United Arab Emirates to build military base in self-declared republic of Somaliland

A memorandum of understanding signed between the two sides indicates that the proposed military base is to be located at the port of Berbera.

Somaliland’s Transport Minister FARHAAN AADAN HAYBE said the issue would be debated in parliament.

Somaliland had earlier this year signed a deal with a UAE ports giant to develop the port at Berbera, which mainly exports livestock to the Middle East.
