ETHIOPIA CAN ACCESS SEA OUTLETS IN SOMALIA

WDM EDITORIAL

Let us be honest with ourselves – Ethiopia could access Somali seaports by either military intervention or by a series of mutually beneficial commercial agreements. For Somalia, the two scenarios aren’t choosing bad from worst. It is choosing a good deal from bad one. Commercial agreements to give Ethiopia access to the sea is in the best interest both countries. It is a win-win situation.

The Indian Ocean Port of Gara’ad provides as well immense opportunities for Ethiopia’s growing economy and rapidly increasing population.

WDM welcomes such commercial links and peaceful economic cooperation with Ethiopia. Ethiopia is a huge market for Somalia.
