_____________________________________________________________________
Democratic watchdog organization Freedom House recently released its annual rankings of the world’s most suppressed nations, finding that global freedom is under pressure. The Republic of Somaliland is the only country that is partly free at the Horn of Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. It’s also the only nation, with unquestionable borders from the colonial era, that is not recognized. This is a historical wrongdoing and an enormous contradiction that needs to be repaired true an international recognition of the Republic of Somaliland immediately.
