The judgement, which is binding and without appeal, was unanimous in its finding that there is no agreed maritime boundary between the two states, according to an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.icj-cij.org\/public\/files\/case-related\/161\/161-20211012-PRE-01-00-EN.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ICJ<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> press release.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The case, which was filed on August 28, 2014, was brought to the ICJ by Somalia to determine the maritime boundary dividing areas between itself and Kenya, which are adjacent states on the coast of East Africa. According to the official <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.icj-cij.org\/public\/files\/case-related\/161\/161-20211012-JUD-01-00-EN.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ICJ<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> judgement, Somalia argued for an unadjusted equidistant line through all maritime areas, while Kenya contended that the maritime boundary was already agreed, with Somalia acquiescing to a boundary following parallel of latitude.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The disputed area, a 38,000 square mile triangle in the Indian Ocean, has been at the heart of diplomatic tensions between Kenya and Somalia because it is thought to be rich in oil and gas. While the ICJ\u2019s border ruling splits the disputed area almost equally between the two states, the new boundary was closest to a line proposed by Somalia. Somalia has subsequently been given several offshore oil blocks claimed by Kenya, reports <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/africa\/world-court-rule-kenya-somalia-sea-border-row-2021-10-12\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Reuters<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Kenya has not only rejected the ruling \u201cin totality,\u201d but also accused the ICJ of bias, according to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-africa-58885535\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">BBC News<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. In a statement published by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.president.go.ke\/2021\/10\/13\/statement-by-h-e-hon-uhuru-kenyatta-cgh-president-of-the-republic-of-kenya-and-commander-in-chief-of-the-defence-forces-on-the-international-court-of-justice-judgement-in-maritime-delimitation-ca\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Kenya\u2019s Presidency<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, President Uhuru Kenyatta cited concerns over the ICJ\u2019s \u201cjurisdictional overreach\u201d and implications for the respect of sovereignty and consent of states to the international judicial process. Kenya withdrew its recognition of the compulsory jurisdiction of the ICJ on September 24. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2021\/10\/13\/kenya-rejects-icjs-verdict-on-somalia-maritime-border-row\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Al Jazeera<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> reports that the Court addressed Kenya\u2019s claims, stating there is no legal ground to reject the judgement because it cannot retroactively renege the Court\u2019s authority to which it acceded in the 1960s.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The resultant strain on Kenyan-Somali relations has several economic and security implications, particularly in the fight against terrorist networks, according to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/2021\/10\/12\/icj-kenya-somalia-dispute\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Washington Post<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. For Somalia in particular, Kenya has been a major contributor of troops to its fight against the Somalia-based al-Shabab terrorist group, which regularly carries out attacks within Somalia and against its neighbors. Tensions are further complicated by the lack of enforcement mechanisms for the ICJ, but with Kenya rejecting the ruling, the issue could be escalated to the United Nations Security Council, reports <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-africa-58885535\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">BBC News<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">During its course, the maritime dispute has attracted international attention from those who are keen to benefit from the resource-rich block. Global powers have all taken different sides, according to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/qz.com\/africa\/1743984\/us-uk-france-norway-pick-sides-in-kenya-somalia-maritime-row\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Quartz Africa<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. The UK and Norway, for example, have been backing Somalia. For Britain, UK-Kenyan relations have been strained since the election of President Kenyatta,\u00a0 as Kenyatta was a suspect at the International Criminal Court for post-election violence in 2007. Norway, on the other hand, enjoys a personal connection to Somalian Prime Minister Hassan Ali Khayre, who is a Norwegian citizen, while also clashing with Kenya over its expulsion of Statoil, a Norwegian oil giant. Conversely, the United States and France have backed Kenya. U.S.-Kenyan relations have gained traction through a partnership in the \u201cwar against terror\u201d and trade deals worth a combined $100 million. Meanwhile, Total One, a French multinational oil company, was contracted by Kenya in the disputed maritime area.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Given the tension surrounding the ICJ ruling, Kenya\u2019s refutation, the value of the disputed zone, and the compounding interests of international actors, it is unclear what will happen next in the conflict. An escalation could result in the involvement of the UN Security Council, however, with the permanent members\u2019 historical track of backing separate sides, the outcome of such events remains ambiguous. What is clear is that further negotiations between Somalia and Kenya will be necessary to come to a full resolution.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has ruled in favor of Somalia in a maritime time dispute case instituted against Kenya over the delimitation of maritime spaces claimed by both states in the Indian Ocean.
