NOVEMBER 11 | REMEMBRANCE DAY🌺
Today, the Republic of Somaliland honours all those who served and sacrificed their lives in the cause of freedom.
We remember our shared history, when Somalilanders stood side by side with British and Commonwealth forces, united by duty, courage and a common cause.
Here in Hargeisa, the War Cemetery remains preserved, respected and carefully maintained, a living reminder of that shared history and the sacrifices made by generations before us.
Lest We Forget. 🌺

LIVE: 'Time to Recognise': Will Trump Break US Policy on Somaliland and Somalia?

UK recognition of Somaliland is MASSIVELY important to the UK, especially given its strategic location and the fact we are a historically linked partner. Recognition will unlock investment and security cooperation, and will give Britain a clearer strategic foothold in a critical region - here’s why ⬇️
Somaliland sits on the Gulf of Aden near the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, one of the world’s busiest shipping routes. A stable, pro-Western partner there would strengthen UK maritime security, counter-piracy efforts, and trade access via the modernised Berbera port - which is especially valuable amid Houthi threats and growing Chinese influence in nearby Djibouti.
Somaliland was the British Somaliland Protectorate from 1884 until it gained independence in 1960 as the State of Somaliland. Five days later it voluntarily joined the former Italian Somalia to form the Somali Republic, though the legal requirements for this union were never completed and remain contested. The union soon fell apart and Somaliland once again stood independently - IMPORTANT to recognise, they never signed any pact to give up their sovereignty - the UN are the ones that refuse to recognise that!
Since 1991 Somaliland fully restored its independence within its former colonial borders and has since maintained stability and democratic institutions - something Somalia has never achieved - they cannot be compared and they actively oppose each other.

A US Embassy map showing Somaliland separately from Somalia has raised questions about Washington’s stance on the territory’s disputed independence. Is it just a freedom rating or a wider diplomatic signal?

What preempt the State Department from fully recognizing #Somaliland is the weight of ONE TRILLION .2 $ promise of investment by Qatar in the United States.
I support President @realDonaldTrump that Somaliland and Somalia are two different countries. Like Slovakia and Slovenia, just a similar name.
We expect @SecRubio to issue the recognition of Somaliland soon...

PRESS STATEMENT
Somaliland Ports Authority Rejects False Claim About Berbera Port Staff Training in Djibouti
The Somaliland Ports Authority strongly condemns and categorically rejects the claim published by the Djibouti Ports & Free Zones Authority (@DPFZA) on its official X account that 11 senior staff from Berbera Port received six months of engineering and operational training in Djibouti.
The @PortsSomaliland Authority confirms that no Berbera Port staff participated in the training programme described in the post. The claim is false and misleading and must be corrected.
The Authority also rejects the inclusion of Berbera Port within the post’s account of cooperation between Djibouti and Somalia. Berbera Port is located in the Republic of #Somaliland and operates under Somaliland’s jurisdiction. It must not be represented as part of Somalia’s port institutions or cooperation arrangements.
We call on DPFZA to withdraw the inaccurate claim concerning Berbera Port and issue a public correction through the same official channel.
Public institutions have a responsibility to ensure that their communications are accurate. Publishing unsupported claims about another port authority’s personnel and activities undermines the trust necessary for constructive regional cooperation.
The Somaliland Ports Authority remains committed to professional engagement, mutual respect and cooperation grounded in accurate information and respect for Somaliland’s institutions.

Somaliland is not Somalia. That’s a fact. I have no aversion to Somalia but I am for Somaliland and its independent sovereignty.

We are a country. Thank you, President Trump, Senator Ted Cruz, and the American people! 🇺🇸
President Trump has rightly said that Somaliland is "a totally different country" than Somalia. That is exactly the correct policy. It is long past time for the U.S. to recognize Somaliland.
Today I questioned the nominee to be Ambassador to Somalia to confirm that he agrees President Trump's position. He declined to do so.
I told him that whether he is confirmed or not will depend on whether the State Department follows the President's guidance.

Thank you @SenTedCruz for your simple but powerful statement: “Somaliland is not Somalia.”
✅ Self-governed since 1991
✅ Multiple democratic elections
✅ Peaceful transfer of power
✅ Close ties with Taiwan
✅ China opposes Somaliland's independence
✅ Recognizes Israel
✅ Offers the U.S. favorable diplomatic, economic & security partnerships

People often ask me why I am so mentally, emotionally and physically invested in Somaliland.
The answer lies in a family, a legacy and a promise I intend to honour.
The Sood family’s relationship with Somaliland dates back to 1958. It is a relationship that began with the grandfather, was carried forward by his son, Virendra Kumar Sood, and now lives on through the third generation, Vikram Sood.
For decades, Virendra Kumar Sood believed in Somaliland, its people, its potential and its rightful aspirations. He worked tirelessly towards a dream he held close to his heart: that India would one day recognise Somaliland’s sovereignty and play a vital and integral role in its transformation.
In a poignant twist of destiny, he departed for his heavenly abode just hours before Israel recognised Somaliland as a sovereign nation. He had dedicated much of his life to a dream whose realisation he would not live to witness.
To me, Virendra Kumar Sood was a visionary. He saw a diamond in the rough when others saw little worth pursuing. He recognised Somaliland’s potential long before much of the world began paying attention.
His son, Vikram Sood, is family to me. And family is not merely about relationships; it is about standing by one another, honouring commitments and carrying forward the dreams of those who came before us.
Today, my involvement in Somaliland is not merely geopolitical, strategic or commercial. It is deeply personal.
I am standing beside Vikram to help fulfil his father’s lifelong dream of seeing Somaliland emerge as the nation he always believed it could become, with India playing a meaningful role in that journey.
Three generations of the Sood family have carried this relationship with Somaliland. I consider it both an honour and a responsibility to stand alongside the third generation in carrying that legacy forward.
That is why Somaliland matters so deeply to me.
For me, Somaliland is not merely a strategic interest. It is a promise to a family, a tribute to a visionary and a commitment to a people whose future he believed in long before the world took notice.

Grateful as always to Senator @tedcruz for his principled leadership and unwavering advocacy for Somaliland. As President Trump has affirmed, Somaliland is not Somalia, and Senator Cruz has consistently stood with the people of Somaliland.
Somaliland is a self-governing, democratic partner committed to regional security, counterterrorism and freedom of navigation. We stand ready to deepen our partnership with the United States in pursuit of peace, stability and shared prosperity in the Horn of Africa.

I sincerely thank Senator @tedcruz for his principled support and tireless efforts to strengthen Somaliland–US relations; US recognition of Somaliland would be a major strategic investment in American national security, strengthening stability in the Horn of Africa, securing vital Red Sea and Gulf of Aden shipping routes, and advancing shared interests in counterterrorism and regional security.
