Dear Friends,
It is an honor and privilege to serve as the Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Somalia to the United States. As we continue to strengthen the bonds between our two nations, I am committed to fostering deeper diplomatic, economic, and cultural ties. The relationship between Somalia and the United States has always been rooted in mutual respect and a shared vision of peace, prosperity, and development for both our countries and the broader global community.
In my role as the Ambassador, I pledge to work tirelessly to represent the interests of Somalia and its people while promoting collaboration in areas such as trade, security, education, and cultural exchange. I am equally dedicated to supporting the Somali diaspora in the United States, who continue to make significant contributions to both countries.
Together, we will build on our historic partnership to forge a brighter, more prosperous future. I look forward to engaging with all of you in the years to come.
Warm regards,
Dahir Hassan Abdi
