Ethiopia and Somalia Reach Compromise on Somaliland Tensions

Somalia and Ethiopia have reached a joint declaration to resolve their dispute over the Somaliland region and Ethiopia's need for sea access, following mediation by Turkish President Erdogan. The agreement, announced in Ankara, aims to foster peace and cooperation, with both nations committing to work on commercial and bilateral arrangements to ensure Ethiopia's access to the sea under Somalia's sovereignty. This development follows tensions over Ethiopia's previous deal with Somaliland, which Somalia viewed as a sovereignty violation.
