Honoured to speak at @ASILorg on Protecting Cultural Property in East Africa. For Somalia, cultural heritage protection is not just preservation: it is law, sovereignty, and international cooperation in action. Looking forward to contributing to this important regional dialogue. #InternationalLaw #Somalia #CulturalHeritage

This is a proud moment for Somalia. The swearing-in of Somalia’s Members of the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA) reflects our country’s growing engagement and strong commitment to regional integration, cooperation, and shared prosperity within the East African Community.

5th of March 2026 marked a constitutional turning point in Somalia’s modern political history. With the approval of final amendments by the Federal Parliament, Somalia moves beyond the provisional phase of its constitutional order.

Accompanied the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of the Federal Republic of Somalia, H.E. Abdisalam Ali, during his meeting with the United States Chargé d’Affaires, Justin Davis, in Mogadishu. The discussions focused on strengthening Somalia–United States diplomatic relations, advancing political dialogue, and enhancing cooperation in support of peace, stability, and institutional development. Somalia values its longstanding strategic partnership with the United States and continued engagement on shared priorities. @MOFASomalia @US2SOMALIA

"Great to see young Somalis interested in diplomacy @ACMogadishu. #Freedom250 is a time to share our story, celebrate American excellence, and the central role of diplomacy in our past, present, and future." - Stephen Weeks, Public Affairs Officer

RT @GoobjoogMedia: At the UN Security Council, Somalia aligns with the African Union in condemning the recent military escalation in the Mi…

I condemn today’s military escalation in the Middle East. The use of force by the United States & Israel against Iran, and the subsequent retaliation by Iran across the region, undermine international peace & security.   All Member States must respect their obligations under international law, including the Charter of the @UN. The Charter clearly prohibits “the threat of the use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.”   I call for an immediate cessation of hostilities & de-escalation. Failing to do so risks a wider regional conflict with grave consequences for civilians & regional stability. I strongly encourage all parties to return immediately to the negotiating table.   I reiterate that there is no viable alternative to the peaceful settlement of international disputes, in full accordance with international law, including the UN Charter. The Charter provides the foundation for the maintenance of international peace and security.

This is how the Somali passport could look if aligned with the East African Community e-Passport standards & it could be a step forward in EAC regional integration. #Somalia #EastAfricanCommunity #RegionalIntegration #AfricanIntegration #Diplomacy #SomaliPassport #AfricaRising

A defining moment for the Federal Republic of Somalia. Somalia now serves concurrently on the United Nations Security Council and the African Union Peace and Security Council — positioning our nation at the centre of both global and continental decision-making on peace and security. We extend our sincere appreciation to all African Union Member States for the confidence placed in Somalia’s candidacy. This endorsement reflects not only solidarity, but recognition of Somalia’s renewed credibility, steady institutional progress, and constructive diplomatic engagement. From preventive diplomacy to conflict resolution and post-conflict reconstruction, Somalia will engage with clarity, balance, and strategic purpose — advancing African-led solutions, safeguarding sovereignty, and strengthening multilateral cooperation. This dual membership is not symbolic. It is substantive. It reflects a nation that has moved from fragility to influence — and one that is prepared to act responsibly in shaping the peace and security agenda of our region and the wider international community. #Somalia #UNSC #AUPSC #StrategicDiplomacy

Somalia has returned to its rightful place among the nations of the world. For the first time in our history, we hold seats on both the United Nations Security Council and the African Union Peace and Security Council. This milestone is a testament to the resilience, determination, and unwavering spirit of the Somali people. Somalia will fulfill its role with honour, courage, and a relentless commitment to peace. Today, Somalia stands tall. In this historic return, we carry not only our own destiny but also the promise of a more just, secure, and united Africa and world. Somalia 🇸🇴 is back; and our journey toward greatness continues.

Somalia elected to the AU Peace & Security Council (2026–2028) today in Addis Ababa. A historic milestone that reflects Somalia’s return to its rightful place in Continental diplomacy. We thank all who supported our candidacy. @_AfricanUnion

Joint Statement on the illegal visit of the Israeli official to "Somaliland" Region of the Federal Republic of Somalia on 6 January 2026. 🔗➡t.me/MofaSomalia/69… #Somalia #Somali #Hargeisa

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of the Federal Republic of Somalia condemns in the strongest terms the unauthorized incursion by the Israeli Minister of Foreign Affairs into Hargeisa, an integral and inseparable part of the sovereign territory of the Federal Republic of Somalia. This action constitutes a serious violation of Somalia's sovereignty, territorial integrity, and political unity, and represents an unacceptable interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign Member State of the United Nations.

#Somalia has officially assumed the presidency of the #UNSC following a formal flag-raising ceremony held at #UN in #NewYork. The event marked Somalia’s leadership role within the Council and its diplomatic engagement and contribution to international peace and security. #Somali

🇸🇴 Somalia Assumes the Presidency of the UN Security Council At a moment where international peace and security face simultaneous and interlinked challenges, Somalia today assumes the Presidency of the United Nations Security Council. This role places Somalia at the center of agenda-setting, convening, and stewardship of the Council’s work, with responsibility for guiding deliberations on some of the most pressing threats to global stability. For Somalia, the presidency is both an institutional milestone and a practical opportunity to contribute to principled multilateralism, reinforce respect for the UN Charter, and advance dialogue-driven approaches to conflict prevention, peacebuilding, and international security.
