People are already claiming the oil!

[zyncarti]

so you want them to stay but do nothing for the people typical animal mindset

I actually don’t care what they do tbh.

Even if the oil is real. Somaliland will 100% either demand the rights to some shares or just won’t care at all. And who’s to say if we did ur suggestion that they wouldn’t just leave and secede from the country like they’ve always did.

If oil and/or gas was real and in significant quantities their elites would stop pushing for secession and moreso for confederation (I.e., something halfway between FMS/FGS) and they’d probably get it.

When MSB indiscriminately bombed SL, poisoned wells, and killed innocent civilians, do you expect these same people to rejoin without any acknowledgment, apology, or reparations? If the FGS wants SL to rejoin they need to compromise and I don’t see that as begging.

Now you're repeating seccesionists lies. Somalia went through 30 plus years of war, I don't think the seccesionists have suffered more than the rest of Somalia.

this is only 4 oil blocks tho, so 30 billion barrels in only those 4 is crazy

No oil was found in the 3 blocks. Turkey have already denied this story

We also got mining deals coming with Turkey. This oil deal should be negotiated. Which it probably will get by next administration. They need to give multiple oil blocks to China aswell. Since last time they offered 50/50 even on recovery costs if i remember correctly

I may be remembering wrong but didn't China ruin some other east african country due to an oil spill?

Edit: I googled. It was Zambia. But, the recovery deal would be much better if it is true.

I'm fairly certain that isn't real because it sounds weird. The words are believable but the audio sounds wrong.

For me, it will only be confirmed when actual drilling begins. We've been hearing for over 20 years now that Somalia is about to discover oil, people online even claim we have 110 billion barrels. Yet, two decades later, there's still no drilling. The same cycle keeps repeating. In another five years, you’ll likely see things from my perspective when no drilling has happened. This whole oil exploration story is just a way for the Somali political elite to give false hope to the people, promising that wealth is just around the corner, while the country makes no real progress in anything else.

Turkey is actually investing into this. They’re not there to waste their money and time. It’s not false hope when Somalia is confirmed to have 20 billion barrels of oil and Turkey is going to begin drilling soon. Let’s think positively

@Sigmundd Hopefully landers won’t be entitled to any oil

I think you will find us force our way through to gain some of the oil.

We never said we're rich or strong. Don't let few delusional landers make you think that's hownwe all think. We still need many help and that means having some share of the oil.

I wonder if shbabki gonna try shenanigans like stealing some oil. You have to think of the most extreme and stupid scenarios to get closer to the upcoming reality of this country
