I am also excited, particularly as a British citizen, that the new government in Juba is committed to recognising the independence of the Republic of Somaliland - the former British Protectorate of Somaliland - and I am convinced also that many other African and European states will shortly follow thereafter.
Mind teeb elevaks - eriti Ühendkuningriigi kodanikuna - ka see, et uus valitsus Jubas on lubanud tunnustada Somaalimaa Vabariigi, endise Briti Somaalimaa protektoraadi iseseisvust, ning olen ka veendunud, et paljud teised Aafrika ja Euroopa riigid järgivad varsti tema eeskuju.
