Almost out of nowhere, recent developments have put Somaliland squarely in the international conversation; this is not random. A major realignment is now underway.
You mean tourist Mayor Pete, who was a Harvard graduate and an Oxford Rhodes Scholar, Naval Intelligence Officer and special forces in Afghanistan, oh, that tourist Buttigieg. Yeah, nothing to see here.
Interesting. During the European colonization of Africa, southern Somalia was colonized by the Italians and northern Somalia, now called Somaliland, was colonized by the British. What remains are two distinct groups as a result of different colonial administration. Functionally they are two distinct countries… not unlike China and Taiwan. On a personal level I believe Somaliland should be a separate country, the same as Taiwan should be. On a political level… I am not a politician and would comment from a position of ignorance.
This is an abomination, the Empire exposed in all is cruelty and malfeasance . This will cause trouble across Africa and the Middle East, which is probably part of the play.
I haven't heard much about Somaliland before but I'm curious now. What you said about narrative control is concerning though. The location Is strategic and I worry that it may be used by other powers to gain advantage, in an underhanded way.
