🔴 Énorme DINGUERIE encore des États-Unis... L'arbitre somalien Omar Artan 🇸🇴 s'est vu refuser son entrée aux États-Unis, alors qu'il est sensé officier pendant la Coupe du Monde ! 🙄 Malgré l'aide appuyée de l'ambassade somalienne de Nairobi, qui lui a fourni un PASSEPORT DIPLOMATIQUE, M. Artan a dû faire demi tour à son arrivée aux USA. On parle d'une personne qui a été élue MEILLEUR ARBITRE AFRICAIN EN 2025 ! 🤦‍♂️ (@Romain_Molina)

Shameful fabrication as a part of the disinformation campaign. Whatever you do, you can never change the reality that Somaliland is part of Somalia.

Somalia cannot even guarantee the security of its own guests. President HSM should focus on stabilizing his own city and country, instead of obsessing over the Republic of Somaliland. Somaliland is secure, democratic, and now finally recognized. We have strong friends and allies today.
