The Egyptian government has strongly condemned Somaliland\u2019s move to open what it called an \u201cembassy\u201d in the occupied city of Jerusalem, describing the move as illegal and in violation of international law.<\/p>\n

A statement from the Egyptian Foreign Ministry said Cairo \u201cstrongly opposes\u201d the opening of the facility, which it said would undermine the legal and historical status of Jerusalem.<\/p>\n

Egypt also reiterated its position that East Jerusalem is Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, saying that any move to change its legal status is \u201cabsolutely null and void.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Egyptian government also reaffirmed its support for the unity and territorial integrity of Somalia, warning against any unilateral move that undermines Somalia\u2019s sovereignty.<\/p>\n

This comes after the Somali government issued a statement on the opening of the center, describing Somaliland\u2019s move as \u201clegally null and void\u201d and a violation of the country\u2019s unity and the decisions of international organizations.<\/p>\n

Israel and Somaliland had previously announced an agreement to \u201cformally recognize each other\u201d and establish full diplomatic relations, including plans to open embassies and cooperate in the fields of agriculture, health, technology and economic development.<\/p>\n

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa\u2019ar, who visited Somaliland earlier this year, said the new relationship was \u201cnot against anyone in particular,\u201d but rather to advance the interests of both sides.<\/p>\n
