It would be a worthwhile trade if Awdal wasnt in a seperatist state. Abiy said hes willing to open up Ethios telecoms in exchange for a port iirc
Koonfur has no security to offer a port if this was feasible Somali telecom companies would be able to gain access to 100 million customers. We would also have soft power over Ethiopias communications and trade. If HSM and PL were on good terms or if Deni won the presidency garacad could have been an option.
The problem is the FGS has zero say already so signing off rights will only complicate things later. These type of things is where a federal government is useful.
