2- Political corruption: It is a political power that is implemented as a contract, service for money, and business to arrest individuals.
This often happens because the person with political power is in the meeting for the benefit or is being nursed by individuals in his family, or they are in the same clan or group and friends.
3- Strategic bribery: It is possible that part of the territory of the republic or the independence of the nation will be given up, or the vote of the government that is aligned with competing governments will be sold.
For example, Somalia is a member of various regional organizations, the United Nations, and will be a member of the Security Council next year.
Strategic corruption has not happened yet, but if the other two current factions are not prevented, politicians and other civil society powers, and the media resign, there is nothing to prevent a strategic corruption.
