When the Somali regime, led by Siad Barre, committed a massacre against the people of Somaliland, the world was silent. But Israel was not silent.
In 1990, Israel’s then-ambassador to the UN, Yohanan Bein, sent a letter to the UN Security Council warning about the massacre committed by Somalia in the city of Hargeisa. Even when it was inconvenient and diplomatically costly, Israel chose what was right.
That is what moral leadership looks like.
@dannydanon The Republic of Somaliland thanks for the State of Israel for the re-recognition of the Republic of Somaliland. We share democratic values, fight against the Islamic terrorism, and the pirates that caused insecurity in the region!
I highly recommend the president of the Republic of Somaliland @Abdirahmanirro to consider my letter, which encourages to establish ties with the Republic of Costa Rica!
After more than three decades of peaceful self-governance, constitutional order, and democratic practice, Somaliland has received its first formal international recognition as a sovereign and independent state.
This development affirms an objective reality that has long existed. Somaliland meets the legal, political, and institutional criteria of statehood under international law.
— H.E. President @AbdirahmanIrro
I want to express my appreciation to the parliament members, from the United Kingdom, Sweden and France who stood behind Somaliland-Ethiopia strategic agreement and supported Somalilands efforts for recognition.
I would also like to extend an appreciation to our allies hailing from the US Congress, esteemed academic institutions, policy advisors, and former ambassadors all from the United States, who tirelessly advocated for our cause. The people of Somaliland will perpetually be grateful to you all.
@ethiotelecom@samsingh25488 What is the APN for iPhone when hotspot-ing? Do customers have to come to your branches, even if there is none in their areas?
@SihaamMumin My goodness. I don’t even know what to say, but layaabay at the way they are comfortably seated to discuss about something that there others who have better ideas than them.
It is good that ppl are talking about the #IsaaqGenocide. My aunt is still missing. Most of the hundreds of thousands of ppl that were massacred between 1988 and 1991 were shot dead by the Bare soldiers and buried in mass graves. Mass graves are discovered everyday in Somaliland.
A very beautiful morning after what happened last night @HargeysaCC by @halkar_academy what a great team and a great play “waa rafaad aduunyadu ruuxba xaal ku noolyahay”
