Somaliland should support the struggle of the Afar people in Djibouti to remove dictator Gele. Gele is playing a politics of deception to undermine Somaliland's case, so we have the legitimacy to extend a hand to the Afar people who are also victims of his iron-fisted rule
Djibouti has been a foe of Somaliland since its independence. Djibouti unmasked its deceptive intentions, which it had used for decades, in a time of desperation. President Behi's courageous decision to formalize a pact with Ethiopia is commendable.

- House of Lords passes the first reading of the Somaliland recognition bill
- All-Party Parliamentary Groups in the UK stands for Somaliland.
- UK's strategic interest lies in the Red Sea, not Indian Ocean.
The UK and Somalia signed a strategic partnership last November to jointly pursue long-term objectives. The UK has emphasized its support for Somalia's sovereignty, unity, and territorial integrity, which stands in contrast to the MoU singed between Ethiopia and the Somaliland
