More facts: Russia/Somaliland military base deal

[BANTU]

This may actually be real

According to reports in the Moscow media this week, Russian diplomats began talking with the breakaway government at the end of last year about the possibility of establishing a base in Somaliland and are close to an agreement (newizv.ru/news/society/09-04-2018/rossiya-razmestit-voennuyu-bazu-v-nepriznannom-gosudarstve-na-territorii-somali and iarex.ru/news/57044.html).

The base would be home for two minesweepers, four frigates, and two submarines, a reflection of Russia’s inability to build larger ships. It would also have two long runways capable of handling up to six military transport jets and 15 fighters, the Russian media say. Moscow reportedly has offered 250 million US dollars in investment.

Somaliland in turn wants official Russian recognition and has not been shy about talking about that in the media. Whether the republic will get that remains to be seen, especially as one country – the UAE – already has a base there but has not officially recognized the breakaway republic.

The author is a BS artist.

Anti Russian war hawk that gets paid to shit out scenarios of Russia doing threatening things.

Just like how some neo-liberal pundits were saying that Dijbouti would be taken over by China after UAE got kicked out.

I’m not sure what’s wrong with some of you landers? Wishing rape on other Somalis, hoping families all die. Isaaq doesn’t even exist, you guys are a confederation as genetics has revealed. Your entire state is built on a myth. Garxajis are closer to Ciise than to HJ/HA.

What you're saying may be true, but your using false equivalencies to dismiss it.

First, the US did exert significant pressure on DJB so that the port would not be gifted to China. Proof:

Also, this update has Russian news sources reporting on the Russiam ambassador to Djibouti going to SL for talks.

It still may not be true, but we'll see.

That's irrelevant, Russia sees the whole world jockeying for military installations in the Horn and they want to be one of the big boys so they have to do as the big boys do

Ultimately, we will see.

@Cawo Cawlo I agree, but when Somalia is holding our country hostage, you gotta do what you gotta do

 

[sigmund]

Do you want Russia to occupy Somaliland?? kkkkk

 

[Boqor]

If Russia builds bases in Somaliland USA will bomb them. Look at Trumps twitter my love

Maybe soon Russia will cease to exist

Cons: Russian recognizes SL and SL secures long waited loan money

Pros: US Nukes that base and Hargeisa and Berbera will turn to another Heroshima & Negakasi.

Both options are infinitely better than uniting with Somalia.After USA nukes us the radioactive material will make our land a wasteland that non can occupy.

I'm a realist.There are 3 ways things can turn out for Somaliland.
1.Somaliland gets recognized
2.The current stalemate continues for another several decades.
3.Somalia somehow becomes stable and strong starting a war with Somaliland that leads to the North becoming the new South with terrorists and all.

Everything is already set in stone.The idea that Somaliland will ever become a part of Somalia is nothing more than a delusional dream.
