Maxay Madaxbannaanida Koonfurta Yemen muhiim ugu tahay Nabad dhab ah?

By
  Doodaha ku saabsan mustaqbalka Yemen waxaa inta badan lagu soo koobaa xabbad-joojin, dawlado kumeel-gaar ah, ama qaabab awood-qaybsi oo dibadda laga soo hindisay. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, waxaa jira hal arrin oo mar walba la dhinac maro inkasta oo ay udub-dhexaad u tahay muddada uu dagaalku siday: waa maqaamka siyaasadeed ee aan weli la xallin ee Koonfurta Yemen. Taariikhda iyo Midowgii Fashilmay Koonfurta Yemen waxay ahayd dawlad madaxbannaan oo caalamku aqoonsan yahay ilaa sannadkii 1990-kii, waxaana loo yaqaannay Jamhuuriyadda Dimuqraadiga Shacbiga ee Yemen (PDRY). Waxay lahayd xuduudo go’an, hay’ado dawladeed, iyo xubinimo Qaramada Midoobay ah. Heshiiskii midowga ee lala galay Waqooyiga Yemen waxaa loo soo bandhigay inuu yahay iskaashi dhex maray laba dhinac oo siman oo si mutaddawacnimo ah isugu biiray. Laakiin xaqiiqadii, midowgaas si dhakhso ah ayuu u burburay, wuxuuna horseeday dagaalkii 1994-tii iyo in si nidaamsan loo gacan-bidheeyo dhinaca siyaasadda iyo dhaqaalaha ee da...

UAE's Increasing Investments in Africa: A Strategic Move Toward Economic Expansion

Image
By
In recent years, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has emerged as a significant investor in the African continent, pledging billions of dollars to foster economic development across various sectors. According to Bloomberg reports, between 2022 and 2023 alone, the UAE committed a staggering $97.3 billion in investment pledges to Africa, showcasing its growing interest in the region's burgeoning economies.

The UAE's investment trajectory reflects a strategic approach aimed at deepening trade ties and securing future economic growth opportunities, particularly in light of its 2021 plan to strengthen relations with countries in Africa and Asia. Notably, the country's pledge of $35 billion to Egypt underscores its commitment to bolstering partnerships within the continent.

Thani Al Zeyoudi, the Emirati Minister of State for Trade, emphasized the UAE's intent to aggressively open markets with numerous countries, signaling a proactive stance towards expanding its global footprint. Al Zeyoudi's remarks also alluded to the competitive landscape, acknowledging the potential for increased competition as a means to enlarge the economic "pie" and subsequently enhance the UAE's share within it.

Comparatively, the UAE's investment pledges have surpassed those of other major players, including China, France, the UK, and the US. Despite China's substantial investments amounting to $28.7 billion and France's commitments totaling $31.9 billion during the same period, the UAE has emerged as a formidable contender in Africa's investment landscape.

A closer look at some of the UAE's investment initiatives reveals a focus on diverse sectors and partnerships with key African economies. Companies from the UAE have predominantly directed their attention towards more developed African nations such as Egypt, Morocco, South Africa, and Kenya. Notable examples include AMEA Power's $15 billion commitment to green hydrogen production and renewable projects across Africa, as well as the International Holding Company's acquisition of a majority stake in Zambia's Mopani Copper Mines for $1.1 billion.

Furthermore, initiatives such as Masdar's $4.5 billion climate financing for Africa and AMEA Power's $1 billion equity investment underscore the UAE's commitment to sustainable development and environmental initiatives on the continent.

While investment pledges do not directly translate to actual expenditure, there is growing optimism regarding the UAE's role as a significant source of foreign direct investment (FDI) in Africa over the next five years. Rassem Zok, CEO of Standard Bank Group Limited, Middle East and North Africa, anticipates a return to robust growth in FDI, with projections suggesting a surge in investments from the UAE in the coming years.

In Nigeria, the UAE has solidified its position as a key contributor to foreign investment, with inflows totaling $375.01 million between Q4 2022 and Q3 2023. However, despite its economic significance, diplomatic tensions stemming from Nigeria's visa ban on Emirati citizens in October 2022 highlight the complexities of bilateral relations.

In conclusion, the UAE's increasing investments in Africa represent a strategic endeavor to diversify its economic interests and capitalize on the continent's growth potential. As the UAE continues to forge partnerships and expand its presence in key African markets, its role as a major driver of economic development in the region is poised to strengthen in the years ahead.

Somali Parliamentarians Decry Port Deal Between Ethiopia and Somaliland

Tensions Escalate as Talks Resume Between Somaliland and Federal Government

By
In a region marked by historical complexities and territorial disputes, the recent resumption of talks between the federal government and the breakaway territory of Somaliland has sparked new tensions. The discussions, hosted by President Ismail Omar Guelleh of Djibouti, aimed to navigate the delicate relationship between these entities.
