Ethiopia, Somalia Begin Talks to Resolve Maritime Dispute
Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's recent visit to Somalia marks a significant step toward improving relations between the two nations, which had been strained due to Ethiopia's plans to lease a coastal area in Somaliland. The proposed development of a naval base led Somalia to accuse Ethiopia of infringing on its sovereignty, escalating tensions. During the visit, Abiy and Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud agreed to negotiations mediated by Turkey to address maritime access issues while respecting Somalia's territorial integrity. The leaders' warm meeting, amidst security concerns in Mogadishu, symbolizes a commitment to foster bilateral ties and resolve previous disputes. Reports indicate that the two nations aim to establish agreements that benefit both parties, ensuring Ethiopia's access to crucial maritime trade routes. This diplomatic thaw follows a series of recent engagements, including a meeting in Turkey aimed at laying the groundwork for continued dialogue.
