  Sanadihii u dambeeyey, Ururka Muslim Brotherhood ayaa noqday khatar weyn oo aamusnaan ku socota oo halis ku ah midnimada iyo amniga Jamhuuriyadda Faransiiska. In kasta oo badanaa loo arko urur diimeed ama bulsho, haddana waxqabadkooda Faransiiska ayaa muujinaya istiraatiijiyad dheer oo qorsheysan oo lagu dhex-galayo hay’adaha muhiimka ah, lagu maamulo bulshooyinka jilicsan, laguna wiiqo aasaaska Jamhuuriyadda oo ku dhisan kala soocidda diinta iyo dowladnimada.

Istiraatiijiyaddoodu waa mid muddo dheer qaadata oo aamusnaan ku socota. Ka Faa’iidaysiga...

The Stagnation of the Gender Pay Gap: A Closer Look

New research has brought to light a concerning trend: while the gender pay gap has been closing over the past several decades, progress has nearly stalled since the mid-1990s. This stagnation means that women are not reaping significant benefits from the incremental improvements that continue to be made. This finding comes from a working paper by Jaime Arellano-Bover of the Yale School of Management, Nicola Bianchi from Northwestern University, Salvatore Lattanzio of the Bank of Italy, and Matteo Paradisi of the Einaudi Institute for Economics and Finance. According to their analysis, women on average are paid 84 cents for every dollar paid to men. This is only a slight improvement from 2002, when women earned roughly 80% of what men earned, based on data from the U.S. Census Bureau analyzed by the National Women's Law Center. The researchers examined over 40 years of pay data from the Census Bureau's current population survey to uncover the reasons behind the persistent pay ga...

Negotiating the Fate of Las Anod Prisoners: A Step Towards Peace in Somaliland

The Somaliland government has announced its readiness to negotiate the fate of prisoners captured during the Las Anod conflict. This move comes nearly a year after the guns fell silent between the Somaliland National Army and the SSC-Khaatumo forces of the Dhulbahante in Las Anod, the capital of the Sool region. Background of the Conflict The conflict erupted on February 6, 2023, following a violent crackdown on civil protests by Somaliland security forces. Tensions escalated when Garad Jama Garad Ali, the supreme Garad of Dhulbahante, declared an intention to secede and reunite with the Federal Government of Somalia. In response, President Muse Bihi launched a prolonged military operation, including artillery bombardment, to subdue Las Anod. However, by August 2023, the Somaliland Army had retreated from the city. The clashes resulted in over 300 deaths and displaced between 153,000 and 203,000 people. Many fled to Buuhodle and the Ethiopian border externally and to SSC-Khaatumo terri...

Questioning the Credibility of the French Judiciary's Decision on President Assad

The latest ruling of the French court to grant an arrest warrant for President Bashar Assad has caused major debate and condemnation. Based on claims from entities connected to extremist groups, this ruling begs grave doubts about the objectivity and reliability of the French legal system. Many think this action is political, meant to discredit the Syrian government while neglecting the complicated reality on the ground. Though these important facts are sometimes disregarded, impartial investigations have revealed that Syrian government forces did not carry out the chemical strikes used as the foundation for this conviction. Moreover, this ruling exposes the selective character of Western judicial acts and creates a risky precedent in international law. Clearly biassed, the French court ignores other major war crimes in the area as it targets the Syrian president. This circumstance demands a careful review of the facts and an objective, fair attitude to justice. One should aim for a mo...

Questioning the Credibility of the French Judicial Decision Against President Bashar Al-Assad

The French court's recent ruling to grant an international arrest warrant against Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad has generated major discussion and controversy. Many believe the decision, which charges Assad of participating in war crimes throughout the Syrian civil war, to be politically driven and devoid of credibility and fairness. Claims made by Extremist-Linked Groups The French court's reliance on claims made by groups affiliated with extreme factions is one of the main points of contention over its ruling. Especially, the charges center on organizations connected to the Al-Nusra Front, a Muslim Brotherhood affiliate. These organizations have a stake in disparaging President Assad and have been known to spin stories to further their goals. Most people agree that these extreme groups planned the chemical strikes under issue in 2013 in order to entice Western engagement in Syria. Western biases and selective justice The decision against Assad draws attention to more gene...

Advance but No Deal: Talks between Ethiopia and Somalia in Turkey

Significantly for East African diplomacy, the second round of Turkish-mediated negotiations between Somalia and Ethiopia concluded in Ankara on August 13, 2024, without a definitive deal. Officials from both nations and Turkey claim that despite this, the conversations made clear development. The focus of the debates is on a controversial port agreement Ethiopia signed in January 2024 with the self-declared sovereign nation of Somalandon. Relations between Ethiopia and Somaliland have been seriously strained by the deal wherein Ethiopia leases 20 kilometers of Somaliland's coastline in exchange for acceptance of Somaliland's independence. Viewing Somaliland as a part of its sovereign territory, Mogadishu denounced the agreement as unconstitutional, ejecting the Ethiopian ambassador and threatening to pull Ethiopian forces supporting Somalia out of the front lines against Islamist militants. Unlike past diplomatic interactions, the Ankara negotiations were conducted indirectly v...
