Somalia criticised over travel ban on Taiwanese passport holders
Taiwan has criticised Somalia for barring Taiwanese passport holders from entering or exiting the African nation, the BBC reported on April 30th.
The prohibition came into effect on April 30th after a directive was issued by aviation authorities in Somalia last week, according to the foreign ministry of Taiwan. China has described the prohibition as a “legitimate measure.”
The foreign ministry of Taiwan said: “The ministry of foreign affairs has strongly protested Somalia’s action made under the instigation of China to restrict the travel freedom and safety of Taiwanese nationals and has demanded that the Somali government immediately revoke the notice.”
