Sharif Hassan is someone that Sheikh Sharif leans on without him he feels inadequate, incomplete and lost for words. No wonder they call him Sharif Xariif and Sharif Sakiin.

 

As for the meeting our interest is the Galkayo Accord if that is respected, then everything will be fine, inshaallaah.

 

We never opposed the TFG as well. They simply felt that it was best for them to deny everything to Puntland, including scholarships to abroad and the Galkayo Accord that promised to make Puntland a base for the embattled half an square mile residing Transitional government in Mogadishu for its troops to be trained, a constitutional centre to be build and a base for Anti-Pirate operations as Puntland is a vast region, which has peace and a working government that could all host those initiatives but some said if our regions in the south are in a mess why should we award the North-Easterners of Puntland State and instead tried hell and heaven to divert those assignments to Djibouti instead out of a grudge and complex one could only speculate at.

 

But that was then and now is a new chapter. We have our interests to take care of so this is good and positive news for Faroole and Puntland State.

[General Duke]

It seems the Sharif camp and all the clanist advisors are realizing the truth. The state of Puntland is here to stay. The year and few months that Sharif has been claiming to be president, has not diminished the importance, power and rightful position of Puntland within Somalia, in fact this has been enhanced. The world has realized how important and central the state it to any future settlement of Somalia.

 

Thus Sharif, sign the agreement or not, the state will continue towards its peaceful rise.

[Fiqikhayre]

True brother after a year and a half it finally dawned on them and the IC knows as well the worth of Puntland State and its importance hence the meeting and agreement today.

 

But know as well the International Community is determined to realise a census between the TFG and Puntland State in order for them to work together and have a consensus and a working platform. Without Puntland the IC stands hapless as they don't have anything to work with.

 

The TFG doesn't control one single district and its credibility and that of the International Community lie with Puntland State which controls 1/3 of what constituted the former Somali Republic.

 

We are the legitimacy and holding force that is keeping the country together. Even now the TFG Police is being trained in Puntland State and some 800 Puntland trained TFG Police have been send to Mogadishu a couple of months ago.

[General Duke]

Puntland should get real consetions from the IC, and not just settle for simple promises and agreements. The old ***** Ibbi is on his way out and Sharif Hotels delusions about running the south are coming to an end.

 

Puntland needs to develop its infrustructure and not waste any more time on developing our hydrocarbon industries.

I WANT TFG TO MOVE TOO puntlanD, BUT its not easy

[Fiqikhayre]

The President is exactly there for those reasons mentioned GD. The invitation from the government of Ethiopia on behalf of the USA government and other Western powers is exactly on those lines.

 

They're working for a strategy for Somalia and bringing real change to its leadership. The IC wants real leadership for Somalia and thus is eyeing senior politicians to step up to the hapless TFG that is holed up in Villa Somalia.

 

Farole will come back to Garowe as quick as possible to again reshuffle his cabinet in order to enhance his governments ability in fulfilling the promises to its citizenry.

 

The US and its Western allies has promised in exchange that the State's natural resources such as the drilling of the oil will be exercised and given priority to be exploited as soon as possible and that a large port will be build in exchange for Puntland State's help in finding a real resolution and strategy for Somalia.

 

This is a solid promise and in exchange Puntland helps device a strategy for Somalia and to improve the leadership and scope within the TFG which is holed up in the half square mile of Villa Somalia.

[General Duke]

ANWAR, adeer I want the TFG to control the areas they claim, or for Sharif Hotelm to resign and we can build a new Somalia admin with teeth.

 

Puntland can not be the evil twin & the saviour at the same time.

 

Shihaabuddin : Thanks for the insight, I am interested in the Oil, the rest will follow when that comes out.

Somalia: TFG and Puntland presidents meet in Ethiopia.

 

31 Mar 31, 2010 - 10:50:32 AM

 

The President of Somalia's Puntland State government has held talks with the president of the T ransitional Federal Government (TFG) of Somalia in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa, Radio Garowe reports.

 

The talks were held on a hotel where both officials live in Addis Ababa and focused mainly on the recent disagreement between the TFG and Puntland leaders over a harmonised accord that would allow the two administrations to work together under a federal umbrella.

 

 

TFG President Sharif

and Puntland President Farole in Addis Ababa, March 31, 2010

According to a Puntland government official who requested not to be named, the meeting between Puntland President Abdirahman Mohammed Farole and Somali TFG President Sheikh Sharif Ahmed was not pre-planned one.

 

International players who are concerned about Somalia are said to be pushing talks between the two leaders in a bid to iron out the misunderstanding. Mr. Sharif and Mr. Farole met last November in Nairobi for their first-ever face to face discussions, but the talks ended in dispute

 

The Addis Ababa meetings come after representatives of both sides previously failed to agree on certain issues about the accord which its first phase was signed by TFG Prime Minister and Puntland President on August 23 last year in the Puntland city of of Galkayo.

 

Before landing in Ethiopian capital, Sharif’s delegation was in a tour to African countries, including Libya, Kenya and Djibouti where he was marshalling support for his fragile government’s plan to carry out offensives against the insurgents.

 

American officials quoted by Associated Press said Washington is mulling over possibilities of lending helping hands including the use of American drones to the TFG offensives.

 

Puntland, a collection of seven Somali regions that declared itself as an autonomous state in 1998, maintains to remain a part of federal Somalia.

Great news. It affirms what we were saying all along. Puntland has a solid representation in the TFG, it's part of it, and, on the big scheme of things, in agreement with it.

Internet portals will not drive the tone of Puntland's strategic relationship with Sharif.

[General Duke]

Pardon, I got the coughs all of a sudden..Sharif has been a "president" fopr over a year and has yet to visit Puntland.

 

Has reneged on the Galkacyu agreement.

 

His cabinet ministers have attacked Puntland as home of "Pirates" and even went as far as moving an important base to Djibouti instead of Puntland.

 

Meeting in Addis, & Nairobi affirms to all of us of the deep ties between Sharif & Puntland
