Mogadishu. Reports from Hargeisa, the capital of the self-declared Republic of Somaliland, 1500 km north of Mogadishu confirmed that a Turkish delegation visited the breakaway region.

 

Mr. Ahmed Mohamed Mohamoud Silanyo welcomed the delegation led by Mr. Hani Torun, the Turkish Ambassador to Somalia that consisted of six members, in his office on Friday.

 

“This is the second delegation from Turkey to visit (Somaliland) in a period of two weeks,” noted a statement signed by Mr. Abdullahi Mohamed Dahir Ukise, the Press Secretary of Somaliland’s president.

 

The statement added that earlier delegation was led by the Somali Programme Coordinator of Turkeys International Cooperation and Development Agency (TIKA), Mr. Abdulahad Kodkagi, and accompanied by representatives of the Turkish Prime Minister.

 

The Turkish Ambassador to Somalia, Mr Torun, said that Turkey and Somaliland enjoyed good relations and the purpose of his visit was to strengthen existing relations and that his government was aiming at assisting the region by means of technical and social assistances.. (NMG)
