Somali foreign minister, Abdirizak Mohamed on Tuesday dismissed media reports that its diplomatic ties with Djibouti severed after a report prepared by IGAD team chaired by Djibouti exonerated Kenya of violation of Somalia's territorial integrity.

Foreign Affairs Minister Abdirizak Mohamed said Somalia still maintains good relations with Djibouti but said it had registered its protests over the February report.

"For Djibouti, we are two brotherly countries and we are all Somalis, so there is nothing wrong with our diplomatic relations,” said Mohamed. "Somalia attended the inauguration of President Ismail Omar Guelleh.”

Last January, Somalia criticized the findings of an IGAD fact-finding commission, saying that it found no evidence showing that Kenya was interfering in Somalia’s affairs.


The Horn of Africa country accused Kenya of supporting armed fighters. Kenya distanced itself from the allegations and said it wants the conflict to end.
