The last suugo bender
Russia already dumped us after realizing we're not loyal ourselves. Also it knows not to interfere in Somalia as the Gulf considers the Horn it's backyard and Russia can't afford another enemy.
China only cares about it's own long term goals and won't aid us in any way as they are known not to do so in global conflicts. Their economic relationship with Ethiopia and the future East Africa Community will be another reason not to enter the dirty waters called the Horn.
The West is the best option for a strong alley but people here don't realize that this faction isn't just made out of sovereign nations. It's a cornucopia of political interests, corporations and elite families. We only have to appease a dozen multinationals and powerful families and the West will allow us to rebuild without too much external interference.
I disagree Russia will do anything to piss off America and show them that they too are just as powerful , It won't take long to get Russia on our side to be honest i mean the russians are known to be discreet (they maintained secret meetings with Trump on American soil LOL!) it can take awhile to regain their trust but imo its well worth it , they are reliable unlike the west. China is expanding into Africa and its not being a secretive about it either, form building railways to mining ... (We had chinese neighbours in hargeisa!) ,
To conclude if the west was as mighty as they seem why didn't they stop china from its lucrative expansion in Africa and Russia's annexing of Crimea these nations along with Iran stand strong against the west without changing their political views , as soon as we rely heavily on the west they willl expect us to change our views to be more liberal and accepting of all their moral encompasses which will prove to be difficult as a Muslim nation there will be certain disagreements. Russia and China remain largely conservative and so are we, we share a similarity in that sense and honestly it makes senses i don't want us to be puppets and to appease to a 'dozen multinationals' i want us to have an alliance with a reliable, strong , loyal nations like the 3 i mentioned the west will ditch us when they see fit , (look to Libya and Iraq) as soon you refuse them something they will shit on you and still make you look like the bad guy, i mean must i go on.
