In early January, Addis Ababa inked a memorandum of understanding with Somaliland that granted the landlocked Horn of Africa nation access to the Red Sea. The next day, Somalia recalled its ambassador to Ethiopia. On January 6, Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud signed a law nullifying the agreement between Somaliland and Ethiopia. Broadcaster CGTN Africa reported an emergency summit of North East African countries convened in Uganda under the auspices of the Intergovernmental Authority on Development called on Ethiopia and Somalia to reduce tensions and return to constructive dialogue.
Somalia collapsed as a unified nation in 1991 with the downfall of Siad Barre's dictatorship. The international community has recognized the Mogadishu-based federal government as the only legitimate authority in Somalia, while chunks of the country in the north and east remain under the control of self-proclaimed and unrecognized Somaliland and Puntland.
