ICJ suggests new maritime boundary between Kenya and Somalia and rejects Somalia’s request for reparations.

We didn't get 100% but most of it.

Did I just hear the court say Somalia was subject to compensation from Kenya but Somalia in their oral arguments said they don’t have too?

Somalia sought compensation but court dismisses Somalia's request for reparations.
 
We want 100% percent what is this bullshit. We are losing territory even in 2021!
No way are they making another country landlocked. At least they gave them the bare minimum to not be landlocked. Its a win, just not a perfect victory.

When you come into this with the arguements that they never agreed anything, and the court should mark the border, and they give 90% to you, its a Win.

This is great news. This officially means that Somalia can sell potential oil and gas in the area. Not all of it, but majority.

the 10% they gave Kenya belongs to Somalia. Tanzania screwed Kenya over, not Somalia. They have to renegotiate with Tanzania

Doesn't matter. You are right but emotions don't change anything. Somalia came and said there is no border, you make a border. Therefore giving a vast majority of the disputed waters to Somalia is a win - win. Kenya tried grabing a large cake and got a small slice. They also win by not being landlocked before 200nm. But since both claim the whole shelf, once it gets to 330nm kenya is locked.

Somalia is taking L's be being ran by Darood and hawiye clowns. Fighting for a chair and doing nothing for the people or land or water.
 
They will be locked from high seas.
why does the high seas matter, from what I’m researching no one has ownership over the high seas, it’s open to any country for fishing and mineral mining purposes and some international court oversees everything that goes on in it

even in the 200 mile economic zone we have full rights to fish and minerals but kenya can still send trading ships and navy through it

Kenya finessed us on some 48 laws of power shit. Ask for something ridiculous so you can get something favorable
you would not realize how annoying it is for random cadaans and ajnabis to be saying “just split it down the half and end the case already!”

That is so fricking retarded. Why doesn’t Somalia go and claim all of Djibouti’s waters so they can split it in half and give us some lmao.

The court not giving us 100% shows how stupid it is. Claim the mountains and they’ll give you the hills.

the problem is Kenya wouldn’t be able to access the high seas without crossing foreign waters so they’re ‘landlocked’ if those foreign nations refuse to let them cross for whatever reason.

Somalia can’t do that right now but it could be a problem in the future.

I don't know why they rejected the reparation claim since Kenya violated Somalia's sovereignty by allegedly drilling oil in Somali territory.
