Somalia’s Sovereignty Test: Somaliland Recognition and UAE Rift Reshape Horn of Africa

Somalia cut port-security deals with the UAE after Israel recognised Somaliland as an independent state, accusing Abu Dhabi of backing Somaliland and undermining Somalia’s sovereignty. The UAE reportedly pulled security assets from Bosaso, while Somaliland’s DP World-operated Berbera port remains active. Analysts say the move reflects widening regional blocs and tensions over Yemen, with Mogadishu seeking support from Turkey and Saudi Arabia, though the central government lacks full authority over Somaliland and other semi‑autonomous regions.
