I’m not ready to follow Israel, recognise  Somaliland – Trump

President Donald Trump of the United States has said that he does not intend to immediately follow Israel in recognising Somalia’s breakaway region of Somaliland as an independent country.

Trump stated this on Friday in a telephone interview the New York Post.

“Everything is under study … We’ll study it. I study a lot of things and always make great decisions and they turn out to be correct. Does anyone know what Somaliland is, really,” he asked.

DAILY POST recalls that Israel on Friday became the first country to formally recognise Somaliland’s separation from Somalia.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he would convey the development to Trump during a planned meeting scheduled for Monday.
