@MPKoshin Really? Are you kidding? A member of parliament asking for punitive measures against his own country and president? This is wrong.

[Hon Ahmed Abdi (Koshin) @MPKoshin]

The man in Villa Somalia doesn’t want peace, stability & dialogue. Time for punitive measures such as imposing sanctions and travel ban. Then only he will listen.

The great USA stands with Somalia’s people, its sovereignty and territorial integrity. This is in line with all international laws and norms. This isn’t an exception.

[Mohamed Abdullahi @mometov]

We thank the United States of America for its steadfast support for the unity, territorial integrity & sovereignty of the Federal Republic of Somalia. Since establishing diplomatic relations in 1960, Somalia & United States have enjoyed a strong ties based on mutual respect.🇸🇴🇺🇸

[Abdi Dirshe @ADirshe]

@AbdirizakOm Right on. Minister Ali Omar has rightly pointed out exactly the point you have made. I wonder whether misrepresenting the Minister’s position will have any effect at all.

[Abdirizak Mohamed MP @AbdirizakOm]

Taking Minister’s post out of context.The essence of his post is🇸🇴 will partner on maritime & security matters with countries that have no nefarious agenda to infringe its sovereignty. “true partnership must respect 🇸🇴’s sovereignty, constitutional order & territorial integrity”

The old guard from northern Somalia— like the current regional government leader who are mostly officials from the Siad Barre government—have held power for decades by feeding younger generations a false narrative of collective southern blame. Now, desperate to avoid handing over power to young progressive northerners, they push an illegal diplomatic setup with Israel. This isn’t about sovereignty—it’s about survival. An already dire situation in Hargeisa is sure to be enflamed more. #Somaliland #Israel #Somalia

#Somali people in South Africa must get support and protection from our government. We also must stand in solidarity with other African sisters and brothers who are being inhumanely targeted by South African ignorant gangs. We must hold the S.A. government accountable for all the atrocities committed against our people. Somalia and Somalis have sacrificed for the freedom of South Africa and it seems the current generation has forgotten it, we must remind them.

H.E. Hassan Sheik Mohamud strategic engagement with partners increasingly advances Somalia’s investment opportunities. China’s strategic investments in Somalia will undoubtedly translate into more economic empowerment to many entrepreneurs and innovators in Somalia. Fisheries is a key priority for Somalia in a country that has has flourishing small scale industries, digital economy and mobile technology.

[Villa Somalia @TheVillaSomalia]

H.E. President @HassanSMohamud received Amb. Hu Changchun, Special Envoy of the People’s Republic of China to the Horn of Africa, at the Villa Somalia Presidential Palace.

They discussed further strengthening the longstanding bilateral relations between Somalia and China, enhancing cooperation on peace, security and development in the Horn of Africa, and exploring opportunities to expand economic engagement and regional collaboration.

Today is not an ordinary day. It is a meaningful day in the journey of a nation that has worked hard, endured much, and continued to believe in its future. We thank Allah for this moment, and we welcome it with gratitude and hope.

A while ago, we gathered here at the beginning of Somalia’s oil and gas exploration. At that time, it was about possibility and early steps. Today, we are seeing real progress as the country moves into the next stage; drilling and further development of its natural resources.

This progress did not come easily. It came through patience, sacrifice, consultation, and trust in Allah. It also came through unity, when unity was needed most.

Somalia is changing. It is moving from insecurity toward stability, from division toward unity, from hardship toward a better and more hopeful future. This is not by chance, but through effort and determination.

We have a clear direction. Vision 2060 sets out a long-term future for Somalia. It is not just a plan on paper; it is a national commitment to building a stronger country over time. Alongside it is a practical transformation plan that guides the work of government in clear stages.

But for this journey to succeed, the people must stay focused. We should not be distracted by false messages or outside narratives meant to divide or mislead.

Somalia’s future must be shaped by Somalis themselves. This is a time to stay united. A time to protect opportunity. A time to move forward together.
Somalia today is not the Somalia of the past. It is a country learning to stand on its own, to make its own decisions, and to build its own future. Step by step, it is moving toward self-reliance and dignity.
The path ahead is clear. It will require unity, patience, and commitment. But if we walk together, there is no limit to what Somalia can achieve.

[Abdi Dirshe @ADirshe]

I welcomed Türkiye’s Energy Minister Alparslan Bayraktar to Mogadishu today. Our talks reaffirmed the strong Somalia–Türkiye partnership, focusing on energy, natural resources & blue economy. The arrival of the Cagri Bay drilling project ushers in new chapter of shared progress.

اكتمل الدستور… وسقطت شعارات العاجزين!

على مدى سنواتٍ طويلة، تعاقب رؤساء كُثُر ووعدوا بإكمال الدستور، لكنهم لم يُوَفَّقوا لأسبابٍ وظروفٍ ظلّ معظمها غير معلومٍ للشعب، فبقيت الوعود حبيسة التصريحات، وبقيت الدولة تنتظر الحسم.

اليوم، في عهد فخامة الرئيس الدكتور حسن شيخ محمود، لم يكن إكمال الدستور شعارًا للاستهلاك السياسي، بل التزامًا واضحًا ضمن برنامجه الانتخابي وخطة حكومته، وقد تحقق بفضل الله أولًا، ثم بعزيمة القيادة، وبجهود الرئيس وتنسيقه الكامل مع دولة رئيس الوزراء حمزة عبدي بري، ومؤسسات الدولة التي وضعت مصلحة الوطن فوق كل اعتبار.

إكمال الدستور ليس إنجازًا بروتوكوليًا، بل هو حجر الأساس لوحدة الأمة الصومالية، وترسيخ النظام السياسي، وتعزيز الاقتصاد، وتثبيت الأمن والاستقرار. إنها خطوة مفصلية تنقل البلاد من مرحلة الانتظار والتردد إلى مرحلة البناء الراسخ والإرادة الوطنية الصلبة.

أما الذين اعتادوا التشكيك ونشر الإحباط، فليدركوا أن زمن التعطيل ولى، وأن من عجزوا بالأمس عن الوفاء بوعودهم لا يملكون اليوم أي حق في الطعن بما تحقق. التاريخ لا يخلّد الضجيج، بل يُخلّد العمل الجاد والنتائج الملموسة.

هنيئًا للشعب الصومالي هذا الإنجاز الوطني الكبير، الذي سيترك أثره الإيجابي على وحدة البلاد، واستقرارها السياسي، ونموها الاقتصادي، وأمنها الشامل. إنها صفحة جديدة تُكتب بإرادة حاسمة وأمل مشرق، وبلا مجال لمن يريدون التلاعب بمستقبل الأمة.

[Abdi Dirshe @ADirshe]

This is crucial step for Somalia to enforce its laws to protect its maritime domain from criminals who have been involved in illicit activities across Somali coast. The Ministry of Fisheries and Blue Economy works closely with the Somali navy and coastguard to reduce illegal fishing incidents. We extend our sincere thanks to Turkiye for its commitment and support.

🇹🇷🇸🇴 Türkiye, Cadale Yakınlarında Somali Donanması İçin Deniz Eğitim Üssü Kurdu

Türkiye, Somali Ulusal Ordusu Deniz Kuvvetleri’nin kapasitesini güçlendirmek amacıyla Cadale yakınlarında yeni bir deniz eğitim üssünü resmen faaliyete geçirdi. Bu gelişme, Türkiye–Somali askerî iş birliğinin deniz boyutunda kayda değer bir genişlemeye işaret ediyor.

Yeni kurulan Cadale Deniz Eğitim Birliği’nin komutanlığına Teğmen İsmail Abdiaziz atandı.

Operasyonel ve Stratejik Gelişmeler

Geçtiğimiz ay Türkiye, üssün tam operasyonel kabiliyete ulaşmasını sağlamak amacıyla bölgeye ağır askerî teçhizat ve ilave personel sevk etti. Tesisin güvenliği hâlihazırda Somali’nin seçkin Gorgor birlikleri ile Türk unsurları tarafından müşterek şekilde sağlanıyor.

Ayrıca bölgeye konuşlandırılan devriye botları, Somali’nin orta kıyı hattında kıyı güvenliği, deniz gözetleme ve devriye faaliyetlerini önemli ölçüde güçlendirdi.

Stratejik Önemi

▪️ Somali Donanması’nın operasyonel kapasitesini ve deniz savunma yeteneklerini artırıyor
▪️ Türkiye’nin Afrika Boynuzu’ndaki uzun vadeli askerî varlığını pekiştiriyor
▪️ Terörle mücadele ve kaçakçılıkla mücadele faaliyetlerine katkı sağlıyor
▪️ Somali’nin karasuları ile deniz yetki alanlarının ve doğal kaynaklarının korunmasını destekliyor

Cadale Deniz Eğitim Üssü’nün faaliyete geçmesi, Somali’nin deniz kuvvetlerinde temel eğitim aşamasından, kurumsal ve yapılandırılmış bir deniz gücü modernizasyonuna geçildiğini gösteren önemli bir adım olarak değerlendiriliyor.

Türkiye, Somali Silahlı Kuvvetleri’nin yeniden yapılandırılması ve profesyonelleştirilmesine yönelik desteğini sürdürürken, iki ülke arasındaki savunma iş birliği deniz ve kıyı güvenliği alanlarında daha derin ve kapsamlı bir aşamaya taşınmış durumda.
