Minister for Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha: "The Antalya Diplomacy Forum is a great opportunity to meet with colleagues, including from African countries. Ukraine is interested in strengthening ties and its presence in this region.
Today, we officially established diplomatic relations with Somalia. I signed a corresponding protocol with the State Minister for Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of Somalia, Ali Mohamed Omar.
We also discussed ways to develop our cooperation.
Ukraine has provided assistance to Somalia within the framework of the “Grain from Ukraine” program and is ready to continue strengthening food security.
We appreciate Somalia's support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine."
