Hargeysa, Somaliland, March 27, 2010 (SL Times) – A Russian delegation arrived in Berbera, Somaliland, this week. The Russian delegation included businessmen and Russian television.
The Russian delegation met with the management of Berbera Port, and its overall manager, Eng. Ali Omar (Hor-Hor). The Russian delegation also met with Somaliland President Dahir Rayale Kahin. Moreover, according to Qarannews.com, “the Russian group were the guest at a formal luncheon in their honor hosted by members of the Somaliland community educated and trained in Russia, several of whom are fluent Russian speakers.”
It is no surprise that the Russians are interested in Berbera’s port since they used to have a large military base there and are very familiar with Berbera.
