The Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of Somalia, Abdisalan Abdi Ali, has affirmed that the Somali government is committed to strengthening maritime security along the country\u2019s coastlines, in order to protect vital international waterways.<\/p>\n

The Minister made these remarks at the 4th EU-Indo-Pacific Ministerial Forum, held in Brussels on 20\u201321 November.<\/p>\n

The high-level meeting brought together delegates from over 60 countries, who discussed global security challenges, regional stability, multilateral cooperation and the growing impact of climate change and geopolitical power competition in the Indo-Pacific region.<\/p>\n

The Minister highlighted the importance of Somalia\u2019s maritime strategy and its role in protecting vital waterways, noting that close cooperation is essential to ensuring security and stability in the region\u2019s waters.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a country, Somalia has the longest coastline in East Africa, these discussions are directly related to our national priorities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Abdisalan also said that Somalia is rebuilding its maritime capabilities, strengthening the management and protection of its maritime airspace, and expanding regional cooperation to secure key trade routes.<\/p>\n

He stressed the need to jointly address shared challenges, including illegal activities at sea, climate change and security threats arising from the competition between the world\u2019s great powers.<\/p>\n

Minister Abdisalan also attended a special ministerial meeting on Friday, where they discussed strengthening dialogue, promoting peaceful resolution of disputes and increasing cooperation to address new global threats.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday\u2019s discussion comes at a time of heightened geopolitical tension, as great power competition intensifies. Supply chains face new pressures, while the world\u2019s oceans have become an increasingly competitive arena,\u201d said Abdisalan.<\/p>\n

The minister called on the participating countries to respond together to the world\u2019s most urgent challenges.<\/p>\n
