Gulf
News: Do you have strategic plans of unifying with Somalia in
the future?
SLN Foreign Minister: The main work of our government
is to bring the peace to Somalia because without peace we can do nothing. Then
we can negotiate about the other issues [whether] to be an independent state or
becoming a [federation] like the United Arab Emirates. There are different
political options. You cannot negotiate if there is no peace. We have to accept
some land as independent states.
