The United Nations Security Council will convene an emergency session this Monday to address the political and legal ramifications of the Zionist entity’s recognition of what is referred to as “Somaliland.” The session was called at the urgent request of the Federal Government of Somalia, which has condemned the move as a deliberate assault on its sovereignty and territorial integrity.
The meeting, to be held at UN headquarters in New York, is anticipated to draw significant international attention. Several council members are expected to voice strong criticism of the Zionist decision, viewing it as a unilateral act that threatens peace and security in the Horn of Africa and the Red Sea region. Moreover, it is feared that this action could set a dangerous precedent in international law.
These developments follow widespread condemnation from Arab, Islamic, and international bodies. The Arab League’s General Secretariat announced an emergency meeting of the League Council at the level of permanent representatives this Sunday. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss the latest developments related to the Zionist declaration and to reaffirm the rejection of any unilateral measures or decisions that affect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Federal Republic of Somalia.
The Federal Government of Somalia reiterated its unwavering commitment to the country’s sovereignty and national unity this past Friday. It categorically rejected the Zionist entity’s recognition of “Somaliland” as an independent state, emphasizing that the region is an integral part of its sovereign territory. Mogadishu also affirmed its steadfast support for the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people and its rejection of any attempts to draw Somalia into proxy conflicts or to transfer regional and international disputes to its territory.
The self-proclaimed “Republic of Somaliland” is located in northwestern Somalia, covering an area of approximately 175,000 square kilometers. It unilaterally declared its secession in 1991 but has not received official recognition from the international community to date. DZWatch will continue to monitor this developing situation and provide updates as they become available. This is a developing story.
