🇸🇴🇪🇹 Somalia rejects Ethiopia-Somaliland port deal and summons ambassador

Somalia said a pact its breakaway region of Somaliland has signed with Ethiopia allowing it to use the Red Sea port of Berbera had no legal force and threatened regional stability.

Somalia also summoned its ambassador to Ethiopia for deliberations over the port agreement signed by Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and Somaliland President Muse Bihi Abdi.

The agreement would allow landlocked Ethiopia to set up commercial operations at a leased military base in Berbera. It also included recognizing Somaliland as an independent nation in due course.

"It is a violation and an open interference with Somalia's sovereignty, freedom and unity. The so-called a memorandum of understanding and agreement of cooperation is null and void," Somalia's cabinet said.

Somalia President Hassan Sheik Mohamud stated that not an inch of Somalia can or will be signed away by anybody.

🌍🇺🇸🇸🇴 AU, US urge respect for Somalia's sovereignty amid row

The African Union and the US have called for the respect of Somalia's sovereignty and territorial integrity, in response to a controversial sea access deal that Ethiopia struck with the self-declared republic of Somaliland.

Somaliland seceded from Somalia in 1991 but is not internationally recognised as an independent state.

US Department of State spokesperson Matthew Miller on Wednesday said that "the United States recognises the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Federal Republic of Somalia within its borders".

AU Commission chair Moussa Faki has also urged for the respect of the "unity, territorial integrity and full sovereignty of Somalia and Ethiopia".

Both the US and AU have also asked the involved parties to pursue diplomatic dialogue to peacefully resolve the row, amid concerns that the deal could escalate tensions in the Horn of Africa region.

🇸🇴🇪🇹 Somalia president signs law nullifying Ethiopia-Somaliland port deal

Somalia's President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud signed a law nullifying an agreement by the breakaway Somaliland region to grant Ethiopia access to the Red Sea in return for recognition as an independent nation, he said.

Somalia, which considers Somaliland part of its territory, rejected the New Year's Day deal that would allow landlocked Ethiopia to lease 20 km around the port of Berbera, on the Gulf of Aden with access to the Red Sea, for 50 years for its navy and commercial purposes.

"This evening, I signed the law nullifying the illegal MoU between the government of Ethiopia and Somaliland," Mohamud said. "This law is an illustration of our commitment to safeguard our unity, sovereignty and territorial integrity as per international law."

Ukrainian blogger Roman Kravets “joker”that works for the office of president of Ukraine treats the families of “draft dodgers” with real estate expropriations

“January 9.

On January 9, a law on mobilization will be adopted.

In 2 days.

In many families, men began to transfer property to their wives, mainly cars.

Fearing seizure of property.

Since one of the norms of the law that they want to adopt is the arrest of the property of a person hiding from the army commissars.

First of all, congratulations to the women.

Secondly, I have bad news for you, arrest may be imposed on the entire family, and not just on the person hiding from the army commissars

Guys, get a divorce.”

Argentina will buy the F16 fighter jet offer from the US and leave the Chinese offer out.

Argentine President Javier Milei and the Minister of Defense, Luis Petri, agreed to advance the acquisition of 24 United States-made F-16 aircraft that are currently in Danish service, the US is both brokering the deal between the Argentine government and the Danish government as well as financing the deal with extremely low interest loans, "The President's decision is clear: we are going to maintain diplomatic alignment with Israel and the United States, so the purchase of American-made supersonic aircraft is consistent with that line," the Government explained about the decision to advance a contract.

For the acquisition of 24 F-16 aircraft from the Danish Air Force that were developed by General Dynamics in the 1970s and are currently manufactured by Lockheed the approval of the United States is required, in this case the US is actively pushing for it.

🇷🇺🇺🇦🗺 Institute for the Study of War: Russian forces may intensify efforts to capture Kupyansk, Kharkiv Oblast, in the coming weeks and have a grouping of forces in the area that appears to be less degraded than Russian groupings responsible for offensive efforts elsewhere in eastern Ukraine.

➡️ Russian forces appear to have conditions conducive to intensifying operations in the Kupyansk direction with the intent of making territorial gains in areas that are more operationally significant than other areas that Russian forces are currently attempting to seize.

➡️ Ukrainian officials have stated that Russian forces aim to capture Kupyansk and Borova (35km west of Svatove) during winter 2024.

➡️ Ukrainian officials have not publicly reported any sudden buildup of Russian forces in the Kupyansk direction indicating that a large-scale offensive to advance to the Oskil River is imminent.

➡️ Russian forces appear to have gradually reconstituted units badly degraded during the Ukrainian counteroffensive in September 2022 and Russia’s failed winter-spring 2023 offensive.

➡️ The Russian command likely intends these relatively well-rested and reconstituted units to intensify localized offensive operations that Russian forces started in the area in October 2023.

🇲🇲🇲🇲📰 Reuters: Artillery shells from restive Myanmar region hit southwest China town

➡️ Five people in a Chinese town near Myanmar were wounded on Wednesday by stray artillery shells from across the border, according to China's state-controlled Global Times, as fighting between Myanmar's junta and rebels persisted despite talks.

➡️ Global Times circulated a video on social media showing one person lying on a pedestrian pavement in front of a row of street stores with people shouting, "Call the police!"

➡️ In the video, Global Times said officials in Zhenkang, a city in Yunnan province, had confirmed shelling that had strayed from Laukkai, an area in Myanmar's Kokang region, hitting Nansan, a town under its jurisdiction, around 2:00 p.m. (0600 GMT) on Wednesday.

➡️ For years, Kokang in Myanmar's Shan state has been a volatile and restive region.

➡️ In 2015, shelling from the area also landed across the border in Yunnan amid fighting between Myanmar government troops and rebels, injuring one Chinese and four Myanmar nationals and angering Beijing.
