Was there in 2016. It's drop dead gorgeous.
The people are closer to yemen than somalia so no.
socotra is yemeni
It is much closer to Somalia than Yemen. Kilmia ( a small island is like 50 km off the coast of north east Somalia).
How did you get there? by boat from Somalia or flight.
Wallahi the Majeerteen sultanate shouldve colonised it & changed the demographic China style.Socotra waa Puntland
Doesn't matter if the Island is geographically closer to Somalia. The native inhabitants are Ethnic Arabs & are loyal to Yemen.
They want nothing to do with Somalia.
Why?
Mate they’re yemeni arabs. Why would we annex it - that’s assuming we could annex it
Socotra should stay the way it is .
Tbh, its kinda weird it reminds of the shanta somaliyeed and somaliweyne dogma that it self is quite regressive to Somali progress.
