Somalia’s Defense Minister, Abdulkadir Mohamed Nur, strongly criticized Ethiopia’s government under Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, labeling it as “a failure.”
He also accused Ethiopia of having a foreign policy dictated by military interests.
Nur warned that if Ethiopia chooses conflict over peaceful resolutions, it could lead to potential bloodshed.
His comments reflect growing tensions between the two neighboring countries, potentially linked to disputes over border issues and regional security challenges.
This marks a significant escalation in rhetoric and highlights the fragile relationship between Somalia and Ethiopia in the Horn of Africa.
