FGS cabinet signs off on Turkish Naval agreement, which is to be implemented within 24 hours!

[Zak12]

I always be biased towards Turkey because they literally reached out to Somalia when it was in its darkest chapter 7 era, with the first non-African head of state to visit the capital, Turkish Airlines connecting the country to the rest of the world, the upgrading of the Somali military through NATO- tier training, multiple new hospitals,and various private sector investments by Turkish entrepreneurs at the airports and seaports that has benefited the average person significantly.

I have yet to see any evidence of their interests working against ours. They also never meddle in the internal affairs of Somali politics, never play sides against one another like certain countries and have always maintained a neutral stance towards regional administrations, while obviously supporting the government of Somalia transparently based on its own principles. If the annual maritime resources yield is a high estimate of one billion dollars, and if over the span of 10 years this figure accumulates to between $10 to $15 billion. That is still a major net gain for Somalia as 70% of something ($7 billion to $10.5 billion) is better than 100% of nothing, which has been the case for the last 30 years.

Meanwhile Turkey can fully fund its own operations to safeguard Somalia’s waters and reconstruct the Somali Navy with the most modern frigates, destroyers, and train a large naval force. Remember that Turkey’s interest has always been to build a strong Somali Armed Forces without any limitations. In the Farmaajo era they supplied 60 thousand uniforms, including those for a navy and coast guard that would be almost 4000 strong in manpower, which would make it one of the largest navies on the continent;




This Defense pact would also prevent Bayraktar and other Turkish private companies from supplying countries like Ethiopia, if the latter were to become militarily antagonistic to Somalia’s maritime zones, because by default this would also go against the interest of Turkey. Prior to this agreement, Turkish companies did not have such obligations.

Turkish Defense industry is now capable of building its own frigates and carriers;

People are too emotional nowadays to analyze situations like you do. In Somalia's current state, they literally don't have the capability to built up or invest in anything. Its sad to say but that is the reality of it. FGS has to rely on partners to get anything major done and so far it has yielded good results. I believe Somalia would be wholly different without Turkey's support.

 

[Kool-Aid]

The president of #Somalia @HassanSMohamud says maritime defence deal with Turkey not meant to counter Ethiopia or attack another country but intended for Navy's development, training, and equipping for the protection of the country's waters marred by piracy and illegal fishing.

 

[Three Moons]

Puntland are not part of it.

Brother, the entire maritime side of the Somali peninsula or Somalia falls under the Somali Shipping Code, which was ratified in March 2020. The world is governed by laws, which can’t be revoked by local entities without international acknowledgment and approval by the country’s sole sovereign representative, which is the FGS.

 

[Dalac Bilaash]

So if Oil and GAS and any expensive resources found by us Tukey will take 30%!!.

Thanks Allah Puntland cut ties with this most corrupted goverment in history of Somalia.

Those Turkey navy will not come to our waters. We can defend our land and we keep our resources to our people.

Bruh do you think turkey cares about your dusty tuulo lmao

We have our coast guard. No ship will enter puntland without our approval.

Qoslaya not represent Puntland. We cut ties since year now.

What he doing will not reflect us, Xarmajo tried and lost to us.

Puntland is literally the pirate capital. The Turks should build a base there to secure the area.

 

[Dalac Bilaash]

I heard they're going to supply Two frigates to Somali Navy that is good start lol imagine Threatening Frigate with Dinghy boats you will get blown in seconds no one stands a chance

 

[FBIsomalia]

Bruh do you think turkey cares about your dusty tuulo lmao

Who said we care, Puntland will bring down anyone try to come our waters. when we have great ally UAE.

But we laugh on your slave habit to sell your air,land and waters to ajanbi. Its not something new to your people asking others to secure you like Amisom doing .

 

[Sup]

This is actually a good deal if you think about it. For the next 10 years not only will turkey protect our sea but they’ll also supply, train and arm Somalia navy. All for 30% of off shore revenue, to be clear this 30% will not be coming out of the national budget (FMS shares) but that of the Federal government. Deals to good to be true, what other concessions have been given to warrant this support ?

 

[IKHALIIL]

Again, reality says Turkay has tie with them, will Turkey stand with us or with them?.

You do realise that turkey has deeper ties with somalia than they do with ethiopia. Turkey has their largest embassy and foreign military base in somalia and they are here for the long run. They even want to build a spaceport somewhere in the south. https://www.dailysabah.com/business...ceport-in-somalia-as-part-of-1b-space-program

Russia had same thing. But when war 1977 started, where are they?

Dont ever trust ajnabi for your life, beside your kin!!.

Qoslaya family will not represent Somalia. Its not their crub to decide what they want to do with it!!.

Not it happens in air.

 

[Bazed]

Until popular representation is implemented on both a state and national level the voice of people won't be heard. If the political class was put in line by people we'd have more measured and professional officials. But we still run on sudo-fedual system.

 

[Shangani]

When you think of it also 30% going to turkey is paying for a somali navy imagine how much we would have to pay to build our own navy from scratch when we dont even have money.

The neoottomans won't stab our backs like those koofiyar influenced soviets did. We have history!

What do these maamul goboleeds have when it comes to the sea you don't have war ships frigates submarines you can't do nothing about it besides calaacaling
