Opposing the central gov is a tradition for Pland. And it has been since Farole days. The UAE merely used the preexisting fissures. As for Deni, he brought us HSM who was already known to dislike Pland. His opposition to HSM is personal. It has nothing to do with the interest of Pland. He also personalized his opposition to Farmajo. He made a point of wanting to oust Farmaajo and not coz it was good for the country. I share your sentiment about foreign involvement in our affairs. I do credit Deni for the fight against Deash.

They always used Puntland as a hedge and a tool against the central gov. Their investment in Puntland was minimal. Deni's authority has been diminishing thanks to his inability to comprise and antagonize everyone. PSF and clan militias from Garowe are openly defying him. Issimada are done with him.

They are already leaving Bosaso. Thier equipment and personal are being flown to Ethiopia or back to Abu Dubai. Their proxies are being choked logistically and rare aligning with Saudis, Turks, and Pakistan.

It seems Deni has lost the support of H@rti elders. And UAE continue to vacate Bosaso airport.

The UAE is in a MASSIVE trouble

Muse Biixi tried that and three years, you have a new federal state and with another one on the way in the Western front.

Ditto!

I believe he did, but the man is losing support very fast. His stubbornness doesn't help. It's worth noting Pland troops and elders are in Sool now. Many didn't appreciate his hostility towards Northeast state.

Deni is isolated. People are tired of him. The presence of UAE has only benefited him, his family and close associates.

Any war in Sool will be tribal in nature.. Neighboring clans should be aware.

According to some news outlets, Somalia nullified all agreements with UAE including the military pact.

Indeed! Heavy cargo planes are flying out Bosaso and Mogadishu.
