To honor Somaliland’s Independence Day, I’m glad to have met H.E. President Abdirahman Mohamed Abdullahi (Irro), a leader who listens to his people. Wishing Somaliland continued peace, progress, and prosperity, and celebrating the strong ties between Somaliland and the UAE.
On 26 June, People of Somaliland proudly commemorate the day the Republic of Somaliland gained independence in 1960.
Today, the Republic of Somaliland reaffirms its enduring statehood, democratic path and rightful place among free nations.
