Somalia and Somaliland
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what discussions she has had with her Somali counterparts on efforts to build relations between leaders in Somalia and Somaliland.
Answered by Chris Elmore
The UK is one of Somalia's closest and longest standing partners and remains committed to supporting Somali authorities to build a safe, free, and secure country for all Somalis. The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) regularly engages with the Somali authorities, political parties and civil society, including those in Somaliland. We continue to advocate for dialogue between Hargeisa and Mogadishu.
