Turkey Considering Supplying Sea Vessels To Somalia

Post by galia »

Turkey is considering supplying sea vessels to Somalia to help Horn of Africa nation build up a Navy.
A visiting Somali delegation tabled a request for two search-and-rescue ships and six coast guard boats, worth some 250 million euros, during talks at the Undersecretariat for Defense Industries, or SSM, in Ankara last Friday, a senior SSM official told the Hürriyet Daily News
The delegation, which also visited shipyards in Istanbul and Antalya, was led by Abdiwali Ali Egal, vice-chairman of a fledgling Anti-Piracy Task Force attached to the Transitional Federal Government, Somalia’s rickety internationally recognized administration which is battling also Islamist insurgents. The Somalis requested that Turkey provide the vessels either as a donation or as part of a barter deal with an offer for future opportunities in Somalia’s fishing sector, the SSM official said.
The Somalis, he said, are likely to raise the issue with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan when he visits Somalia on Thursday and Friday

That would be nice of the PM, I think we badly need them to get rid of these illegal Ships passing through our waters without our permission. I know the pirates are already in the business but we should start charging people who choose to use the getaway from the red sea to the outskirts of the Indian ocean.

Actually it is you, an ardent supporter of the criminal pirate enclave that is enabling piracy to flourish, we all remember when the Navy funds were directed through Mogadishu but then that changed and went to Garowe. Anyways, I hope these new ships are given to the Mogadishian people and not the pirate enclave who will use it to hijack more ships.

What are these donkeys planning to give them in offer? Last time Siad barre wanted arms credits from China, he signed away the exclusisive economic Zone. And all our fishing rights from Zeila to Kismaayo.
