The President of the Republic of Somaliland H.E. Musa Bihi Abdi sent a congratulatory message to the newly elected Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Rt.Hon. Rishi Sunak.
In a statement published by the President on his Twitter account yesterday, he said;
“Congratulations Hon. Rishi Sunak for your choice of British Prime Minister and leader of the Conservative Party.
The President’s statement added that Somaliland and the UK share a long history.
“During your leadership, I hope that Somaliland and UK’s long history and shared interests will create a strong relationship and close friendship.”
The President’s congratulations come after Rishi Sunak was elected Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and leader of the Conservative Party following Truss’s resignation after 40 plus days in the seat, the shortest ever for a premier in UK history.
