Somalia and Pakistan agree to boost bilateral relations

Somalia and Pakistan have agreed to cooperate on technology and defense following a meeting between Foreign Ministers of both countries in Islamabab, Pakistan.

During the meeting, both ministers discussed on a wide range of issues including science, technology, defense and diplomacy. Somalia foreign minister, Abdisaid Muse Ali and his Pakistani counterpart, Shah Mahmood Qureshi, sealed a Memorandum of Understanding for bilateral political consultations between the countries.


Somalia foreign minister was attending the OIC ministerial conference in Islamabad. In 1969, Pakistan and Somalia were among the founding members of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). Somalia’s relations with Pakistan remained strong in the following years and through the ensuing civil war period, when the Pakistani military contributed to a UN peacekeeping operation in southern Somalia.
