“Israel’s statement claiming that it has recognized the independence of the Somaliland region constitutes yet another example of the Netanyahu government’s unlawful actions aimed at creating instability at the regional and global levels.
This move by Israel, which continues its expansionist policies and spares no effort to prevent the recognition of the State of Palestine, amounts to a clear interference in Somalia’s internal affairs.
Decisions regarding the future of the Federal Republic of Somalia and the Somaliland region must be taken in a manner that reflects the will of all Somalis.
Türkiye, which attaches great importance to peace and security in the Horn of Africa and firmly supports Somalia’s sovereignty, unity, and territorial integrity, will continue to stand by the Somali people.”
