Turkey to open military base in Somalia
Following Turkey’s deal to open a military base in Qatar, it is now on the cusps of securing a second base deal, this time in Somalia. The purpose of the Turkish military presence is allegedly to assist Somalia in its fight against the Al-Qaeda affiliated Al-Shabaab terrorist group.
A military source reported to Turkey’s Daily Sabah that the purpose of the base is to train up to 1,500 Somalian troops to fight the terrorist organization.
Al-Shabaab control large swathes of the impoverished country and implements its radical interpretation of Islam through a puritanical version of Sharia Law.
