Somalia, Eritrea and Egypt have agreed to establish a strategic tripartite alliance for cooperation among these countries.
Somalia will benefit from this alliance to rebuild its armed forces, and achieve joint defense in order to defend the Somali seas and waters from Ethiopia.
This development comes after Ethiopia signed a joint cooperation memorandum with Somaliland, granting Ethiopia a sea outlet and a military base for its forces.
In the coming days, the terms of the agreement and the joint statement between the parties of the tripartite alliance will be known.
