Hargeysa (Somaliland Globe) The two opposition parties, UCUD and Kulmiye, have agreed to participate in talks with President Rayale of Somaliland to resolve the current political stand off. The meeting and talks were facilitated by a committee of activist citizens. The house of elders of Somaliland known as Guurti has extended the current administrations term of office by six months. The government's term officially came to an end in April 6th and the opposition parties have declared that they do not recognize Mr Rayale as President. The talks intend to address this issue.
It is not know how the talks will fare given the different and opposing views of the different parties. Mr Rayale has insisted that the extension was legitimate and constitutional and the opposition parties have decried the illegitimacy of the current administrations and have held country wide demonstrations.
