Somalia has officially confirmed a security pact with Egypt, which parallels existing agreements with the United States and Turkey.
This pact aims to enhance military cooperation, address security challenges, and promote stability in the region.
The agreement was announced following discussions between Somali officials and Egyptian representatives, focusing on mutual interests in counter-terrorism efforts, military training, and equipment support.
This collaboration is seen as a strategic move to bolster Somalia’s defense capabilities, especially amid ongoing security threats from groups like Al-Shabaab.
Both nations are expected to work closely to implement this pact.
Through it, they seek to enhance cooperation in areas such as intelligence sharing and joint military exercises, further solidifying their partnership in regional security matters.
