The mutual recognition between #Somaliland and #Israel has popular support in Somaliland because it is seen as a step towards universal recognition that will ultimately lead to UN membership. It is fully supported by all political parties, including the opposition.
The debate around the embassy location is therefore not about the recognition itself. It is a healthy domestic conversation in a democracy about a foreign policy choice and how it may affect other states’ decisions to recognise Somaliland.
No matter which party comes to power, the recognition is irreversible because Somaliland does not break with its core national interests.
This is simply a clarification for foreigners who may be confused by the current conversation. It is particularly for Somalian politicians who may try to interpret the discussion wrongly.
