Dude's all talk so far. Doubt we'll see him tackle the Sland issue while still battling over power in Xamar and Al Shabaab.
I don't think he will act on it. He just used the occasion to get the message across. He has too much to deal with his plate before he can jumpstart the talks. He already has to deal with Saakin openly undermining our sovereignty, anarchists, and building up the army. This should be an issue for him in the 2nd term or whoever gets elected in 2020. Whoever handles the file needs to return to the negotiation table under better conditions.
The only x-factor will be UAE. I seriously doubt they will push for the SL recognition when they know they can control the whole country in 2020 with their bought stooges.
