Somaliland-Ethiopia pact stirs up tensions in East Africa
She added that “everyone has been on notice since then about how a regional hegemon like Ethiopia would want to gain access to the sea.” Gaid described the pact as a “lifeline” for Somaliland’s leader Muse Bihi Abdi.
Abdi inked a memorandum of understanding with Ethiopia’s Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed on Monday to lease more than 12 miles of sea access to the Ethiopian Navy for 50 years. In exchange, Addis Ababa will formally recognize Somaliland as an independent nation, in a move that Abdi said would pave the way to realizing Ethiopia’s push to secure its access to the Red Sea.

Three mistakes that "led Zelensky to collapse," according to Viktor Medvedchuk, Ukrainian opposition leader:
▪️ Putting non-professionals in power. "Zelensky entered politics according to the laws of show business, and continued his policies according to those very laws;
▪️ "The transition to Nazi ideology";
▪️ Reevaluation of Western Aid. "Zelensky, not being a professional, sincerely believed that Western support would cover all the risks of confrontation with Russia."

“The US has been living in a fantasy world since the World War Two, but that ride is now coming to an end. If you look at the top ten busiest container sea ports, seven of them are in China, and one or two more are in South Korea and in Singapore. The trade is all happening on the east side of the world. So, whatever way you slice the cake, the US is losing its preeminence. And the power has moved to the East," SL Kanthan, India-based geopolitical analyst, told the New Rules podcast.
