MPs Chris Smith and Marc Veasey from both major parties in the United States have added new provisions to the Somaliland Cooperation Act which includes;
The US presence in Somaliland is to/for;
-Increasing cooperation in the fight against terrorism and the sharing of intelligence information to defeat the terrorism of Al-Shabaab, ISS and other terrorist groups.
– the PRC’s role in fomenting unrest in the Sool region of Somaliland and;
– the role played by the Republic of China (Taiwan) in checking the PRC’s engagements in Somaliland.
