@torunkani@Abdirahmanirro Dr. Torun, before you shame Somaliland, perhaps you should look at your own country's trade statistics. Turkey remains one of Israel's significant trading partners in the region, with billions in commerce flowing even during conflicts.
@IsraelMFA@yyusufd Thank you @IsraelMFA 🇮🇱 You are the first to loudly read the verdict of the 2005 AU Report. The Union was Null and Void because it was never ratified. Somaliland appreciates a partner who reads the fine print of history. We are ready for the future!
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of the Republic of Somaliland hereby announces that the Government of the Republic of Somaliland has recalled its Representative to the Republic of Djibouti to Hargeisa for consultations.
@somalilandmfa They know a recognized SL means competition they can't handle. This diplomatic recall is necessary we need to stop pretending that a neighbor actively sabotaging our economy is a friend. We are open to the world but not to those who want to keep us in the dark. 🚢 #SomalilandFirs
@YusufErim34 Somaliland has built functioning institutions, held elections and maintained security for three decades. Ignoring this reality while claiming support for all Somali people weakens that argument.
@khadarlooge These represent the most powerful Muslim nations on earth. When they deal with Israel, it's called National Interest. When Somaliland does it, it's called Treason. We refuse to accept this double standard. We will pursue our national interest just like they do.
@torunkani If friendship with nations invalidates faith then diplomacy itself becomes un Islamic which history clearly disproves Politics should not weaponize religion.
The Prime Minister announced today the official recognition of the Republic of Somaliland as an independent and sovereign state.
Prime Minister Netanyahu, Foreign Minister Sa'ar, and the President of the Republic of Somaliland signed a joint and mutual declaration.
@somalilandmfa 5/5 As a citizen of Somaliland, I respectfully ask:
When our sovereignty is denied publicly on a global stage, shouldn’t the response be a direct and firm rejection, not just a procedural clarification?
@somalilandmfa 4/5 Let us be honest: these two statements are not equal. One side is denying the existence of Somaliland as a state. The other side is only clarifying whether talks exist or not.
@somalilandmfa 3/5 And this is what our Ministry replied: “There are no ongoing talks. Dialogue was suspended earlier this year due to Somalia’s interference.”
@somalilandmfa 2/5 He even linked the issue to the Red Sea, the Suez Canal, the 1884 colonial division of Africa, and the strategic value of the Gulf of Aden turning Somaliland into a geopolitical bargaining point.
@somalilandmfa 1/5 This is what the Foreign Minister of Somalia publicly said in Doha: “We are closely working with the administration in the Somaliland region. Somaliland is part of Somalia. We have direct communication with them, and we hope to resolve this in due time.”
@US2SOMALIA On June 26, as we commemorate Somaliland's Independence Day, we call on you (American) to recognize and honor this historic occasion unique to the people of Somaliland. It is critical to distinguish it from Somalia and appreciate their well-deserved celebration.
Today, I solemnly recall the historic moment on June 26, 1960, when the independent Somali flag was triumphantly raised on Somali soil." On this momentous day, I express my sincere congratulations to Somaliland's resilient people. #SomalilandPride#IndependenceDay"
