Djibouti!! Somaliland Makes Djibouti insignificant! Somaliland has a higher population, longer coastline, bigger cities, more ports, and is much more relevent to Somalis and Somaliweyn political while Djibouti is a french colony and a military base in debated to china with a dictatorship that starves the whole nation. Somaliland needs to work more with D.D.S, and the Ethiopian government for trade towards Berbera!

why? Because the dictator in Djibouti starving his people doesn't want his people to rebel when they see the regional states prosper be it in The Eritreans or Somalis
The same goes for Eritrea and Tigray considering Eritrea wants Tigray to be cut off and forever gaajo so that the Eritreans don't see what their missing out with their dictator holding them back. This is the perfect example because Tigray and Eritrea are for the most part the same people. Which could be said for Somalis and Djiboutians.
Djibouti isn't a enemy of SL.
The Aptidon/Guelleh governments definitely are.

@Fowzi Kaahin, this is the article that lists how many times IOM and the cursed Somali neighbor of ours Djbouti has undermined Somalia and all the grievance Somalis have for Djbouti lol
Yeah I agree Djiboutians aren't what I mean by Djibouti but the government similarly to any other nation such Saudi being a exporter of Salafism and Salafi insurgent groups but not the average people who are decent human beings and our brothers.
Thanks I will look into it.
Disclaimer: Djiboutians are our brothers but f*ck their Dictator.

Djibouti seeks binding agreement with Ethiopia to connect railway with port

Ethiopia’s attempts to use the Ethio-Djibouti railway for fuel transport faces setbacks
Authorities in Djibouti want Ethiopia to sign a binding agreement to use their port to import fuel, should they construct a loading facility on Ethio-Djibouti railway. It is a proposal made as Ethiopia begins to build a rail line connecting the Ethio-Djibouti railway with Awash Depot.
Djibouti was expected to begin the construction but failed to do so, as negotiations with Ethiopian officials took longer than anticipated, and the duo are yet to reach an agreement over the future use of the railway line.
“Djiboutian government wants us to sign a binding agreement to only use their port for the next 15 years, if they construct the line and other facilities,” said an official who is part of the negotiation team.
A year ago, a cornerstone was laid for the construction of a line connecting the Awash Depot with the main railway line, unloading facility, and Awash-2 railway station. It is a part of the railway project that connects the Awash-Wolidia-Kombolcha-Haragebya railway with the Addis Ababa-Djibouti line.
China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC), one of the contractors that participated in the construction of the main railway line, is hired as the main contractor of the project a year ago.
The contractor is also building a fuel unloading facility at the depot, while a construction of the loading facility was expected to start by now.
Ahmed Tusa, director general of the Petroleum and Energy Authority, said Ethiopia has completed 30 percent of the project and is expected to be completed next year.
“However, the necessary work on the Djiboutian side has not begun yet. Our progress does not make a difference unless the Djiboutian government does the same at their end,” said Ahmed, admitting the prolonged duration of the negotiation is becoming a roadblock to turn this into a reality.
An attempt by the Ethiopian government through its Ambassador, Berhanu Tsegaye, to settle the difference with Djibouti over the matter also bore no fruit.
“With the current progress, we will be challenged to meet our target to fully substitute fuel trucks with our fuel wagons,” said Ahmed.
Ethiopia has a total of 1,500 wagons, of which 110 of them are dedicated to transport fuel. However, they have not been in use since the railway line was launched.
Last week, Ethiopia and Djibouti struck a deal to explore joint opportunities for the development of an oil storage facility in Djibouti. The Ethiopian Investment Holdings (EIH) and Great Horn Investment Holding (GHIH) signed a Memorandum of Understanding to co-invest in a petroleum storage facility in Djibouti.
