Ethiopia defies Arab League over Somaliland maritime agreement

[Deeq A.]

Mogadishu (HOL) - Ethiopia's Foreign Affairs Minister, Misganu Arga, has vehemently opposed the Arab League's recent demand for Ethiopia to annul its agreement with Somaliland. This pact, signed in Addis Ababa, grants Ethiopia a 50-year lease on a 20-kilometre stretch of Somaliland's coastline and aims to establish an Ethiopian naval base and commercial port in the Gulf of Aden.
