Eritrea, Somalia, Somaliland and the Horn of Africa From Eritrea and Ethiopia - From Conflict to Cooperation, Amare Tekle (ed.), pp.139-168 (Red Sea Press, 1994) Reprinted by permission Eritrea, Somalia, Somaliland and the Horn of Africa •"The traditional chiefs are ignored, sometimes even persecuted. The makers of the future nation's history trample unconcernedly over small local disputes, that is to say, the only existing national events, whereas they ought to make village history - the history of traditional conflicts between clans and tribes - a harmonious whole, at one with the decisive action to which they call on the people to contribute. The old men, surrounded by respect in all traditional societies and usually invested with unquestionable moral authority, are publicly held up to ridicule." (emphasis mine) . Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth.. I. Introduction The relationships of the peoples and countries of the Horn of Africa have always been complex, and more often than not, have been analyzed from the point of view of the Somali Ethiopian conflicts and Ethiopian-Eritrean conflicts. Our perspective focuses on actual and potential reconciliations and cooperation. This chapter outlines Eritrea-Somali relations historically before going on to analyze contemporary aspects and offers informed speculations about future possibilities. Eritreans and Somalis, should they wish to do so, can best strengthen their solidarity and cooperation within the context of a "Common Market" or/and a Commonwealth of Independent Horn of African States. II. Historical Links Eritrea is located along 1,000 kilometers on the west coast of the Red Sea on the Horn of Africa. The Italians adopted the name Eritrea from the Greek Eritrea, literally meaning "red." Positioned along this strategic body of water which has attracted invaders for centuries, Eritrea is bordered on the north and northwest by the Sudan, on the southeast by the Republic of Djibouti (formerly French Somaliland), and on the south by Ethiopia's Tigray Province. Eritrea's modest land surface offers a splendid and unique variety: highlands, deserts, the forests of Equatorial Africa and the severe volcanic ecology of South Arabia and the Djibouti zone. Historically, Eritrea has been invaded by races related to those found in all the parts of the Horn of Africa. Languages spoken in Eritrea are related to other languages spoken in the Horn. The highland Tigrinyans, for example, are culturally linked to the Ethiopian Tigrinyans and they both profess Coptic Christianity. The southern stretch of the Coastal Plain and the vast desert lying about it in Ethiopia and ex-French Somaliland are inhabited by the Afar (European books refer to them as Danakil), a Muslim people whose language is Cushitic in origin, and are culturally and linguistically related to the Eastern Cushites, the Oromo (so-called Galla) and Somalis. Afars live in Eritrea, Djibouti and Ethiopia. These are but a few examples of diversity in Eritrea. Around the sixteenth century, for example, "the Danakil (Afar) and other Hamitic (Cushitic) tribes were welded into a loose unity by the Afari or Sultans of Aussa, dependents of the Somali Kings of Adal. The shape of Eritrea's partition between Ethiopians, Turks, Fung, and the Sultans of Aussa, though fluid at first, congealed into a recognizable shape (1). There is a legend that states that the famous Ahmed Gurey, who led Somali and other Muslim forces from Adal to battle against Abyssinian kings, came from the Muslim Bejas of Eritrea. The Turks intervened and after acquiring Massawa, exercised some form of control over the northern coastal stretch including Somaliland. The history of foreign interventions is going to provide another link between the Eritrean, Somali, and other peoples of the Horn.

In Turkey, top military figures apparently resign en masse The departures appear to be in response to further attempts by Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan to boost civilian control of the military after the victory of his Islamic-rooted party. Gen. Isik Kosaner, right, in a 2008 photo. Kosaner, the Turkish army's chief of general staff, and the officers heading Turkey's ground forces, navy and air force have resigned, according to Turkish news reports. (Burhan Ozbilici / Associated Press / August 27, 2008) Syrian troops said to mass on border with Turkey Developments in North Africa and the Middle East Turkey breaks with Syria over crackdown Syrians vent rage in tent camps on border with Turkey More Syrian refugees pour into Turkey Turkey's Islamist-based AKP keeps majority in parliamentary election See more stories » XTurkey elections likely to reshape constitution By Borzou Daragahi, Los Angeles Times July 30, 2011 Reporting from Beirut— The rift between Turkey's once-dominant military old guard and its rising Islamist political elite took a dramatic turn when nearly all the country's military leadership apparently resigned, escalating a power struggle in a nation that plays an increasingly vital role in the Middle East. Turkish news reports said that the army chief of general staff, Gen. Isik Kosaner, and the officers heading the Turkish ground forces, navy and air force quit Friday. The departures appear to have come in response to further attempts by charismatic Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan to bolster civilian control over the military after the landslide election victory in June of his Islamic-rooted Justice and Development Party. Although details of what led to the resignations were initially unclear, the two sides have been locked in a standoff over the fate of dozens of military officers jailed and on trial for allegedly plotting to overthrow the government in 2003. The military contends that the incarcerations and charges are a politically motivated attempt to break the remaining power of the secular military establishment. More officers were indicted this week in connection with coup attempts. Analysts say the military elite has been under pressure to fire those officers who remain in jail on conspiracy charges, even though they have yet to be convicted. The extraordinary step of mass resignations at the military's highest echelons followed a meeting by Kosaner with Erdogan and President Abdullah Gul. Turkey's semiofficial Anatolia news agency quoted Kosaner as writing, "I resign my post as I deemed it necessary." It later rescinded the report and described the top general's departure as a "retirement." There was no confirmation of the resignations by the country's top leadership. Transportation Minister Binali Yildirim was quoted by the daily newspaper Today's Zaman as saying "the state would continue to function," and saying that he had been told the officers "have asked for their retirement." Some saw the generals' move as a sign that Erdogan has prevailed in a struggle that defined Turkish politics for a generation. "Symbolically, it's the end of the period of the military involvement in politics," said Asli Aydintasbas, a columnist for the daily newspaper Milliyet. "They've been politically paralyzed. This is the symbolic move in which the military is defeated entirely." Others warned that the loss of the top brass had pushed Turkey into uncharted territory that could cause damage to both Erdogan's political position as well as the country's reputation. "Four of the five top military brass resigning from their post to protest the political authority: In any country this could create a problem," said Mensur Akgun, head of the foreign policy program at the Turkish Economic and Social Studies Foundation, a think tank in Istanbul. "It can lead to a political crisis, depending on the actions of the opposition parties. They can capitalize on this issue and put pressure on the government." But the departures clearly mark a significant moment in the trajectory of Turkey, a North Atlantic Treaty Organization member and onetime steadfast Western ally that, under Erdogan's eight-year reign, has moved out from the shadow of nearly 80 years of domination by military figures, c*****ng a new, more independent foreign policy. The stability of Turkey is vital to American interests, because Washington looks to the nation as an ascendant Islamic power that could use its influence to dampen conflicts across the Middle East. The Obama administration has recently turned to Turkey to pressure the Syrian government to ease its bloody crackdown on demonstrators. U.S. officials have sought Turkish help to stabilize post-invasion Iraq, and have tried — with less success — to foster better Turkish relations with Israel to ease Israeli-Arab frictions. Greater strife between Turkey's military and the civilian leadership could complicate the administration's Middle East diplomacy. Though the Obama and George W. Bush administrations have emphasized ties to civilian rather than military leaders in Turkey, the military remains key on a number of vital issues, including the war in Afghanistan and plans for a NATO missile-defense system to shield Europe from a possible Iranian threat. "If there's a convulsion in Turkey between the military and the civilian leadership, you can be sure that will spill over and affect the U.S.-Turkish relationship overall," said Bulent Aliriza of the Washington-based Center for Strategic and International Studies. Some analysts said they doubted the clash would harm the country's international reputation or ability to play a leadership role in the Middle East at this turbulent time. "This is part of the normal democratization and normalization process of this country," said Cengiz Aktar, a newspaper columnist and professor of social science at Bahcesehir University in Istanbul. "The military should go back to its barracks once and for all and obey the elected government of the country." The resignations came three days before the annual Supreme Military Council meeting scheduled for Monday between top brass and the political leadership to decide on armed forces promotions to be announced later in August. There was much speculation that the direct cause of the resignations was the generals' unwillingness to deny promotions to colleagues in jail. According to Aktar, the military also opposed Erdogan's attempts to inject a large degree of civilian input in the upcoming round of debate over promotions. "They're resigning because resignation is the last resort," Aydintasbas said. "They don't want to go down as the generals who failed their comrades in arms. They're resigning because they don't have any more leverage." In addition to Kosaner, army commander Gen. Erdal Ceylanoglu, air force commander Gen. Hasan Aksay, and navy chief Adm. Esref Ugur Yigit also reportedly tendered their resignations, NTV television reported. Gendarmerie commander Gen. Necdet Ozel, the only commander who did not leave his post, met with Erdogan in Ankara, the capital, and was offered the position of land commander, according to the website of the Hurriyet newspaper. The sudden departure of so many top-ranking officers also comes as tensions flare between Turkey's armed forces and ethnic Kurdish rebels in the country's southeast. About 20 Turkish soldiers have been killed this month by fighters of the Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, which since 1984 has been waging an intermittent insurgency in pursuit of autonomy. According to Aktar, that upsurge in violence may have also contributed to the military-civilian clash. After a recent attack near the southeastern city of Diyarbakir that killed 13 Turkish soldiers, authorities launched a civilian unquiry alongside the military's investigation, angering senior officers

The refugees from somalia are welcome in somaliland the govt Will do everything to help these people jb what if we set up camps dhoqoshay and in durukhsi in the small villages in togdheer

However Hargaysa is not getting recognised. Which other countries are you fond of? I am not losing my mind at all in Somalia there is no government to deal with thats why EU ministers don't visit the TFG or Mogadisho they fund and than they give it a mandate and when the TFG clowns refuse to listen the EU cut all the Funds.But most of the times the Clowns listen to what Mahiga and Bahuku say thus they keep their Mandate and it circulates in that order the past two decades. Duke wake up Somalia is not a state its not a country any more it doesn't really have a government. Duke there was a time the Somali republic was a country and a state 3 decades ago i remember those days. But time has changed the former Somali republic as you once knew it was dissolved whats left from that former republic is the Somaliland republic a state that functions as a real state a genuine democracy and a country the EU ministers deal with,, and the other part (leftovers) turned out to be A UN project run by Yoweri Musevani and his Nilotic cousin Mahiga.

Mr. Johansen states that special recognition should also be given to the Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General, Ambassador Ahmedou Ould-Abdallah, for his relentless efforts to bring the Djibouti process forward. The Former president of Somalia received special recogntion from the Norwegian Government.

The Question is Somalia it has a government or a paper government but where is that government now the World Knows that in Hargeysa there is no TFG or the so called western backed government there thats how they call it these days. Duke why is the world undermining the authority of the so called TFG and why are they dealing with Somaliland and its government instead of with Sheikh dalxiis why are the Dutch funding another Parliament Building in Somaliland are they promoting that Somaliland should have its separate parliament. Why would the dutch foreign Minister visit Hargeysa the capital of Somaliland while he does not even visit or hold talks with the government of Somalia? Why is there no dutch Diplomats in Mogadisho.

In the world if there is a country that has a government that government meets with Foreign delegates from other governments. Why don't the EU ministers visit Mogadisho the seat of the Amisom forces?
