With the support of #Turkey, #Somalia remains committed to building a secure and stable nation, both economically and in terms of security. We are focused on fully harnessing the potential of our onshore and offshore natural resources, including minerals, the Minister of Petroleum Dahir Shire said.
The collaboration between Somalia and Turkey extends beyond natural resource exploration; it also encompasses capacity building and technical assistance in various sectors. As part of this partnership, Turkish companies are actively involved in developing Somalia’s infrastructure, which is crucial for ensuring the effective transportation and distribution of resources.
Minister Daha Shire emphasized the importance of foreign investment in Somalia’s energy sector, stating that the presence of Turkish firms not only brings in capital but also fosters knowledge transfer that is essential for building local expertise. “Our goal is not only to extract resources but to create a sustainable energy sector that benefits all Somalis,” he remarked.
As Somalia continues to navigate its path towards stability and growth, the partnership with Turkey is seen as a pivotal element in achieving long-term economic resilience and security for the nation. The commitment to developing the oil and gas sector is expected to play a fundamental role in transforming Somalia’s economy and improving the livelihoods of its citizens.
