#Somalia at a geopolitical crossroads
In this new international order, weak states like Somalia have three options. 1. Attempt strategic autonomy and fail. 2. Become battlegrounds for competing powers. 3. Bandwagon with a dominant power that can provide security guarantees. 1/1

This is a Somalia’s original sin
Dhaqanka cod iibsashada iyo in la farogeliyo garsoorka dalka ma ahan mid nagu cusub hadda. Waxa aynu ka dhaxalnay maamulkii hore ee Cigaal iyo Cabdirashiid Cali Sharmarke. 1/1

Ciribta fitnada ku habsatay Soomaaliya waa mid dib ugu laabaneyso intii u dhexeysay 1967 ilaa 1969 kii, xilligii ay xukunka joogeen Abdirashid Ali Sharmarke iyo Cigaal.
"This short period between 1967 and 1969 marked Somalia’s original sin, a foundational moment when the trajectory of the republic bent away from democratic ethics and toward dictatorial rule." Via @HMudane

IMMEDIATE RELEASE JULY 15, 2025 Xaqsoor Party Launches to Champion an Era of Justice and National Dignity MOGADISHU, SOMALIA — A broad coalition of Somali citizens today announced the formation of Xaqsoor, a new political party committed to championing justice, unity, and shared prosperity for the nation. The party’s launch is the culmination of more than a year of extensive consultations across a wide range of Somali society. Xaqsoor founders, including senior politicians, diplomats, youth, educators, journalists, and leaders from business and civil society, echoed the collective sense of betrayal and growing hopelessness felt by many Somalis toward a political system widely seen as enriching a narrow elite at the expense of the public good. During the party's inaugural convention on July 14, founding members unanimously elected Abdirahman Aynte, a former Planning Minister, to serve as party leader. They also elected Abdi Ahmed Mohamed Baafo, a former Agriculture Minister and a respected scholar, as chair of the party’s Central Committee. “Injustice is Somalia’s number one, two, and three calamity,” Aynte told more than a thousand supporters packed into a hall at Mogadishu’s Afrik Hotel during Xaqsoor’s launch ceremony. “When injustice goes unchecked, corruption flourishes, insecurity spreads, and clan divisions harden. We formed Xaqsoor to fight that injustice so the law protects every citizen, power answers to the people, and every Somali child can build a bright future right here at home.” At the unveiling ceremony, the party leader introduced Xaqsoor’s founding Executive Council: two deputy leaders, a secretary‑general, and a 19‑member leadership team drawn from senior politicians, leaders from civil society and business, and youth. The council includes leaders responsible for key areas such as party development, good governance, youth, diaspora affairs, and social services. “Xaqsoor, as the name suggests, is more than just a political party. It’s a cause powered by Somalis from every corner and generation, united to build a nation where justice lights the way and the people’s interest stands above all else,” said Abdi Baafo. Grounded in Islamic principles and Somalia’s rich culture, the party seeks to mobilize the nation’s “silent majority”: the millions of citizens who demand a fundamental shift toward a political system of governance built on justice, transparency, and equality. This launch comes at a pivotal moment for Somalia, one rich with opportunities to strengthen its statehood, unlock its immense economic potential, and secure a dignified life for every citizen. By championing governance rooted in justice and transformation, Xaqsoor offers a clear path toward systemic reform. The party is committed to confronting injustice and endemic corruption to build a nation that works for all Somalis. Moving forward, Xaqsoor will launch a nationwide mobilization campaign to build its grassroots support and prepare for upcoming elections. About Xaqsoor Xaqsoor is a new Somali political party founded on the principles of justice, equality, and citizen-centered governance. The party emerged from extensive consultations with diverse segments of Somali society and is dedicated to offering a transformative vision for the nation's future.

📣SOME PERSONAL NEWS📣 After over a year of extensive consultations across #Somalia and beyond, I’m deeply honored and profoundly humbled to be elected Chairman and Party Leader of XAQSOOR PARTY by its founding Central Committee. At a time of profound national challenges, our mission is clear: to confront systemic injustice and transform the corrosive political culture of the elite, which is disintegrating the Third Republic established 25 years ago. Together with the Executive Council, I pledge my unwavering commitment to achieving this noble objective. Aluta Continua!
