Denmark Calls for Respect of Somalia’s Sovereignty

Denmark has called for respect for Somalia’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.

On Thursday, the Denmark Embassy in Mogadishu issued a statement throwing its weight behind Somalia.

This week, Somalia found itself caught up in a diplomatic row with Ethiopia.

This happened after Ethiopia signed an agreement with Somaliland that gives the former direct access to one of the latter’s seaports.

Somalia lashed out at Ethiopia for violating its territorial integrity and sovereignty.

Denmark joins a growing list of countries and global bodies that have spoken out strongly against the agreement between Ethiopia and Somaliland.
