The Government of Djibouti B727-191 J2-KBA, msn 19394 fuel stopped on it's way to Canada with President Ismail Omar Guelleh who was travelling to Quebec City for the 12th Francophonie Summit. The Summit is attended by French speaking nations and at this year's event there were representatives of 55 nations present.
Following the summit, President Guelleh attended a UN Security Council meeting in New York which was called to resolve a border dispute with Eritrea, so as of today the aircraft should still be Stateside.
