Mogadishu, Somalia (SONNA): Today marks a historic milestone for Somalia as it officially takes its seat on the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) after a 54-year hiatus. Elected as a non-permanent member for the 2025-2026 term, Somalia’s reentry into this crucial global body underscores its commitment to international peace and security.

The announcement was met with great enthusiasm and pride across the nation. In a statement, Somalia’s Ambassador to the United Nations, Mr. Abuukar Dahir Osman (Abuukar Baale), expressed the country’s dedication to the principles of the United Nations Charter. He remarked, “We are committed to upholding the United Nations Charter, and we are dedicated to maintaining international peace and security.”

As a member of the UNSC, Somalia will play a vital role in addressing global challenges, including conflict resolution, peacekeeping, and the promotion of human rights. This appointment is seen as a testament to Somalia’s progress and its growing influence on the international stage.

Somalia’s return to the UNSC is not just a national achievement but a significant step for the broader region. It signals a renewed focus on collaborative efforts to ensure stability and prosperity for all.
