The statement made from the DMM's social media account noted the following:
"Claims on some social media accounts attempting to position Turkey as a country seeking unilateral gain in the energy sector, particularly regarding oil exploration in Somalia, are clear disinformation and a deliberate distortion targeting the mutual cooperation between Turkey and Somalia.
The agreement signed between TPAO and the Somali Petroleum Authority explicitly stipulates that natural resources belong to the people of Somalia.
Turkey-Somalia relations continue through mutual cooperation between two sovereign, friendly, and brotherly countries.
It is kindly requested that no credence be given to disinformation that constitutes black propaganda targeting this solidarity, which is growing stronger in many areas every day."
