Parliament in Somalia has approved a major defence agreement with Turkey. Under the ten-year deal, Turkey will arm and train Somali navy forces and deploy its ships in Somali waters. Analysts say it's a major step in enhancing Somalia’s maritime security. Prime Minister Hamza Abdi says the deal eliminates - in his words - fears of terrorism, piracy, illegal fishing and the dumping of toxic waste. It comes as Ethiopia signed a controversial agreement with the self-declared republic of Somaliland, which has increased tensions between Mogadishu and Addis Ababa.
