ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Saturday condemned Israel’s decision to recognize Somaliland, a breakaway African region, calling it a violation of international law and reaffirming its support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Somalia, the foreign office said. Israel this week announced it had recognized Somaliland — a self-declared region that broke away from Somalia in 1991 but has not previously been recognized by any United Nations member state — triggering condemnation from Somalia and criticism from regional bodies.

Breakaway region achieves diplomatic breakthrough after more than 30 years without international recognition.

The decision has been condemned by Somalia, Egypt, Turkey and Djibouti, who call it a dangerous precedent.
