Somalilandpress- In wake of increasing a political nature of Somaliland, different directions and People are failed to differentiate. In fact, the London Summit was not the first meeting which the international community sponsored in order to hit upon a solution for Somalia’s catastrophe, but there were separate conferences which the international community met in different locations around the world for the last couple of years.
Since the American policy towards Somalia and Somaliland has been changed, the world provided the Somaliland government a chance to participate, come and be part of a comprehensive solution of Somalia’s emergency issue. Different delegations from Somaliland were provided invitations from world’s capitals. The delegation from the Somaliland House of Representative traveled to Ireland, Djibouti, and EU headquarters.
These assemblies were a political gathering, and the delegation was not only the member of the leading party Kulmiye , but they were integrated with all the politic parts of Somaliland. The head of the delegation was UCID elected house leader H.E Abdirahman “Ciro”.
The Minister of foreign affairs was encouraging these conventions. He went to the OAU Conference which took place at Ethiopian capital. During the conference the Minster discussed with delegates from African countries, EU, America, and international organizations about Somaliland’s maturity in the region. The minister successfully passed on the strong message from people of Somaliland. When the meeting was completed, the press release was delivered to the media.
The Unite nation head of political office Somalia mentioned that Somaliland would be a good example for the rest of Somalia and the UN would hold a political summit in the near future about the tragedy of Somalia which would take place in the capital of Kenya Nairobi . Immediately the Somaliland Foreign Minister, H.E. Mohamed A. Omer, reacted to the comments from UN POS and told Ezega.com in an exclusive statement that Somaliland was interested in seeing peace and stability in Somalia but was not ready for dialogue and cooperation with the Transitional Federal Government in Mogadishu.
Moreover, it was the first time Somaliland Foreign Minister was entitled to be part of international discussions. The minister as he stated in his paper in London conference, he clearly noted the Somaliland‘s stand and concern their neighbor counter Somalia which was not stable for the last twenty years. When it comes to international law, this kind of international gathering, Somalia used to represent Somaliland and Foreign Minister of TFG was the only person who would sit on Somali chairs.
As they all agree the governments of Somalia from Ali Mahdi, Abdiqasim, and Abdilahi Yusuf to Sharif , they all were united one message: Somaliland would never allow to be part of the international meetings whether those assemblies were a political or economical summit. They used to call Somaliland Northern Dir Clan as Afrol news wrote that A “new” Somali ethnic group has been introduced at the ongoing Somali peace conference in Kenya; the “Northern Dir clan”. Not only that, but Abdilahi Yusuf’s government’s OAU office rejected and was angered when the former Somaliland Minster tried to take a part the OAU conference and Somali delegate , because of this, left the meeting .
Although there are problems in eastern regions of Somaliland and Somaliland shares a border with non existing Somalia, yet Somaliland progress and attractions of ministers and diplomatists from the world and UN are increasing day after day. The UN has reduced the security level of Somaliland to level three. The high level delegations are welcomed to Somaliland’s capital, Hargiesa, and It was the first time high level UK delegations UK and Norway promised huge and enormous support for Somaliland’s cost.
In reality, It is Somaliland’s interest to go to the international conference, open the door, and play a major role in the world’s politics in order to reach out the world and it’s last destination: Acknowledgment and recognized state.
