To negotiate, interlocutors must first open embassies in Somaliland, the foreign minister of that disputed territory said.
Replying to a question about taking in Gazans, a top official from the disputed African territory of Somaliland this week said its government is “open to discussing anything,” but only with governments that recognize its legitimacy.
The statement underlined how international horse-trading could facilitate U.S. President Donald Trump’s plan to have Gazans relocate away from the Strip.
Abdirahman Dahir Adam Bakal, the minister of foreign affairs and international cooperation of the Republic of Somaliland, made the statement to Israel’s Kan broadcaster in response to a question regarding a report about talks on relocating Gazans to Somaliland, a breakaway self-declared country with more than 6.2 million inhabitants that no U.N. member state or international organization officially recognizes.
