I don’t think even anyone would be against Ethiopia basing a contingency of marines at the recently completed Berbera Military Port and Airport and contributing to regional security, like other militaries have presence on Somali bases in Mogadishu, Kismayo, Baidoa. They But clearly Abiy’s intentions go beyond having access and utilising a second port (Berbera) next to Djibouti, and they go beyond just stationing marines at the existing military base and airport in Berbera. Abiy envisions an expanded empire that annexes coastal lands in to Ethiopia, which is a recipe for disaster and regional instability. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Illyria Posted January 19 5 hours ago, Arafaat said: Ethiopia makes it clear it wants an own commercial port, it would mean the end of Berbera Port and the expected economic benefits Somaliland was seeking. Their intent was clear from the get-go, and was for ownership. Implications: Not only Berbera, but Jibouti, Bosaso, Garacad, and Xamar too. A port by a hostile, functioning State would dwarf all other ports in the dysfunctional Somali peninsula. ----------- There is a consensus between the TPLF and the Oromo regime in Addis Ababa to cooperatively seek the annexation of the Afar part of Eritrea to Tigray , as well as liberate Tigray from Ethiopia after controlling the Asseb port, while concurrently, the Oromo pushes eastward with conflicts into Somaliland. Their aim is to secure the Zella port before declaring independence. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
