To the Somaliland Government and the Foreign Minister,

It is critical for Somaliland to issue a clear and strong response to the recent remarks by Somalia’s foreign minister regarding Ethiopia’s embassy in Somaliland. As a sovereign nation, Somaliland must assert its independence and reject any interference in its diplomatic affairs.

The Somaliland foreign minister should take immediate action and release a clear statement by tomorrow to emphasize our position. This statement should highlight Somaliland’s autonomy and send a strong message both regionally and internationally that any attempts to undermine our sovereignty will not be accepted.

Prompt action will demonstrate Somaliland’s commitment to protecting its sovereignty and ensuring that its rights as an independent state are respected.
