The Turkish Navy is set to be deployed to Somalia as part of a 10-year Defense Agreement signed between Somalia and Türkiye. This agreement aims to address and prevent various illegal activities, including terrorism, external threats, and piracy, while also focusing on the protection of Somalia’s coastline and the development of its maritime resources.
The decision follows the recent deployment of the Royal Saudi Naval Forces to Yemen, suggesting a shift in regional military dynamics. The Turkish Navy"s involvement is expected to enhance security measures in the region.
As previously reported, the Defense Agreement underscores the commitment of both nations to collaborate on security issues. The agreement is part of broader efforts to stabilize Somalia and protect its interests in the face of ongoing challenges.
