Ethiopia Backs Somaliland President Dahir Riyale Kahin

(Somalilandpress)-The recent visit of the Ethiopian delegation to Hargeisa, Somaliland capital, may be disguised as a routine diplomatic tour to strengthen the relationship between Somaliland and Ethiopia, but the rosy pictures painted by Hargeisa could be misleading. In fact the visit could be the prelude for a devastating political storm gathering momentum in Somaliland.

We are now learning that the Ethiopian delegation led by the Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs Dr. Tekeda Alemu arrived Hargeisa to mediate the Somaliland government and the opposition parties’ political gridlock created by the upcoming presidential election’s possible fiascos. But the truth is: many Somalilanders are sceptical about Ethiopia’s involvement in their internal affairs. But never before have foreigners attempted to mediate Somaliland’s quarrelling groups.


After Ethiopia pulverized Somalia to dust in 2006-2008 and launched a brutal campaign of terror against the Somalis in the Ogaden region of eastern Ethiopia, hardly anyone in Somaliland or Somalia receives Ethiopia’s crocodile tears for Somalia or “good-will” towards Somaliland as an honest gesture. Both Somaliland opposition party leaders bitterly protested against Ethiopia’s atrocities in Somalia. Ever since then, Ethiopia viewed Somaliland opposition parties as hostile.

In reality, Somalilanders are as much a hostage to Ethiopia as the rest of Somalia. It is beneficial to Ethiopia to have surrogates rule Somaliland, Nolanders and Puntland. The country is under a defacto Ethiopian leadership. The existence of Somaliland and Punland hampers Somali Unity and prevented quick recovery of Somalia as a united Country. Ethiopian leadership had skillfully devided the country using Somali clan loyalty. It is the case of the more advanced, the more intellectual and entrepreneural people of East Africa being ruled by their Less bright neighbours. Can anything be sadder than this fact?

To the poster: your like a pot calling a kettle black.
In my opinion I have come to the conclusion that no one in somalia goes against ethiopia - maybe besides alshabab but they also have a hidden agenda, anyway al least for this month leave qabiil and siyaasad alone, it won't benefite you in anyway.

This is the reality in the Muslim world as a whole, we've been divided up and separated to hate each other. While our enemies unite to kill us and mascara our children

Clever Idoor.

This is what Puntland should be doing. We have more allegiance to Woyane than Southerners or Ogaden.
