In February 2019, Kenyan officials have alleged that Somalia is engaged in an inappropriate auctioning of drilling rights along the African coast of the Ocean off Jubaland. The International Court of Arbitration has scheduled procedures for September 2019 concerning maritime territorial waters, which Somali sources indicate is being pre-empted by the Kenyan officials. Kenya demanded Somalia to abandon its ICJ case for bilateral discussion. Somalia sees this as delaying tactics as discussion did not produce results between 2009 and 2014. Kenya gave mining rights to France and Italian companies in 2009, however, accused Somalia of doing the same. Somalia denied the accusation. Somalia won the majority of their case off the Jubaland coast on the maritime dispute in 2020 at the ICJ (International Court of Justice).<ref>{{cite news |last1=Berg |first1=Stephanie van den |date=13 October 2021 |title=World Court sides mostly with Somalia in border dispute with Kenya |url=https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/world-court-rule-kenya-somalia-sea-border-row-2021-10-12/ |work=[[Reuters]]}}</ref>
