President @realDonaldTrump, this week you asked whether anyone knows what Somaliland is. As you meet PM @netanyahu tomorrow, Somaliland is worth discussion . It’s stable, strategically located on the Red Sea, and offers security and economic value for U.S. interests.
This is a historic moment as we warmly welcome @netanyahu the Prime Minister of the State of Israel’s recognition of the Republic of Somaliland and affirm Somaliland’s readiness to join the Abraham Accords. This step marks the beginning of a strategic partnership that advances mutual interests, strengthens regional peace and security, and delivers shared benefits to all stakeholders, without prejudice to any party.
After decades of peace, self-governance, and democratic resolve, Somaliland’s voice is finally heard. This is more than recognition; it’s affirmation of resilience, dignity, and the right to self-determination.
History remembers this day.
Prayers for the families affected by the shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, and for the full recovery of those injured. Stay strong, Minneapolis.
More from @SenTedCruz on Somaliland 📢📢📢: “I’m optimistic. I think there is a real chance that the President could recognize Somaliland. As I said, they’ve been an ally to us”

Thank you @SenTedCruz for your endorsement of U.S. recognition of our Somaliland, and your outreach on the behalf of our noble cause to @realDonaldTrump.
Tomorrow morning, Somaliland will wake up to learn that you have stood up to be counted as our ally. It will not be forgotten. Somaliland and the U.S. have so much to gain from a closer partnership, and we are privileged to have such friends in Congress at this critical time.
Thank you Senator @tedcruz for championing Somaliland’s recognition and urging President Trump to act. This is history in the making Somaliland’s voice will be heard!
This is a huge win for Somaliland 👏🏽 This would not have been possible without the efforts of one of my all-time favorite Somaliland diplomats, @baruud 🫡 As always we are so proud of you! Somaliland is so proud of you!
