Somaliland Congratulates Barbados on becoming World’s newest Republic

The Somaliland government has officially congratulated Barbados on becoming the world’s newest Republic. In a statement, Somaliland Government says it stands ready to support Barbados on all matters of mutual interest and global concern, and congratulates its first president, Dame Sandra Mason, for assuming the leadership responsibility.

Somaliland foreign affairs ministry believes that the liberty to determine one’s political status and fate is not only among the most important of international human rights in its own regard but lays the foundation for other cherished rights, such as those to freely pursue one’s economic, social and cultural development.

The statement also reads that Somaliland looks forward to a world where those legitimately seeking self-determination will enjoy the same precious achievement recently accomplished by the people of Barbados.

Somaliland underlines its commitment to continue to strive for complete sovereignty as a recognized nation and hopes that the people of Barbados will serve as an ardent ally in this quest.
