These neighboring countries have a history of interfering in Somalia's affairs and promoting instability in the region. The ATMIS mission, which is meant to provide security and stability, may actually be a facade for further exploitation and manipulation of Somalia's resources. It is important for Somalia to closely monitor and address any potential ulterior motives behind the involvement of Ethiopia, Kenya, and Djibouti in Somalia.

At today’s UN Security Council meeting, Somalia firmly responded to Ethiopia’s attempt to impose itself on the new AU/UN support mission (AUSSOM). Somalia made it clear: “Thanks, no tanks. We have already secured the necessary 11,000 security personnel through bilateral agreements.” Ethiopia is finally out of Somalia. I am a proud Somali today.

Turkey has been trying to mediate in the ongoing dispute between Somalia and Ethiopia. The escalating tensions in the Horn of Africa stem from a maritime agreement that also impacts Egypt. So, why is Turkey expanding its influence in Somalia?

#UPDATE: #Algeria’s President Criticizes Israeli "Violation" of Somalia Sovereignty, Warns of Threat to Horn of Africa Stability Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune strongly condemned what he described as #Israel's violations against Somalia during a joint press conference held in #Ankara alongside Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. “We have expressed our indignation at the decision of the Israeli occupation to violate the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Federal Republic of Somalia, which constitutes a flagrant violation of the United Nations Charter and a threat to security and stability in the Horn of Africa region,” Tebboune said.

U.S. HAND IN CREATING AL-SHABAAB The US loves to cite the threat posed by Al-Shabaab when trying to justify American boots on the ground in the Horn of Africa. What they’d rather you and I forget, though, is that it was Washington’s meddling in Somalia that led to the terror group’s creation in the first place! As Somalia marks its 63rd anniversary of freedom from colonial rule today, here’s a reminder. #IndependenceDay #Somalia

Ethiopia: The Greatest Opportunist in Africa and the World!! Ethiopia is considered the greatest opportunist in Africa and the world, having exploited the collapse of the Siad Barre regime and the state in Somalia following the civil war in the early 1990s. Similarly, it took advantage of the departure of the late President Hosni Mubarak’s regime in 2011 to build the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), assuming that the Egyptian state had collapsed. The difference now is that Somalia is recovering, building its army, and fighting to liberate its lands and eradicate terrorism, while Egypt is reaffirming its strategic position in the Horn of Africa. History is repeating itself, and Ethiopia will escape this time. It will soon find itself needing to pay the price. #Ethiopia #GERD #Somalia #Egypt #HornOfAfrica

We have been warning against today for a long time. The targeting of Somalis in the US was not a fluke. It was deliberate and a preamble to divide and conquer Somalia by the Zionist regime. Somali military bases and natural resources are now up for grabs. #Somalia

Miller: Who lives in your country determines what your country is. Haiti doesn't work as a country. If you move it to America, it's not going to work here. Somalia doesn't work as a country. You take Somalia out of Somalia and put it here and it's not gonna work any better. If you move the third world to the first world, eventually we become the third world and that's not good for us and it's not good for anybody who wants to live here in the future.

We Are Coming, Ethiopian, Don't Sleep! Egypt and Somalia to Conduct Military Exercises Soon It seems that Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi has decided to make Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed experience what he had previously warned him about: "Do not test Egypt." Very soon, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed will wake up to one of his worst nightmares—specifically, the sound of joint military exercises between Egypt and Somalia in the Horn of Africa, for the first time ever. This exercise appears to be a show of force. Confirming that Egypt has decided to bring the conflict closer to Ethiopia, which may find itself facing a new and uncomfortable reality, a report from security officials indicated that these drills, scheduled for this month, will involve ground, air, and naval forces. One official stated, "These exercises will send a clear and strong message about our unwavering commitment to cooperation and protecting Somalia." He added, "This will mean much more than just military exercises." Egypt, which has already sent weapons and military equipment to Somalia under a military cooperation agreement signed last month, also plans to join the new African Union peacekeeping force in Somalia. Now, Abiy Ahmed must prepare for what's coming, as this step simply means that he will be facing a historic display of Egyptian and Somali military power right in his own backyard. #Egypt #Somalia #Ethiopia #MilitaryDrills #HornOfAfrica #MilitaryCooperation #Peacekeeping #RegionalTensions

Our Regional Security Analyst, Samira Gaid, joined The Horn, a podcast series by the Crisis Group, to discuss Somalia’s evolving security landscape, the possible end of UNSOS, and the growing shift toward bilateral security partnerships. In our recent policy brief, No Time to Drift, Balqiis Insights argued that a negotiated transition compact was the most feasible path for managing Somalia’s security transition. That option may now be narrowing.

You won't believe it, but Kate Foster was appointed as the UK's Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations in New York on July 1. For those who don't know her, while serving as the UK's Ambassador to Somalia, she played a key role in opposing the Blue Revolution in northeastern Somalia, a movement that ultimately drove the separatist forces out of northeastern Somalia and confined them to northwestern Somalia, leading to the establishment of what is now the Northeastern Federal State of Somalia, which covers around 45% of the territory claimed by Somaliland. And, by coincidence, the British Ambassador to Somalia visited Somaliland today! The United Kingdom remains the biggest foreign obstacle to Somalia's unity❗️
