We retraite to the world and Somalia once and for all. There was no legal union between the Republic of Somaliland and Somalia. Our independence allows us to get into agreements for the benefit of our people and we don't need anyone's consent for that. (1/2)
Somaliland Intelligence Agency brought journalist Mohamed Abdi Sheikh before a military court today, an unprecedented move in the history of #Somaliland.
The Ethiopian seems that they are receiving a lot of enthusiasts countries who deeply interested to them, after the historical Ethio-Somaliland agreement.
These countries include Somalia, Djabouti and Eritrea are offering Ethiopia to stop looking for Somaliland and look them.
The current regime failed the state and the only way is to let them go, by the way we don't have to mix the things, the coalition has nothing to do with the Mou, It will be discussed in due course.

This was not part of the Mou, these kind of statement doesn't concern #somaliland , abiye is the one who proposed mutual understanding if he is not ready to give what he promised in a well respected manner then somaliland has nothing to offer.
To all #Somaliland’ers:
- @somalilandmfa salutes you all for your efforts towards the cause
- debunk lies with solid facts
- when responding to everyone, esp to foreign diplomats & dignitaries, respond in a measured, civil tone & with FACTS.
Remember you are ambassadors of SL
#Somalilanders doesn't need deep assessment or any rhotic empty promises, this is give and take business , if u can't give then u can take. This must be clear.

Accès à la mer pour l’Éthiopie
Je me réjouis de l’annonce de l’accord entre l’#Éthiopie et le #Somaliland.
Depuis 33 ans, le Somaliland est une démocratie indépendante, non reconnue par les Nations Unies.
Cet accord constitue une première reconnaissance du Somaliland par un État africain.
Mogadiscio devrait prendre l’exemple de Prague pour gérer le divorce entre la République tchèque et la Slovaquie, et formaliser cette séparation de fait entre le Somaliland et la Somalie, depuis 1991, pour repartir d’un bon pied avec son voisin et conforter la sécurité dans la corne de l’Afrique.
