London:- The British Government has stated that Somaliland can attain its quest for international de-jure recognition by following a certain path.
According to the British Secretary of International Development, Andrew Mitchell, the British Foreign Office has given the government of Somaliland some advice on the path towards international de-jure recognition, and the matters that need to be resolved in order to attain this long sought goal.
Edward Leigh, a senior Conservative member of Parliament, asked the following question at debate on Thursday in parliament, " We have friendly and long ties to the people of Somaliland, and they have attained great development which has so far eluded Somalia, therefore, hasn't the time arrived for the de-jure recognition of Somaliland?"
Responding the British Secretary of International Development, Andrew Mitchell, stated that " Foreign Secretary Hague has previously stated that the need to resolve the border disputes between Somaliland and Puntland, however, the issue of Somaliland's international de-jure recognition must be addressed by Somaliland and Somalia, and the neighbouring countries in the region".
