Somaliland’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Abdirahman Dahir Adan, has expressed optimism that Somaliland may finally gain international recognition this year. Currently on an official visit to the United States, the Minister urged both the Somaliland diaspora and citizens at home to unite in pursuit of this long-sought goal. “I believe this is the year recognition will be achieved,” Minister Abdirahman stated. “We must come together, support one another, and work in unison—uniting both our hearts and minds—to make it a reality.” He emphasized that the sense of nationalism within Somaliland continues to grow stronger each year, and that the people remain steadfast in their commitment to achieving full independence. Over the past week, Minister Abdirahman met with several U.S. lawmakers who support Somaliland’s cause. He highlighted the potential for mutual interests between Somaliland and the United States, noting that cooperation could benefit both sides. Somaliland has garnered increasing support from members of both the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. A bill recognizing Somaliland has already been introduced in both chambers of Congress.

President of Somaliland Adminstration Abdirahman Abdullahi (left) and the President of Djibouti, Ismail O. Guelleh. Hargeisa (PP News Desk) — The President of the Somaliland administration, Abdirahman Mohamed Abdullahi, currently visiting Djibouti, was received by President Ismail Omar Guelleh. The visit signifies a decisive shift from the stance of Abdullahi’s successor, President Muse Bihi Abdi, who previously regarded Djibouti as “an enemy state”. Relations between Hargeisa and Djibouti deteriorated after President Bihi signed a controversial maritime Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which sought to lease a coastal district to Ethiopia for a naval base. The agreement was widely condemned for violating Somali sovereignty. Djibouti aligned with the Federal Government of Somalia in rejecting the MoU, describing it as a breach of the African Union Charter. President Abdullahi’s visit reflects his administration’s new policy direction, fulfilling campaign pledges to restore regional ties and pursue peaceful resolutions. He has revoked the maritime MoU and advocated dialogue to address the conflict in Sool, Togdheer, and Sanaag with the federal member state, SSC-Khatumo (SSCK) administration based in Laascaanood. “President Abdullahi reversed the self-defeating policies of his predecessor, who falsely claimed Al-Shabaab operated from Laascaanood. The current government has disbanded clan militias mobilised under Bihi following the defeat of Somaliland forces at Gojacadde in August 2023,” noted an analyst from a Hargeisa-based think tank. President Guelleh is reportedly facilitating efforts to resume dialogue between the Federal Government of Somalia and the Somaliland administration, a secessionist entity. “There are hurdles to restarting talks, chief among them the classification of secession as a national security threat by Somalia,” the analyst added. Ethiopia, which had planned to construct a merchant port at Lughaya to reduce dependence on Djibouti’s ports, has since withdrawn from the maritime MoU. The decision aligns with its commitments as a member of the African Union and the Ankara Agreement signed in December 2024 by Somali President Dr Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed. © Puntland Post, 2025 The post Somaliland Administration Mends Ties with Djibouti in Policy Reversal appeared first on Puntland Post.

Saida Qacle: “It is odd to say that the Puntland Ministry of Interior is working on a Puntland citizenship law. Does the government not pay attention to what it is saying?” Garowe (PP Commentary) — At last, the Puntland State Government is taking steps to address anomalies in its constitution. At a conference titled Reviewing Regional and District Administrative Laws, participants candidly examined constitutional articles that contradict the federal system of Somalia. Saida Qacle, an adviser to the President of Puntland, remarked that there is no such thing as “Puntland citizenship.” “Eligibility to vote in Puntland is based on residency status [of the Somali citizens]. Puntland is a Federal Member State. It is odd to say that the Puntland Ministry of Interior is working on a Puntland citizenship law. Does the government not pay attention to what it is saying?” said Saida. Puntland’s Minister of Interior, Abdi Farah Said (Juha), is commendable for initiating a discussion on constitutional contradictions. The Puntland Constitution, which was amended and ratified in 2012, includes Article 39, stating: “Any person who is a Puntlander by birth or who acquired the status of Puntlander in accordance with the law shall be recognised as a citizen of Puntland.” Mohamed Farole: ”We cannot rectify the mistakes of the Federal Government of Somalia if we don’t rectify our own mistakes.” Article 39 appears to propose a parallel form of citizenship to that of the Somali citizenship. It remains unclear whether the signatories of the 1998 Charter were given the opportunity to review the draft constitution, particularly the articles relating to citizenship. “We cannot rectify the mistakes of the Federal Government of Somalia if we don’t rectify our own mistakes,” said Mohamed Abdirahman Farole, Puntland Minister for Environment and Climate Change. Puntland’s Minister of Interior, Abdi Farah Said (Juha), deserves credit for initiating a discussion on constitutional inconsistencies. The amended Puntland Constitution also mentions the sovereignty or nationhood of Puntland in two conflicting translations. Notably, the Puntland State Government has yet to publish an official, certified translation of its amended constitution. “Since this constitution sets out the general structure of the Puntland Government, it will also impact other people in the Federal Republic of Somalia,” reads the introduction, co-authored by Abdirahman Farole, President of Puntland (2009–2014).Despite this, the Puntland Constitution does not apply to other Federal Member States. In practice, Puntland’s electoral law adheres to Somali citizenship law. Several councillors who won seats in the 2023 local government elections hail from southern Somalia. It now falls to President Said Abdullahi Deni to launch a constitutional reform process to amend provisions that inadvertently portray Puntland as a secessionist entity within Somalia. The constitution remains a major source of tension between Puntland and the Federal Government of Somalia. It was initially drafted at a time when Somalia lacked a functioning transitional government, and it was later amended when Somalia was transitioning from a transitional federal government to a permanent government in 2012. Puntland cannot make meaningful institutional or governance progress if its constitution fails to acknowledge the sovereignty of the Federal Republic of Somalia. The onus is now on President Said Abdullahi Deni to initiate a constitutional reform process to amend clauses that inadvertently suggest Puntland is a secessionist entity within Somalia. © Puntland Post, 2025 The post Calls Grow for Puntland to Align Its Constitution with Federal Somalia appeared first on Puntland Post.

Mareykanka ayaa sheegay in Suudaan adeegsatay hub kiimiko ah waxuuna ku dhawaaqay cunaqabatayn cusub. Wasaaradda Arrimaha Dibadda ee Mareykanka ayaa sheegtay in dowladda Suudaan adeegsatay hub kiimiko ah sanadkii hore intii uu socday dagaalka sokeeye ee ka dhanka ah Ciidanka Gurmadka Degdegga ah (RSF). Dhoofinta alaabaha Maraykanka ee Suudaan ayaa la xadidi doonaa iyo sidoo kale amaahda maaliyadeed laga bilaabo 6-da Juun, sida lagu sheegay bayaan uu akhriyay af hayeenka wasaaradda Tammy Bruce. Milateriga Suudaan iyo kooxda dagaalka kula jirta ee RSF ayaa labaduba waxaa horay loogu eedeeyay dambiyo dagaal intii ay socdeen iskahorimaadyada u dhaxeeya. BBC-da ayaa la xiriiray Suudaan si ay jawaab uga bixiso tallabadan ugu dambeeysay ee Mareykanka. Saraakiisha Suudaan ayaa sheegay in aysan wali war ka haynin. In ka badan 150,000 oo qof ayaa lagu dilay intii uu socday iskahorimaadka, kaasoo billowday laba sano ka hor markii ciidamada Sudan iyo RSF ay billaabeen loolan adag oo ay ku doonayaan inay xukunka ku qabsadaan. Bilihii la soo dhaafay, militariga Suudaan ayaa dib u qabsaday caasimadda Khartoum, balse dagaallo ayaa ka socda meelo kale. Wax tafaasiil ah lagama bixin hubka kiimikada ah ee uu Maraykanku sheegay in uu helay, laakiin warsidaha New York Times ayaa soo wariyay bishii Janaayo in Sudan ay isticmaashay gaaska chlorine laba jeer, taas oo keenta waxyeelo kala duwan oo xanuun iyo dhaawac leh, isla markaana keeni karta dhimasho. “Maraykanku waxa uu ugu baaqayaa dawladda Suudaan in ay joojiso dhammaan isticmaalka hubka kiimikada ah oo ay ilaaliso waajibaadka ka saaran Axdiga Hubka Kimikada,” ayaa lagu yidhi bayaanka, iyada oo tixraacaysa heshiiska hubka Kiimikada ah ee ay saxiixayaashu ku heshiiyeen in ay burburiyaan kaydadka hubka. Ku dhowaad waddan kasta oo adduunka ah – oo ay ku jirto Suudaan – ayaa ogolaaday Axdiga Hubka Kiimikada, marka laga reebo Masar, Kuuriyada Waqooyi iyo Koonfurta Suudaan sida uu qabo Ururka Xakamaynta Hubka. Israa’iil way saxiixday heshiiska laakiin ma aysan ansixin saxiixeeda, taasoo la micno ah inaysan si sharci ah u xaqiijin ku lug lahaanshaha heshiiska, ururka xakamaynta hubka ayaa sheegay sidaas. “Maraykanku waxa uu si buuxda uga go’an in uu la xisaabtamo kuwa mas’uulka ka ah ka qayb qaadashada fidinta hubka kiimikada,” ayuu Bruce ku daray. Ma ahan markii ugu horeysay oo Mareykanka uu cunaqabateyn kusoo rogo dalka Sudan. Bishii Jannaayo, waxaa la soo saaray mid ka dhan ah hoggaamiyeyaasha labada dhinac ee colaaddu dhexmartay. Hoggaamiyaha militariga Suudaan Abdel Fattah al-Burhan ayaa lagu eedeeyay “in uu khalkhal geliyey Suudaan oo uu wiiqay hadafkii laga lahaa isbedel dimuqraadi ah” oo uu Mareykanku ku eedeeyay wasaaradda arrimaha dibadda ee dalkaas oo ku tilmaantay “wax lala yaabo oo dhibaato ah”. Xigashada Sawirka,Getty Images Qoraalka sawirka,Cunaqabateynta cusub ayaa saameyn yar ku yeelan doonta dalka natiijada tallaabooyinkan hore, sida ay sheegtay wakaaladda wararka ee AFP. Dhanka kale, hoggaamiyaha Ciidanka Taageerada Degdegga ah (RSF), Maxamed Xamdaan Dagalo, oo sidoo kale loo yaqaan Hemedti, ayaa lagu eedeeyay inuu dalka ka gaystay xasuuq, sida uu sheegay xoghayihii hore ee arrimaha dibadda Mareykanka, Antony Blinken. Xisbiyada ayaa labadii sano ee la soo dhaafay u halgamayay sidii ay xukunka u qabsan lahaayeen, waxaana ku barakacay ku dhawaad 12 milyan oo qof, halka 25 milyan ay u baahan yihiin gargaar cunto, taas oo laba jibaar ka badan shacabka London. Cunaqabateynta cusub ayaa saameyn yar ku yeelan doonta dalka natiijada tallaabooyinkan hore, sida ay sheegtay wakaaladda wararka ee AFP. Tallaabadan u dambeysay ee Mareykanka ayaa sidoo kale dhalisay xiisad ka dhalatay ku lug lahaanshaha Imaaraadka Carabta ee khilaafka. Imaaraatka Carabta iyo Suudaan ayaa xiriirkooda diblumaasiyadeed lahaa ilaa horraantii bishan markaasoo dowladda Suudaan ay ku eedeysay dowladda Imaaraadka inay hub siiso RSF, eedeymahaas oo Imaaraadku beeniyey. Ka dib soo dhawayntii diiranayd ee madaxweynaha Maraykanka Donald Trump uu ku qaabilay dalka Khaliijka todobaadkii hore, xisbiga Dimuqraadiga ee Congress-ka ayaa doonayey in ay hor istaagaan hubka uu Maraykanku ka iibinayo Imaaraadka qayb ahaan sababo la xidhiidha ku lug lahaanshaha khilaafka. Ilo dublamaasiyadeed oo Suudaani ah ayaa wakaaladda wararka ee Reuters u sheegay in Maraykanku uu cunaqabatayntan cusub ku soo rogay “si looga jeediyo ololihii dhawaa ee Congress-ka ee ka dhanka ahaa Imaaraadka”. Horaantii bishaan, maxkamad sare oo Qaramada Midoobay ah ayaa diiday dalabka Suudaan ee ahaa in Imaaraadka ay ku dacweyso xasuuq. Bbcsomali Qaran News

As President of Puntland State (1998–2004) and later of the Federal Republic of Somalia (2004–2008), President Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed never wielded unchecked authority over the legislature. Mogadishu (PP Editorial) —Twenty years ago, Somalia was experimenting with its first federal government, then based in Jowhar. That the federal system delivered tangible institution-building results is indisputable. Federal Member States have been formed, Somalia now has a bicameral legislature, and three presidential elections were held in Somalia in 2012, 2017 and 2022. The late President Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed left a governance legacy remembered for a parliament riven by dissent, which eventually split into two groups following the emergence of the Union of Islamic Courts. Ironically, it was the very warlords involved in forming the first federal government who later opposed the new federal dispensation. It was only when the warlords, operating under the infamous Counterterrorism Alliance in 2006, clashed with the Union of Islamic Courts that the federal government of Somalia realised a foreign country was providing funding to a consortium of warlords in Mogadishu. President Yusuf subscribed to the view that a balance of political power could be maintained between the federal government and Puntland State, then the only functioning sub-national autonomous administration. His theories might have been revisited after the formation of Federal Member States, many of which greatly benefited from the federal system. Governance under federalism has been facing a significant setback since 2009 when the Alliance for the Re-liberation of Somalia (ARS) agreed to peace talks in Djibouti, resulting in President Ahmed’s resignation in December 2008. The ARS, formed in Eritrea in 2007, shaped the new 2009 parliament and secured the privilege to select 50% of MPs for the expanded Somali parliament. Since then, political power in Somalia has shifted toward a new generation of Mogadishu-based political elites: Islah and Aala Sheikh. In 2006, the Union of Islamic Courts outlawed the Islah wing, which had played a major role in reviving the education system in Mogadishu and surrounding regions. However, Islah, under a new grouping, managed to reassert its political influence in 2012 when Hassan Sheikh Mohamud was elected president. The Aala Sheikh clique, led by former Somali President Sharif Sheikh Ahmed, lacks the professional and clan-based grassroots networks to form broad alliances across Somalia. In one of his book launch events, former Somali Prime Minister Abdiweli Mohamed Ali revealed that President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, then relatively unknown in political circles, “came to me in 2012 and asked me to withdraw my candidacy in support of his.” Dr Ali expressed astonishment at the bold request, which highlighted the significant political leverage of the Islah network, now rebranded as Damul Jadiid. Its trial-and-error approach to politics bears fruit, provided it is not overstretched. This is where the legacy of President Ahmed becomes instructive for resolving Somalia’s major political challenges. The federal system has evolved but remains riddled with contradictions. Who can prevent the bicameral legislature from being captured by the executive branch? If Federal Member States are undermined by centralism, evidenced by the executive’s control over sub-national parliaments, it will be difficult to challenge the Federal Government’s alleged power grabs. It is worth noting that the bicameral legislature, whose members were selected by the Federal Member States, has amended several articles of the federal constitution. As President of Puntland State (1998–2004) and later of the Federal Republic of Somalia (2004–2008), President Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed never had unchecked power over the legislature. That is a legacy worth preserving, and learning from and at national and sub-national levels in Somalia. © Puntland Post, 2025 The post Somalia’s Federal System: Two Decades of Tangible Institution-Building appeared first on Puntland Post.
