In 2000, the United Nations Human Rights Commission was told that the Republic of Somaliland needed assistance documenting mass graves and tracking down the Somalian officials responsible, who had dispersed around the world.
That request was ignored, cast aside, and buried.
In the past, the United Nations chastised Israel for hunting down Nazis and terrorists around the world. Yet when the Republic of Somaliland, newly emerged from a decade-long genocidal war with Somalia, requested help in the manner the UN itself says is the proper path to justice, that request was denied and brushed aside.
This is why the United Nations is a failed institution. It has veered from its mandate and is now run by some of the worst states on earth. To make matters worse, Somalia was made a member of the Human Rights Council a few years ago.
Thank you @HillelNeuer for being a voice for the voiceless and holding the UN accountable
🚨BREAKING NEWS
The Federal Republic of Somalia has held an emergency council meeting of ministers and offered to help Saudi Arabia with access its Mogadishu airport which is only 6,451 km from Sanaa
The United Nations refused to help demobilize the traumatized freedom fighters or demine the capital city of Somaliland as returning refugees faced a devastated homeland.
But the UN did have money for creating opposition groups and allowing them to pretend to represent the nation that just defeated a Marxist regime. Instead of providing unconditional aid everything was premised on accepting ren renewed subjugation from Mogadishu.
Once the United Nations failed at creating a uprising it moved to new resolution to send international troops to enforce ‘unity’
Today the United Nations and its political office @UNDPPA operate openly in Hargeisa
No accountability leads to further injustice and the crimes pile up.
Look carefully at the pic.
The sign behind them literally says SOMALIA
So what did they do?
They put the Somaliland flag right in front of it and took the picture.. Then they posted it to mislead the public and the people of Somaliland.
This is what Hargeisa project means.
It’s dishonest, manipulative, corrupt and fake.
Hargeisa project allows the EU @EUCAPSOM to come to the State of Somaliland, works with them and let EU benefits from Somaliland’s strategic location under the name of Somalia.
And when the EU wants to sign a proper security agreement? It goes to Djibouti.
EU says Djibouti is their best ally in the region, and it helped against pirates!! 😂😂
Somaliland is being used as a buffer zone, because of Hargeisa project that takes that role willingly.
They put the flag in front of the word SOMALIA, and posts it online to deceive and lie to Somalilanders…

What do u mean by democratization? Somaliland beats your own country in democracy. In Somaliland the smaller groups are over-represented in the parliament & guurti. This system was created for corruption but it will be dismantled. The people of Sool,Sanaag & Togdheer are awake.
Landers who keep dragging the Republic of Somaliland next to the corpse of the failed state of Somalia are not doing anyone any favors. That is not advocacy.
Somaliland has achieved remarkable successes in isolation, such as pioneering iris and retina scan technology for fair elections and becoming one of the first countries in the world to go fully cashless. There are nearly 200 countries in the world to compare yourselves with.
Dragging the Republic of Somaliland into every Somalian controversy is not advocacy. It is simply pathetic.
Have more confidence in yourselves. Because comments like the one below are exactly what you’re telling the world. 👇
The Guurti must be elected
How can dhulos & warsengeli have 21 seats?
This is based on the rigged elections of 1959, that produced 33 parliamentarians that gave USP undeserved power
Only fair & credible elections based on true census would work, everything else is a fiasco
Isaaqland is a Nation that can have 3-4 UN seats. This blackmail tactics was pushed during the Borame conference where the Statehood of Somaliland was dismissed. The Guurti & parliament members are based on the 33 parliamentarians of 1960 x 2.5. A HOAX!
They are erasing my identity
They see me as a commodity to uphold their corruption
Oh I abhor them, I shall never embrace them
What is wrong with them, I wonder are we from the same cloth
I am not dir, never dare lump me with you
We must go our separate ways
Dear God..
Fun fact: it gets even crazier 🤪
Siad Barre’s brother, Abdirahman Jama Barre (also known as Jama Barre), who served as the longest-serving foreign minister of Somalia, gained asylum in San Diego in the 1990s.
Today, Siad Barre’s nephew, Abadir Barre, runs an immigration law firm in manhattan that he claims has helped thousands of people gain legal status.
This same nephew filed a civil lawsuit against the Trump Administration in 2020.
Thirty five years of governance and not a single effort to apprehend or investigate the perpetrators of the Isaaq genocide.
One of the last living Rhodesian pilots is currently golfing by the Oceanside enjoying his retirement and golden years that he denied hundreds if not thousands of Somalilanders.

The daily newspaper of Somalia the UN trusteeship
June 27 1960
✅The ceremonies that marked the accession to independence
✅The enthusiasm of the people reached indescribable heights
✅Extremely warm welcome reserved for the Official Somalia Delegation
✅The signing of the agreements between England and Somaliland
✅The speech by the President of the Legislative Assembly ✅A message from the Queen of England
✅ Formal handover from British authorities.
✅ Recognition by Switzerland and other nations.
The first of the three enormous motorcades that traveled through the main streets of Hargeisa, bringing the Horn of Africa to the world stage, took place yesterday in Hargeisa, when Somaliland became independent.
From day one.
In 1961, the very first anniversary, Somaliland’s Independence Day on 26 June was not celebrated.
A British diplomatic dispatch from Hargeisa dated 8 July 1961 reported:
“𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗶𝘀𝗮 𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝗿𝘆, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 26𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗳 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲. 𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 1𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝘆. 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗺 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗼 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝘆.”
For the next 30 years, marking 26 June was treated as treason. Students were arrested and tortured simply for remembering their country’s birth.
Today, Somalilanders celebrate openly and proudly because millions paid with their lives to reclaim what was stolen.
Freedom was not given.
It was taken back in blood.
Best wishes to all Somalilanders celebrating independence day – a moment when the international community should reflect on the strong case to recognise Somaliland as an independent sovereign state.
Somalia NEVER in its existence has ever been independent. Not even for a single day
Imagine that
So why are they obsessed with an independent de jure sovereign nation that existed for millennia and their obsession with 26 June 1960
If you don’t believe me, ask any Somalian to show a bilateral treaty of Independence from Imperialism by any of its colonial masters;
Persian Empire
Kingdom of Zanzibar
Oman
Italy
GB
Italian East Africa
UN Trusteeship Council
Somaliland
UNOSOM
