5 | Djibouti's strongman leader has been at the helm of the country since 1999 and is holding on despite several national protests asking for a new alternative in the country. | Efa hatramin'ny 1999 ilay lehilahy mpitarika mahery ao Djibouti no teo amin'ny fitantanana ny firenena ary tsy voahozongozona teo, na teo aza ireo hetsi-panoherana marobe nitakiana ny fifandimbiasan-toerana tao amin'ny fireneny. |
6 | The Republic of Djibouti is a former French colony of about 850,000 citizens located between Eritrea, Ethiopia and Somalia. | Zanatany Frantsay fahiny ny Repoblikan'i Djibouti, ahitàna vahoaka eo amin'ny 850.000, hita eo anelanelan'i Eritrea, Etiopia ary Somalia. |
7 | In 2010, Guelleh managed to pass constitutional reform so that he could have a third term in office. | Tamin'ny 2010, vitan'i Guelleh ny nampandany ny fanavaozana lalàm-panorenana mba hahafahany manana fe-potoam-piasana fanintelony hijanonana eo amin'ny toerany. |
8 | This was the exact strategy that provoked the demise of Compoaré in Burkina Faso. | Io tetikady io no tena nitarika tamin'ny fanesorana an'i Compoaré tao Burkina Faso. |

12 | Djiboutian blogger Houssein Ibrahim Houmed wrote the following regarding the events in Burkina Faso: | Nanoratra izao manaraka izao i Houssein Ibrahim Houmed, Djiboutiana bilaogera, mikasika ireo zava-nitranga tao Burkina Faso: |
13 | As seen from Djibouti, I can say with certainty that the members and supporters of Uguta-Toosa (Djibouti) political party support the just struggle of the people of Burkina Faso. I invite the coalition USN (National Union for Salvation) of the Djiboutian opposition to express their unwavering solidarity with the resistance waged against the dictatorship Burkinabe Blaise Compaoré. | Raha avy ao Djibouti no jerena, dia azoko lazaina marina fa ny ady madio / rariny ataon'ny vahoaka ao Burkina Faso no tohanan'ireo mpikambana sy mpanohana avy amin'ny antoko politika Uguta-Toosa (Djibouti) Asaiko ny vovonana USN (National Union for Salvation) an'ireo Djiboutiana mpanohitra mba haneho ny fanohanany tsy misy fepetra ny mpanohitra izay namaky ady tamin'i Blaise Compaoré, ilay Borkinabe mpitondra mpanao jadona. |
14 | Guelleh's regime is well known for its disregard for democracy. | Diso fantatra loatra amin'ny tsy fitiavany demaokrasia ny fitondràn'i Guelleh. |
15 | In 2011, prior to the elections, the government banned all demonstrations and arbitrarily arrested peaceful protesters and opposition leaders, according to Human Rights Watch. | Tamin'ny 2011, nialoha ny fifidianana, voararàn'ny governemanta izay rehetra fihetsiketsehana sady nosambontsamborim-poana ireo mpanao hetsi-panoherana am-pilaminana sy mpitarika ny fanoherana, araka ny voalazan'ny Human Rights Watch. |
16 | Yet, the ongoing struggle for more democracy in Djibouti is intricately linked to the country's relations with its larger neighbors as well as its up-and-coming economy. | Kanefa, ny tolona miainga ankehitriny ao Djibouti mba hisian'ny demaokrasia dia mifamatotra akaiky amin'ny fifandraisana ananan'ny firenena amin'ireo firenena hafa mifanolo-bodirindrina aminy, ary hatramin'ny teokareny vao misonga aza. |
17 | Ethiopia, Eritrea and Somalia have each had challenges of their own to incorporate a sustainable democratic process in their politics. | Samy nisedra fanamby azy ireo manokana avokoa i Etiopia, Eritrea ary Somalia tamin'ny fampidirana dingana demaokratika maharitra ho ao anatin'ny tontolo politikan-dry zareo. |
18 | The emphasis on the fight against terrorism in the region has enabled the rulers of those countries to generously benefit from US aid without much of the usual democratic requirements. | Ny tsindrim-peo napetraka tamin'ny ady atao amin'ny asa fampihorohoroana any amin'ny faritra no nahafahan'ireo mpifehy an'ireny firenena ireny nahazo sitraka manokana tamin'ny fanampian'i Etazonia na dia tsy nahavaly tanteraka amin'ny lafiny maro ny zavatra notakiana mahazatra momba ny demoakrasia aza. |
19 | Moreover, the potential for a quick rising growth in the region has solidified the grip of the Guelleh on its position of power. | Ankoatra izay, ny herijika hisian'ny firoboroboana tampoka sy malaky ao amin'ny faritra dia nanamafy ny vahohon'i Guelleh teo amin'ny toerany. |
20 | Malik Ibrahim, an expert in the Horn of Africa region, explained how Guelleh uses its international network to strengthen its leadership: | Malik Ibrahim, manampahaizana momba ny faritra ao amin'ny Tendron'i Afrika, no nanazava ny fomba ampiasàn'i Guelleh ny tambajotrany iraisam-pirenena mba hanamafisany ny fahaiza-mitarika ananany: |
21 | Americans, French, Germans, Chinese, Russians and even the Japanese have been vying for influence within the country's government. | Amerikana, Frantsay, Alemana, Shinoa, Rosiana ary hatramin'ny Japoney no mifaninana hametraka ny dindony sy ny heviny amin'ny governemanta ao amin'ity firenena ity. |
22 | As a result, Djibouti's main source of income comes from the rents it charges its Western partners for the military facilities it hosts. | Vokany, ny tena loharanom-bola miditra ho an'i Djibouti dia avy amin'ireo haba alainy amin'ireo Tandrefana mpiara-miasa aminy amin'ireo foto-drafitrasa miaramila ampiantranoiny. |
23 | While the exact sums are unclear, the U.S. pays some $60 million a year, while the French and the Japanese both contribute some $30 million. | Raha tsy mazava tsara ny antontam-bola tena izy, i Etazonia manome eo amin'ny $60 tapitrisa isan-taona, raha ny Frantsay sy Japone samy manome eo amin'ny $30 tapitrisa. |
24 | Most recently, the Djiboutian government signed a security and strategic defense partnership with China. | Ny tena akaiky indrindra, nosoniavin'ny governemanta Djiboutiana ny fiaraha-miasa iray eo amin'ny resaka fandriampahalemana sy tetikadim-piarovana iarahany amin'i Shina. |
25 | Djibouti is offering China military facilities in exchange for training of their military forces | Ho tambin'ny fanofànana ny tafika mitam-piadiana ao amin-dry zareo, Djibouti manome fotodrafitrasa miaramila ho ampisain'i Shina. |
26 | However, things can change quickly as the Burkina Faso events have shown. | Kanefa, afaka miova faran'izay haingana ny zavatra rehetra toy ny noporofoin'ireo zava-nitranga tao Burkina Faso. |
27 | Blogger Houssein Ibrahim Houmed, again, offered his hopes for the country: | Naneho indray ny fanantenany ho an'ny fireneny ilay bilaogera Houssein Ibrahim Houmed: |
28 | The end of the Guelleh regime will be effective and consumed only when the rule of law is firmly established in the Republic of Djibouti. | Tsy ho tonga ary tsy ho hita mivaingana ny farany ho an'ny fitondràn'i Guelleh raha tsy rehefa tafapetraka ao amin'ny Repoblikan'i Djibouti ny Tany Tàn-dalàna. |
29 | I hope that the United States of America, Japan and France will favor the advent of democracy here and that they will not condone an extension of the reign of this heinous clan. | Sahiko ny manantena hoe hanao izay hahatanteraka izany demaokrasia izany i Etazonia, Japana ary Frantsa ary tsy hamela ny fandrombahana fahefana avy amin'ireo mpandova tsy maty voalavo an-kibo. |
