 50% higher than the estimated amount Meta invested in 2024 and more than double the amount it invested in 2023, Bloomberg reported Friday. Wall Street estimates had expected the company to allocate a smaller amount than that announced by Zuckerberg — $51.3 billion — to capital expenditures this year, according to the report. Zuckerberg’s announcement follows news of several other investments in AI infrastructure. President Donald Trump said Tuesday (Jan. 21) that an up-to-$500 billion project called Stargate will build AI-focused data centers in the U.S. Equity partners in Stargate are SoftBank, which will be responsible for funding the venture, OpenAI, Oracle and MGX, an AI-centered sovereign wealth fund in Dubai. On Jan. 7, Amazon Web Services (AWS) said it plans to invest at least $11 billion in Georgia to expand infrastructure to support cloud computing and AI technologies. The company said this move is part of its ongoing infrastructure investments across the country. Microsoft said Jan. 3 that it plans to invest $80 billion to build data centers in fiscal 2025 to power the development and use of AI. When making the announcement, Microsoft Vice Chair and President Brad Smith said the company is doing so amid a “golden opportunity for American AI.” -

UAE’s Strategic Pivot? Cirro’s Visit Signals New Regional Dynamic” In a carefully orchestrated diplomatic gesture that speaks volumes about shifting alliances in the Horn of Africa, the United Arab Emirates rolled out the red carpet for Somaliland’s President Abdirahman Cirro today, dispatching a private Royal Jet to ferry the newly elected leader to Abu Dhabi for his first overseas visit since taking office. Beyond boilerplate statements about mutual interests from the Presidential spokesman, however, the specific agenda for this high-profile visit remains notably opaque, despite President Cirro’s campaign promises of transparency in foreign dealings. As Somaliland’s largest direct foreign investor, the UAE’s commitment is most visibly demonstrated through Dubai-based DP World’s $442 million investment in Berbera Port, transforming it into an emerging regional trade hub. In his election campaign, Abdirahman Cirro was an outspoken critic of the DP World agreement, questioning its transparency and terms. His presence in Abu Dhabi now puts him in the delicate position of either maintaining that critical stance or potentially moderating his position to secure UAE support at a crucial moment in regional politics. The timing of President Abdirahman Cirro’s visit suggests a potential watershed moment in UAE’s Horn of Africa strategy. Following a deadly Al-Shabab attack in February 2024 that killed three Emirati troops and a Bahraini officer, the UAE has largely withdrawn from its engagement with Mogadishu. This tragic incident, coming after years of strained relations marked by Somalia’s 2018 seizure of Emirati funds and pro-Qatar stance, appears to have pushed Abu Dhabi toward a definitive choice. The question now looms: Is the UAE finally abandoning its dual-track approach to embrace Somaliland exclusively, seeing in Berbera’s stability an alternative to Mogadishu’s volatility? The timing of this diplomatic overture gains added significance amid the recent rapprochement between Somalia and Ethiopia. Somaliland’s diplomatic capital has been tested by Ethiopia’s pivot back toward Somalia, effectively shelving the port access memorandum of understanding and strengthening Somalia’s post-ATMIS security architecture. This shifting landscape might paradoxically strengthen Cirro’s negotiating position with the UAE, as Abu Dhabi’s strategic interests in Berbera intersect with rapidly evolving regional dynamics. Adding another layer of intrigue to the visit is the presence of Dr. Abdirahman Duale Beileh, Cirro’s newly appointed Economic Advisor. Beileh, Somalia’s former Finance Minister, received a presidential pardon from former President Muse Bihi before joining Cirro’s administration. Current government officials, speaking on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of internal arrangements, describe Beileh as operating as a de facto Finance Minister, though his formal appointment to the cabinet was likely avoided due to his recent Somalia government role and potential political sensitivities. The simultaneous presence of both the Finance Minister and Dr. Beileh in the delegation suggests substantive discussions about expanding UAE’s investment portfolio in Somaliland may be on the undisclosed agenda. Hanging over these discussions is the unresolved status of Berbera Airport. The UAE secured parliamentary approval in 2017 to establish a military base at the facility, but under former President Bihi’s administration, contradictory statements emerged about its intended use – initially announced as a UAE military base, then later described as converted to civilian use after a supposed lease cancellation. Despite significant upgrades, the facility remains largely inactive, its future uncertain. The airport’s strategic significance is underscored by multiple inspection visits from AFRICOM, suggesting broader international interest in its potential military applications. While the official agenda remains undisclosed, Cirro’s delegation composition hints at the visit’s scope and ambition. The presence of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister of Presidency, Minister of Finance and Economic Development, and notably, the Intelligence Chief suggests discussions will extend far beyond ceremonial pleasantries. The three-day visit also includes scheduled meetings with the substantial Somaliland diaspora community in the UAE, whose remittances form a crucial pillar of Somaliland’s economy. Last year alone, remittances to Somaliland from overseas exceeded $1.3 billion, with a significant portion originating from the Gulf states. The visit raises questions about the broader geopolitical competition in the Horn of Africa. With China maintaining a military base in neighboring Djibouti, and various Gulf states jockeying for influence across the region, Somaliland’s strategic location and deep-water port have turned it into an increasingly important piece on the regional chessboard. The potential shift in U.S. foreign policy under a returning Trump administration, particularly with a more pragmatic State Department leadership, could present Somaliland with additional strategic options for military cooperation beyond current arrangements. However, Somaliland’s leverage in these negotiations may depend on its ability to engage directly with potential partners, particularly the United States, rather than relying on intermediaries like the UAE. As regional dynamics shift and multiple powers express interest in Somaliland’s strategic assets, Hargeisa would be well-served to comprehensively evaluate its options before making binding commitments or overextending its strategic partnerships. As President Abdirahman Cirro settles into his meetings in Abu Dhabi, the key questions remain unanswered, masked by diplomatic protocol and official silence. Will this visit mark the beginning of a deeper strategic partnership? Is the UAE preparing to go all-in on Somaliland? The answers may well shape the future of not just Somaliland, but the entire region. -

Somaliland President Irro to Embark on First Foreign Visit to UAE by: Horn Observer Contributor | 26 January 2025 01:24 Somaliland President Abdirahman Abdillahi Irro is set to embark on his first trip outside Somaliland since his election victory in November last year. Hargeisa, Somaliland - Somaliland President Abdirahman Abdillahi Irro is set to embark on his first trip outside Somaliland since his election victory in November last year, Somalia's Kaabtv reported According to sources within the Somaliland presidency, President Irro will visit the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Sunday, following an official invitation from Dubai. Somaliland and the UAE share close ties, with Dubai-based DP World managing Somaliland’s Berbera Port, a key strategic hub in the region. Meanwhile, President Irro has postponed invitations from Ethiopia and Djibouti, prioritizing the UAE visit due to its strategic importance, according to presidential sources. Ethiopia signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Somaliland’s former leader, Muse Bihi Abdi, despite strong objections from Somalia’s federal government. Sources in Hargeisa indicate that the MoU remains in effect, and the new Somaliland administration is exploring ways to engage Ethiopia in discussions to further address the agreement. The MoU grants Ethiopia access to the Red Sea and a 20-kilometer naval base in exchange for Somaliland’s recognition. However, Somaliland’s new Foreign Minister, Abdirahman Dahir Adan, recently stated that the agreement is still under review. Djibouti, on the other hand, has expressed dissatisfaction with the Addis Ababa-Hargeisa MoU, as it poses potential risks to Djibouti’s port operations. Djibouti’s port is heavily relied upon by Ethiopia for imports and exports, and any alternative access through Berbera or other Red Sea routes could significantly impact Djibouti’s revenue from port taxes and fees.
