It is through the Somali armed forces, but Turks are very involved as they decide who meets the required criteria. I don't know the officer corp, but the recruitment is nationwide, and their professional army (ones trained by Turks) is very diverse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maakhiri1 Posted July 5, 2021 Turkey is a very good country, with good intensions, if they select , right SOMALI army, who believe in SOMALINIMO, regardless where they hail from is fine. If SOMALIS ,don't sort out issues, very soon, and build army by merit, like US, Nato, gave up on Afghanistan, Turkey may leave us as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Turkey is banking on the possibility that Somalia has oil/natural gas along with other strategic minerals. Of course the useless Somali government will sell it all for peanuts.
