Turkish MPs pass bill to send troops to support Libyan government

[towerheist]

There are Turkish troops in Somalia though. Turkeys largest overseas military base is in Xamar afterall. I dont think Erdogan will send his boys to the front lines to die for goat fckers.

He will do what he is doing in Somalia just on a larger scale. Open a military base train troops and arm them to teeth and send professional advisors. Unlike Somalia Libya can pay back(oil and gas) so the Turks will be more determined and generous there.

All good things must come to an end. Even kenya avoided the icj court case until the ICJ got fed up of their incompetence and declared a final date for them.

Libya has oil and cash, they will pay Turkey for help.

Why do you need more arms, in a country awash with guns mind boggling.

Alshabaab don’t hold any ground they are always on the move. Do you guys really believe you gonna get Apaches and chinooks. Where you gonna get the money to buy them and expertise to use . Too many guys play COD and think it is reall.

Weapons won’t do a thing or al shabaab would have been defeated by Ethiopia and amisom. It will end up in the hands of tribes and al shabaab. UAE Axis will awash the maamul beeleeds with weapons in response it would be a disaster.

All international players know this. The Americans and Ethiopians got burnt in Somalia no ones will make a move like that. Somalia will rise when the Somalis compromise with each other. Either stick together or agree to go seperate ways.

Libya's Prime minister requested military assistance from Turkey while Zoo.malians call upon the likes of Uganda, Burundi, and Kenya for help.

Warlord Haftar backed by the UAE, Egypt, France, and the US(Russia to an extent), is inching closer to seizing Tripoli. Turkey will deploy their navy and provide aerial support to prevent Haftar from capturing the seat of the government. You wouldn't know that there was an arms embargo in place for Libya due to Haftar's allies(primarily UAE & Egypt) repeatedly breaching it by equipping him with fighter jets, armoured vehicles, heavy weaponry, etc.

Erdogan's government recently signed a maritime agreement with Libya's "UN recognized government" to counter the Greece(Greek Cyprus), Israel, and Egypt axis in the region in what's shaping up to be a direct conflict between Turkey & Greece as a result of the energy geopolitics of the Eastern Mediterranean.

There is a lot to gain from having a friendly pro-Turkey government in place to secure the country's energy(gas pipelines and oil exploration) interests in the Eastern Medditerrian sea and EEZ which is why Erdogan is seeking to prop up Al-Saraaj's embattled government. The massive potential commercial opportunity that awaits Turkish firms in the eventual reconstruction of Libya is the icing on the cake.

When it comes to Somalia, there are too many hands in the pot(UAE, KSA, Qatar, Ethiopia, Kenya, US, UK, EU, Turkey, and AMISOM)

Not to mention the local elements playing a hand in destabilizing our country(political opportunists, corrupt ganacsato protecting their ill gotten gains, "minority" clans(tribe in the case of Madowweyne) joining AS in masse as a result of political/economical, and societal disenfranchisement, etc). Al Shabaab in some cases is a hired gun willing to do the bidding of any of these elements whether foreign or domestic within our society.

If anything, we need to chip away at removing these foreign influences bit by bit. Al Shabaab has grown into a racketeering conglomerate while operating under Villa Somalia as a shadow government in Muqdisho. There is no end in sight to their madness, therefore the most responsible thing for the government to do is open negotiations with them. At the moment, we don't have the military means nor earnest support from a willing partner to defeat them.

The resurrection of Somalia is too big of a task for any nation alone to fully commit to, which is why I don't think Turkey will ever send troops to our God forsaken country. The Turks are doing their part in pumping out hastily trained batches of "SNA" troops and equipping us with light weaponry, it is high time for Somalis to take responsibility for their own security.

AMISOM mandate ends this year, will be interesting if Turkey replaces them in Somalia

Do you seriously believe that Amisom won't be asked to manage security for the coming elections/delays in the next 2 years?

Turkish company also got contracted for the garacad port and a turkish owned 5 star hotel recently opened in Mogadishu. They seem to be making return on their 2011 pr campaign.

We are paying them cash to build Garacad. It isn't charity work like what they do in Xamar. A Chinese company was also considered but we decided that the Turkish company was the best.

All good things must come to an end. Even kenya avoided the icj court case until the ICJ got fed up of their incompetence and declared a final date for them.

Original date: 2019, Sept. 9-13
First delay: 2019, Nov. 4-8
Second delay: 2020, June 8-12
Third delay: ???

Kenya waiting for the Somali judge to finish his duty this year before the final hearing.

Our Turkish brothers have our full support. We know some pro UAE Somalis want to turn us against our brothers, they were the only ones who saved us from the famine in 2011

Farmajo is cooperating with Kenya to ensure that this case doesn't end up on a Majeerteen judge's desk.

Somalia really needs leaders who’s first priority is rebuilding and not lining their own pockets with stolen funds. What have we come to? When people are going back by the boatload to have dibs on money meant for the state the Libyans have some honor
