French Oil company "Total" sitting on Somali waters!

Post by Coeus »

On Wednesday September 21st 2011 The French Oil giant Total acquires “40% interest in five offshore exploration blocks in the Lamu Basin, blocks L5, L7, L11a, L11b and L12”

( see company press release here:http://www.total.com/en/about-total/new ... dActu=2654).

This is not actually in the Lamu Basin alone but encroaches on Somalia’s southern (Kismayo) Exclusive Economic Zone which is the target of the Kenyan Military occupation forces.

On October 8th 2011 the Somalia parliament overwhelmingly rejected and made illegal any attempt to meddle or change the Somalia's Exclusive Economic Zone. This is an area where Kenyan officials were lobbying to reduce Somalia’s Exclusive Economic Zone from 200 to 12 nautical miles.

Ten days later on October 18th Kenyan military invades Somalia with air cover provided by French Navy’s Air Wing in a pretext that they are after Islamist militias. :?

According to the UK ,the French president might be at the London conference.

What does this say about French ,Kenyan involvment? :shock:

So what is Ghandhi the Azania puppets role?

Mr. Gandi is a geologist by trade and consulted for Total- a giant French oil company prior joining the TFG as minister of defense. Opting out to play as an enlightened warlord, he resigned the ministerial position and struck oil exploitation deal with Total and Norwegian oil co. offshore oil fields of Jubba territorial waters. Just outside Kismayo

Keep an eye on France in this coming meeting. I have no doubt that the smelly french indeed plan to find a way to make it an obligation for the TFG to reduce their territorial waters.

^Oops, I see the San Fransisco dweller who grew up in quartier 1 and quartier 2 sections of DJibouti now defending his old French buddies :shock: :( :down: :down:



Back to the topic, French Total is the company bankrolling Kenya's efforts to seize Somalia's continental shelf.
