Somaliland has requested the international community to give the donation money separately, and not through the Somali government.
A letter shared by the Ministry of Planning of Somaliland with donor countries has stated the importance of establishing ways for the international community to deal specifically with Somaliland.
“Acknowledging the support given to my friends, we underline the importance and the need to work with Somaliland directly, through official channels in accordance with the international rules of aid,” the letter said.
It is stated in the letter that the aid needs to improve the lives of people, regardless of their political opinion, and at the same time, there are many countries that are not recognized and directly receive donations.
Finally, Somaliland thanked the donor countries for their support, and said that they hope to increase their cooperation.
