Somalia's government calls for UN action against Berbera port.

Speaking at the Security Council on Tuesday, Abukar Osman, Somalia's ambassador to the UN, said the agreement between Somaliland and the UAE to establish the base in the port city of Berbera is a "clear violation of international law".

Osman also called on the Security Council to "take the necessary steps" to "put an end to these actions".

"The Federal Government of Somalia strongly condemns these blatant violations, and reaffirms that it will take the necessary measures deriving from its primary responsibility to defend the inviolability of the sovereignty and the unity of Somalia," he added.

The UAE began construction of the base last year, under an agreement with officials in Somaliland, a northern region of Somalia that self-declared independence from the latter in 1991 following a civil war.

Earlier this month, the UAE said it would train Somaliland security forces, including the police and the military, as part of the deal.

The UAE is simultaneously investing in developing the port itself, which is strategically located close to Yemen, where UAE troops have been fighting as part of a Saudi-led military coalition against Houthi rebels since 2015.

DP World, the world's fourth-largest port operator based in Dubai, said in 2016 it would invest as much as $442m to develop the Berbera port. The deal also includes the government of Ethiopia, which took a 19 percent stake in the port.

Osman's statements come after Somalia's parliament voted to ban DP World from operating in the country and rejected the development venture.

Somaliland, however, said the vote would not affect the agreement.

DP World has been facing several problems in its contracts in the region. Last month, neighbouring Djibouti terminated its deal with the company to run a container terminal.

The government of Djibouti said that the contract to run the Doraleh Container Terminal (DCT) between the two parties was damaging the sovereignty of the country.

What will Zoomalia do to enforce it? Zoomalia cannot afford to antagonise Somaliland. Especially, when Kenya is taking their land and raping their women. Typical brain-dead Zoomalis, always obsessed with Somaliland even when their country is being colonized by Bantus and xabashis. :lol:

UAE is doomed in washington bro.

The pentagon and the CIA appreciate cooperation with their forces.
remember emirate money doesn't work in washington anymore, nobody wants to lobby anymore for the emirates due to trump investigation.

Bro Farmaajo is a CIA project himself, how did a man in buffullo sudley rise in somalia politics, and every door he wants to open its opened :shock: .

-UN should relocate from nairobi to mogadishu...Done!
-somalia air control should be moved from nairobi and should be run by somalis....done!
-Request kenya stop building border wall on the somalia border...Done!
-Stayed neutral in the gulf dispute, UAE and saudi arabia were angry, they and could not do anything, because uncle Sam in waging a war in somalia he does not want to anger the people of somalia.

one thing is for sure united state securities services dont want to anger somalis eespecially in ohio Columbus atlanta san degio and seatle :D

We have a good relationship with President [Mohamed Abdullahi] Farmajo and his administration, but as you know, he inherited a very difficult situation.
