		</div><p>Somalia&#8217;s breakaway northern territory of Somaliland has asked the United States for an exemption to President Donald Trump&#8217;s executive order on travellers from seven predominantly Muslim nations.</p>
<p>Somalia is one of the affected countries, but Somaliland considers itself an independent state after breaking away in 1991.</p>
<p>It continues to seek international recognition for its claim.</p>
<p>A statement by Somaliland&#8217;s foreign affairs minister, Saad Ali Shire, says the republic wrote a letter to Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly on Monday requesting the exemption to the travel ban.</p>
<p>The statement says Somaliland argued it &#8220;has not experienced the emergence of terrorist organisations&#8221;, in contrast to Somalia, where home-grown extremist group al-Shabab continues to carry out deadly attacks.</p>
