Remarks by the UN Special Representative for Somalia, Catriona Laing, to the media, during her visit to Garowe, Puntland
So firstly, on Puntland's elections, I would like to commend Puntland for being an island of stability, for leading the way on democracy through the successful district level elections in May. But, I am conscious that there are some tensions, some different views amongst different stakeholders on the electoral model in Puntland and on the timetable. So what we've discussed is that β whilst the goal is very clear, a democratic process β I commend the President for reaching out to different groups, and encourage him to reach out not just to opposition leaders, elders and clan leaders, but also people who have a stake β the youth, the women and scholars and so on β to include them to ensure that when the elections take place that there's consensus and of course peaceful elections.

(Edited for clarity) Thank you so much, Excellency. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm delighted to be visiting Puntland. This is my second visit, following assuming office as the UN Special Representative of the Secretary-General. So it's a great pleasure this morning to meet with President Deni and...
Deni calls upon the opposition for negotiations.
Puntland is Future Somalia. Araanjaan and HAG doesnt want it 1m1v to implement in Somalia. They knows if its happen then they will lose everything.
Inshallah 1m1v will be implemented in puntland.
Now or never.
