Bismillahi Rahmani Rahiim; I have arrived in Israel as the first President of the Republic of Somaliland to undertake a State Visit, and I am honoured by the warm welcome extended by my friend, President @Isaac_Herzog For thirty-five years, the people of Somaliland have built a peaceful, democratic, and resilient nation. We asked the world: Do you see us? Israel answered first. Today marks a historic milestone in our journey and the beginning of a new chapter in the relationship between Somaliland and Israel. To the people of Somaliland: I carry your hopes and aspirations with me. Generations have struggled, sacrificed, and persevered to bring our nation to this moment. We will seize this opportunity with confidence, wisdom, and determination, always guided by the interests of our people and our Republic. Today, history is being written, and Somaliland stands ready to forge a shared future founded on friendship, cooperation, and mutual respect. #SomalilandIsrael

رئيس صوماليلاند في إسرائيل. ثلاثون عاماً وصوماليلاند تبحث عن باب عربي يُفتح لها، فلم تجد سوى الانتظار، اليوم فتحت تل أبيب الباب لرئيس شعب يسعى إلى تثبيت دولته وسيادته. في السياسة، من يترك الفراغ لا يختار من يملؤه. كل الدعوات لشعب صوماليلاند بالازدهار والسلام والاستقرار

Honoured to attend the State Lunch hosted by my friend President @Isaac_Herzog at the Presidential Residence in Jerusalem. From Davos to Israel, our conversations have reflected the growing ties between Somaliland and Israel. Today, those ties take another important step forward as we work together to build a future of partnership, cooperation, and shared opportunity for our peoples. I extend my sincere appreciation to President Herzog for his warm welcome and generous hospitality. #SomalilandIsrael
