🚨 BREAKING NEWS

The Republic of Somaliland is rapidly gaining visibility in the United States, with growing calls for official recognition emerging across media and political circles.

This comes after Hassan Aden appeared on Rob Schmitt Tonight on Newsmax during prime-time on April 6, bringing Somaliland’s case directly to a large American audience.

During the segment, Aden highlighted Somaliland’s stability, its 1991 restoration of independence, and its contrast with instability in Somalia… messaging that is increasingly resonating with U.S. viewers.

The interview is part of a broader trend: Somaliland is becoming a growing topic in American political discourse, with some commentators and voices now urging Washington to reconsider its long-standing position and move toward recognition.

The push reflects a widening effort by Somaliland officials to expand diplomatic influence in the U.S., as momentum appears to build beyond traditional policy circles and into mainstream media.

BREAKING: Somaliland has offered the U.S. exclusive access to its minerals and the chance to build American military bases.

Somaliland sits next to one of the world’s most critical trade chokepoints, where around 10%-12% of global trade and major oil shipments pass.

🧵 Somaliland & Ethiopia Near Signing Trade/Transit Deal

President Irro announced final-stage talks on an agreement to boost economic cooperation & give landlocked Ethiopia access to Somaliland's ports (including Berbera).

Remarks reported by Ethiopian newspaper "The Reporter" during an interview with CNN Arabic.

Follows 2024 MoU granting 50-year port access, with Ethiopia considering recognition of Somaliland – a move opposed by Somalia. Separate Turkey-brokered 2025 deal exists between Ethiopia & Somalia.

Somaliland has seen recent progress like an Ethiopian bank branch & de facto Israeli recognition.
Deal could stabilize regional trade.
