Somaliland passed the most important and difficult phase on the way to reaching its founding principles of Peace, Stability, Democracy and Nation building to get full recognition.
We have convinced and shown practically to the UN, AU, EU, IGAD And other International Community that we are a nation and that we have taken our fate in our own hands and we have framed and established a state on which we can live and build an everlasting future for our beloved people.
For the past 14 years the international Community have adamantly Refused to accept our claims and our assertions. For that long period, The people of Somaliland witnessed an enormous amount of suffering And economic hardships because of lack of International Recognition And the Ban of our livestock which is the backbone of our economy by Saudi Arabia and other Gulf States. For that long period our people Were trapped in the worst prison of poverty. Many died and many are Sick.
Former South African President Hon. Nelson Mandela said: ‘In this new century, millions of people in the world’s poorest countries remain imprisoned, enslaved and in chains. They are trapped in the prison of poverty. It is time to set them free’. He was right, Somaliland is one of those poor countries who have not received any development programmers and any loans because of lack of International Recognition. It is the right time to set Somaliland free and recognize it as an independent state to get access to international development programmers.
Chancellor Gordon Brown said, ‘Now as never before, we have within our Grasp the means to eliminate the abject poverty once and for all’. Honorable Chancellor if your Government recognizes Somaliland, we Can eliminated the abject poverty from our people once and for all because our country is rich.
The UN Secretary General Mr. Kofi Annan said, poverty denies children their dignity, endangers their lives and limited their potential. Conflicts and violence Rob them of a secure family life, betray their trust and hope. With the childhood Of so many under threat, our collective future is compromised.’ Yes, Somaliland with its voice, with its votes, with its peace, democracy and stability, with its hard Work, they can really make poverty history. Somaliland believes a better world Is possible if the International Community have the will to recognize Somaliland. If the present trends and economic Ban continue it will be inhuman. The positive
Role to contribute to a better life of Somaliland is full recognition.
It is very shameful and regretful that the International Community deliberately
Isolated and neglected the people of Somaliland and bribed the warlords. Why
They neglect the wishes and the rights of the people of Somaliland for that long
Period.
Somaliland is a challenge rather than a problem for the African Union. It should Look at the reality on the ground. Somaliland is not a breakaway, it just ended a union it had entered voluntarily in 1960 as an independent state and there was No act of union. Somaliland has not violated the colonial boundaries. We are Occupying no more than the British protectorate territory once occupied by the
British Government.
If AU is applying the principal of Somali Unity without looking the facts on the Ground, it is planting the seeds of more deadly and an ending civil-war in the Whole region particularly Horn Of Africa.
Our government, our opposition parties, our people inside and outside, we All stand united for the full recognition of state.
SOMALILAND STANDS UNITED FOR FULL RECOGNITION
