Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar has said that by recognising Somaliland and sending its foreign minister there, Israel has launched a direct attack on Somalia’s internationally recognised borders.
Addressing the extraordinary session of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) on Sunday, he said that Pakistan strongly condemns Israel’s recognition of Somaliland and the illegal and unrealistic act of the Israeli foreign minister’s visit to Somaliland. He stated that Pakistan respects and supports Somalia’s sovereignty.
