Hargeisa(horn)-“WE are disappointed by the shifting of Talks between Somalia and Somaliland from Turkey to Switzerland.”

This was stated by the Turkey’s deputy prime minister Hakan Cavusglu during a meeting with Somalia president Mohamed Abdilahi Farmajo in Mogadishu.

According to Geeska Afrika Newspaper sources close to Villa Somalia, the Turkish official was emphatic that authorities in Ankara view the talk’s development as spite in the face Turkey has been hosting the international sanctioned talks for a number of years but its partiality towards the position of Somalia led

Somaliland to seek alternate venues.
