The Turkish government has made a significant change to its ambassadors in the Horn of Africa and Central Africa, with Somalia being one of the countries affected by this diplomatic restructuring.

The Ankara government has summoned and replaced nearly 30 diplomats, which is part of a restructuring of its foreign policy. According to Ankara media, this move has been described as an effort to enhance the effectiveness of Turkey's diplomatic activities abroad.

In Somalia, the new Turkish ambassador in Mogadishu has been appointed as Ferhat Alkan, while the former ambassador has been accused of being involved in Somalia's internal political affairs, allegations that have been widely discussed in recent times.

Other countries affected by the changes include Kenya, where Selin Özaydın has been appointed as the new ambassador of Ankara to Nairobi, Djibouti where Hüseyin Özdemir has been appointed, and Sudan where Fahri Türker Oba has been sent as the new ambassador to Khartoum.

The Turkish Foreign Minister, Hakan Fidan, is leading this extensive reshuffle involving nearly 30 diplomatic missions across Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. This move is seen as indicating the new direction Ankara wishes to take in managing its foreign relations and strategic interests in various regions of the world.
