First time I'm proud of the Somali Parliament

[The`Republic]

In the US, only the executive branch (President and cabinet) make treaties but the US Congress (Senate) has to ratify it by 2/3 or it is rejected

The Somali Interior Minister went to Turkey and got into a treaty with Somaliland where Somalia's office for its airspace would be controlled from Hargeisa.

NOTHING wrong with compromise and trying to be pragmatic but the executive branch was arrogant not consulting with anyone and thinking because they want to they can sign a treaty.

So what happened? Well Parliament brought the executive branch before them and rejected the unilateral decision.

Now the Minister of Information was brought before Parliament to announce the treaty null and void.

Somalia and Somaliland discussion isn't between the President of Somaliland and President of Somalia. It is also incoudes the people of Somalia through their representatives.

Inaalilaah.

this is excellent news.
that the rejection comes from the south.

[oxymoron]

No jobs for iidoors. Somalidiid will be kept islolated and hungry until Yawm al-Qiyāmah.

[gurey25]

isolated?
not yet mate.

this means that the spotlight will be on the issue and it cannot be swept under the carpet like the UN wants.
the Somaliland side has shown itself to be reasonable, but having strong interests.

What you mean not yet? You have been Isolated for the last 21 years Unrecongnizes and living behind the shawdow of Somalia. You will continue in the same path until the whole iidoor nation gets on it's knees for Somalia.

You dumb iidoors got shit messed up for yourselfs. You are a tiny region in North Somalia by all accounts nothing more nothing less. The only thing the U.N will do for you is continue to feed your hungry population.

well of all the pending and pressing issue the somali parliament can exert influence and power on fullfiling, they targeted a fair treaty
that was already a done deal, if they can tackle something why could not they tackle corruption and all the things detrimental
to the recovery . Bad move I say

your phrase first time I am proud of Somali parliament reminds me of Michelle Obama's I am proud of my country for the first time. if you know what i mean

This sets the precedence that any delegation sent to talk to somaliland from the federal government cant be taken serious. get your shit together SFG

lets just hope unwanted minor setbacks like these are avoided next time. future looks bright.

Oxymoron= you know Somalilands Army are just stones throw away from Garowe , I would behave if i were you considering the circumstances

[Thuganomics]

of all the pending and pressing issue the somali parliament can exert influence and power on fullfiling,

Both the OP and the Somali gov are
If that makes him proud,imagine how he'd feel if they actually brought peace and security to their capital

[MaliPirate]

That was a superb shot from the Parliament ..

[BigBreak]

let the talks fail.........anyways somaliland will win at the end

[gurey25]

reconcilliation is a bigger threat to somaliland in the short term so this is good news.

[AhlulbaytSoldier]

The Talks were expected to fail.
Excellent news.

It is good you are out of the hibernation. it shows you are recovering from the pain of Huuraale defeat in Kismayo.
I heard he has been beheaded in Barawe by Godane , warkaas maxaa ka jira?

[Titanium]

The President/PM have veto. They are not going to allow a bunch of qabiilists hijack the gains that have been made between Somalia-Somaliland.

The Talks were expected to fail.
Excellent news.

Why is this excellent news?

[grandpakhalif]

good news we will not tolerate nor accept secessionism.
