Abstract

The contribution deals with the topic of the African Union’s approach to South Sudan and Somaliland as examples of the secessionist movements in the Horn of Africa. The main scope of the contribution is to answer the question of why South Sudan has been supported by the African Union in its struggle for self-determination culminating in secession, while, on the other hand, Somaliland has not been successful in its efforts to gain an international recognition. Methodologically, the contribution presents a comparative case study and is based on the interviews carried out with officials at the African Union Commission and other experts in Addis Ababa in 2010 and 2011.
