Absolutely, you're right. There are no real diplomatic ties between Somalia and Eritrea. The ties are merely compassionate. We understand their problems and they understand our situation.
Although Ethiopia has an embassy in Mogadishu and we've got one in Addis, there are no real diplomatic ties between Ethiopia and Somalia, and the current ties are only limited to Abiy and HSM or Farmajo receiving each other and smiling at each other, which doesn't reflect upon Somalis at all.
I believe for us to have real diplomatic ties with Ethiopia there's a long way to go. We don't have any trust in Ethiopia. For us, Abiy is not Ethiopia, neither is Ethiopia Abiy Ahmed.
If Afwerki is serious about the regional integration that he likes to talk about these days, he should better approach Djibouti to start with.
