This deal should only be made if Ethiopia offers galbeed to Somalia, Djibouti and Somaliland in exchange

 

[Garsoore]

Djibouti gets a billion something annualy from finessing Ethiopia for using their ports. Won't they lose all that? What will the fat dictator gain?

 

[El Nino]

Insanity, this will just doom Jabuuti economically. Danyeers are leading that place, especially the fat cuck.

What's he gonna get in return? Ciise land in Itoobiya? Otherwise this just gonna really suck Djbouti dry.

This is good for Somalia diplomatically.

He didnt say ownership of the port, just 100% "management,” of the port. Why would they take that deal when a dumb and senile somali is offering 20km by 20km? They won't take it as they see their interest met with having a coastline connected directly to their border.

There's still the military aspect of it. Ethiopia wants to set up a navy, mere commercial port ain't going to cut it. It would jeopardize Djibouti's lucrative foreign base business. Giving a regional hegemon like Ethiopia a naval base would negatively impact the existing foreign bases in Djibouti. It also won't address the elephant in the room, Egypt's entry into the Somali arena.




Still, good move by Djibouti. They're doing everything in their power to disrupt Somaliland MoU with Ethiopia. This means they view us as a serious competition.

Harun just yaps like many Somali analysts. As the proverb goes why kill the snake when you get the gold for free.

Fatman is a a thorn to Djibouti’s development, but would rather he fight with us than give them what they want. Eritrea by themselves defeated these idiots, I’m sure Somalia and Djibouti could do the same if they tried. Especially Somalia, considering Djibouti’s military is ahead of theirs.
