They probably would’ve. Instead Ethiopian government decided to deal with Bihi himself. Which undermines our government.

Lolol no. Never mind the fact that Abiy would never allow even an inch of Ethiopia to be seceded, the Hawiye would probably hate the idea of having more Darods in the country.

Hell, would the Ogadenis even want to join Somalia? Yeah they hate Ethiopia but they probably hate Hawiye just as much lol
 
Thats not something the people of somaliland want.
They want independence which they have made progress on, 50 years of leasing a portion of their coast doesnt undermine that quest.

We've all seen how Russia kept Crimea with its black Sea naval base and triggered a whole war.. Good luck with the bad deal.

MOGADISHU, Jan 2 (Reuters) - Somalia said on Tuesday a pact its breakaway region of Somaliland has signed with Ethiopia allowing it to use the Red Sea port of Berbera had no legal force and threatened regional stability.

Somalia also summoned its ambassador to Ethiopia for deliberations over the port agreement signed by Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and Somaliland President Muse Bihi Abdi on Monday.

The agreement would allow landlocked Ethiopia, which relies on neighbouring Djibouti for most of its maritime trade, to set up commercial operations at a leased military base in Berbera.


It also included recognising Somaliland as an independent nation in due course.

Abiy's stated ambition to secure access to the Red Sea is a source of tension between Ethiopia and its neighbours and has raised concerns of a fresh conflict in the Horn of Africa.

In October, Abiy said Ethiopia's existence was "tied to the Red Sea," adding that "if we (countries in the Horn of Africa) plan to live together in peace, we have to find a way to mutually share with each other in a balanced manner".


Somalia's cabinet said in a statement after an emergency meeting on Tuesday that the deal between Ethiopia and Somaliland "endangered stability and peace in the region".

"It is a violation and an open interference with Somalia's sovereignty, freedom and unity. ... The so-called a memorandum of understanding and agreement of cooperation is null and void," the statement said.

Ethiopia would offer Somaliland a stake in state-owned Ethiopian Airlines in return for giving it access to the Red Sea, Abiy's national security adviser said on Monday, without giving more details.


Billene Seyoum, spokesperson at Abiy's office, Meles Alem, spokesperson at Ethiopia's foreign affairs ministry, and Legesse Tulu, the Ethiopian government spokesperson, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Somaliland has not gained widespread international recognition, despite declaring autonomy from Somalia in 1991. Somalia says Somaliland is part of its territory.

Last week the Somali National News Agency said Somalia and Somaliland had agreed to restart talks to resolve their disputes, following mediation efforts led by Djibouti.

That's the worst deal ever. What's the logic behind that?

Our stance as Somalis is that we are against Ethiopia occupying any Somali land, whether that's Somaliland or Ogadenia. Why would we give any more land to them.

Instead we should maintain the land we have from raskambooni to raas caseyr, and think about how we can return Ogadenia into our hands.
