this is the greatest map I’ve ever seen. There’s literally a suburb of Cairo that’s listed as it’s own ethnicity, and half the names on here are racial slurs.

Just the wrongest map ever. The replies are all 1. Racists 2. Africans mad that this insane map keeps getting posted 3. Libs who believe the right to self-determination doesn’t apply to people with skin darker than a paper bag.

Really dumb move considering the AKP are shooting themselves on the foot with their female voters right now as the newly voted congressmen are now trying to pass some sicko poo poo as laws. Then again I guess they really want the Ogân voters (secular racists).

Somalia was one of the few African countries to condemn the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and lost the deal they had with Russia vetoing the stupid arms embargo as a result.

Russia doesn’t have an Embassy in Mogadishu; its Ambassador in Djibouti holds the post as his secondment.

Somalia and the former Soviet Union had good relations from 60s to early 70s but Somalia cut ties after Moscow supported Ethiopia in the 1977 Ogaden war.

So looking at this embargo, it seems like Somalia can legally import a bunch of stuff if they give notice, and even more stuff if the SC doesn't object. Looks like it's mostly looking to restrict components of IEDs. Oh and ban the export of charcoal, which seems pretty hosed up given it's a major export.

the UN posted:

Annex A – Items subject to a no-objection process
1. Surface to air missiles, including Man-Portable Air-Defence Systems (MANPADS);
2. Weapons with a calibre greater than 14.7 mm, and components specially designed for these, and associated ammunition; (a) Note: (This does not include shoulder fired anti-tank rocket launchers such
as RPGs or LAWs (light anti-tank weapon), rifle grenades, or grenade launchers.); 3. Mortars with a calibre greater than 82 mm and associated ammunition;
4. Anti-tank guided weapons, including Anti-tank Guided Missiles (ATGMs) and ammunition and components specially designed for these items;
5. Charges and devices specifically designed or modified for military use; mines and related materiel; 6. Weapon sights with a night vision capability greater than generation 2;
7. Fixed wing, swivel wing, tilt rotor or tilt wing aircraft, specifically designed or modified for military use; 8.
‘Vessels’ and amphibious vehicles specifically designed or modified for military use;

Given that it’s Kenya that’s responsible for most of the charcoal exports (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...E96D01A20130714) and that no other country has an arms embargo and that it’s against international law and makes the Somali government appear even more illegitimate and unpopular (plus AS won’t pay attention to an arms embargo anyway!) it’s one of the stupidest policies that western governments have in regards to The Somali Republic, but go on ahead and defend it.

no, also the army is capped at 18,000. Unforch America’s Somalia policy is outsourced to Kenya and Ethiopia, who generally have an interest in an unstable, weak Somalia, just like Pakistan and Afghanistan or Rwanda and the Congo.

also corrupt western ngo’s who help warlords drive farmers off their land so they can drum up more aid which they spend on their mansions in London or NOVA.
