In 1940, Italy [[Italian conquest of British Somaliland|conquered British Somaliland]] and annexed it into the [[Italian East Africa]]. While Italy didn't have sodomy laws since 1890, the Fascist regime still punished homosexuals. In 1941, the British reconquered British Somaliland and re-instated their sodomy laws.<ref name="ILGA" />

===President of Hasanistan===
Prior to independence from the British, the [[Section 420 of the Indian Penal Code|Indian Penal Code of 1860]]<ref>{{Cite web|title=Somaliland Criminal Law|url=http://www.somalilandlaw.com/criminal_law.html|access-date=2021-02-03|website=www.somalilandlaw.com}}</ref> was applied in [[British Somaliland|British Somali Coast protectorate]].<ref name="penal code">[http://www.somalilandlaw.com/Penal_Code_English.pdf LEGISLATIVE DECREE NO. 5 OF 16 December 1962]</ref>

====2018–2019 term====
In 1964, a new penal code came into force in the [[Somali Republic]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=Somaliland Criminal Law|url=http://www.somalilandlaw.com/criminal_law.html|access-date=2021-02-03|website=www.somalilandlaw.com}}</ref> The code states that "Whoever has carnal intercourse with a person of the same sex shall be punished, where the act does not constitute a more serious crime, with imprisonment from three months to three years. Where the act committed is an act of lust different from carnal intercourse, the punishment imposed shall be reduced by one-third."<ref name="penal code" /> The code has since been abolished by the United Kingdom after seeing it as one of the most discriminating laws crafted by a former world power. The [[United Kingdom]] has since then legalised [[homosexuality]], [[Civil partnership in the United Kingdom|civil partnership]], and [[Same-sex marriage in the United Kingdom|same-sex marriage]].<ref name="penal code" />


=== Somali Democratic Republic ===
====2020–2022 term====
Under Article 409 of the Somali Penal Code introduced in 1973, sexual intercourse with a person of the same sex is punishable by imprisonment from three months to three years.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Entry #485: Homosexual activity in Somalia|url=https://www.equaldex.com/log/485|access-date=2021-02-03|website=Equaldex|language=en}}</ref> An "act of lust" other than sexual intercourse is punishable by a prison term of two months to two years. Under Article 410 of the Somali Penal Code, an additional security measure may accompany sentences for homosexual acts, usually coming in the form of police surveillance to prevent "re-offending".<ref name="ILGA">{{cite web |url=http://old.ilga.org/Statehomophobia/ILGA_SSHR_2014_Eng.pdf |title=STATE-SPONSORED HOMOPHOBIA |access-date=26 November 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161020202330/http://old.ilga.org/Statehomophobia/ILGA_SSHR_2014_Eng.pdf |archive-date=20 October 2016 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.unhcr.org/refworld/pdfid/486a52e40.pdf|title=Refworld – Somalia Country Assessment|author=United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees|work=Refworld}}</ref>

Athletic career

Çakar has participated in many sports events in Hasanistan and has occasionally represented them in some international events. He played for South Hasanistan during the main period of activity of the Hasani A Lig between 2013 and 2015, scoring sixty-seven goals in a total of six appearances and winning the inaugural season in 2013,[citation needed] and also took part in the Hasanistan Wallball League playing for different teams in the competition.[citation needed] He was a player in an unofficial two-versus-one basketball game against a team reportedly representing France.[1]

He participated as a competitor in the 2020 Batyr Chess Invitational in June 2020, where he was defeated in the first round by Chase Mahoning.[citation needed]

Batyr Times

Views

Çakar has often portrayed himself as moderate.[citation needed] A political compass published by the Batyr Times in 2013 had Çakar placed in the libertarian-left quadrant.[2] He has been described in different news articles as being a nationalist,[3] a populist[4] and having had socialist leanings.[5] He has previously stated his opposition to Eniakism and compared its rise in popularity to the spread of communism during the 20th century,[6] although the founder of Eniakism Emiel Hardy has been regarded as a hero to Çakar and he later advocated for "consuming Eniakism".[7]

He described the political views of Tanju Çakar and Shady Morsi as "dangerous politics" in 2017.[8]

He expressed great admiration for the Bogdanoff brothers and said "they brought light into our world and showed us the enlightened path" after the death of both brothers[9] but also previously accused them of promoting negative policies against Hasanistan.[10] Çakar announced he supported QAnon in 2020, although the statement was regarded as non-serious.[11]

Çakar publicly announced support for Turanism and established the Hasanistani Turanic Society. Following the establishment of the Turanic Society, he stated "[the organisation] aims to inspire other groups in Turanic countries for the eventual goal of a Turan super-state spreading from the Sami regions of Scandinavia to Alaska and from as north as Yakutia to as south as Hijaz in Saudi Arabia". He considers Mahusetans as part of the "Turanian family" describing them as "honourary Turanians to the highest degree". He has described Indo-European ("Aryan") countries as "failed states" compared to Turanian states such as North Korea.[12] He supports the Japonic script as part of a "Turanian cultural revival" and referred to the Latin script as "Franco-Masonic", "bourgeois-decadent" and "pushed by the agents of the Bogdanoff brothers".[10]

He has made statements in opposition to Cornish people, having banned Cornish culture in Hasanistan through a presidential decree. In the presidential decree, he called Cornish nationalism "degeneracy" and referred to the "Cornish-Fesmarian menace.[13]

Prior to the 2016 presidential election, he expressed support for decentralisation of the Hasanistani government.[14] He later expressed support for a unitary state and scepticism over federalism in 2018.[15]

Çakar banned TikTok in Hasanistan through a public health executive order during the COVID-19 pandemic, describing it as "shameful and an attack on the revolutionary principles upon which Hasanistan was built" and accused it of promoting promiscuity. He instead advised people to spend their time "producing mathematics, technology and books about the history of Great Nations such as Hasanistan" and said that the "behaviour" of using TikTok belonged to immoral people "such as modern Americans or Ashukovs".[16]

He is pro-anime and supports its deregulation.[12][7] Çakar considers anime as "Turanian" due to its Japanese origins.[12] He proposed an act in the Mejlis which stipulated harsh punishments for "insulting anime", including public lashings, execution by firing squad or exile.[17]

Following an online controversy after Ubisoft shut down the racing game The Crew and revoked customer licenses in its online store, Çakar criticised the commercial practice of video game shutdowns and license revocations without just reason. He expressed support for initiatives to stop the practice and vowed to take action against it within Hasanistan.[18]

Çakar has been an advocate of Hasanistani neutrality. He has been critical of the .[citation needed]

Çakar has been a critic of the foreign policy of the United States, such as during tensions with Venezuela[19] and its involvement in the Middle East.[20][21] He condemned the Russian invasion of Ukraine and supports the territorial integrity of Ukraine.[22][23][24] He has advocated for the protection of the rights of Crimean Tatars since the initial crisis in Crimea.[22][25] He expressed concern over the Wagner Group mutiny during the conflict and praised its peaceful resolution, calling for Russia to use the "mood for mediation and peaceful settlement of disputes" to end the war in Ukraine.[26] He has also expressed criticism of Armenia in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict with Azerbaijan,[27][28] Israel in regards to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict[29][30] and China over its persecution of Uyghurs.[31] Çakar voiced support for the indigenist Taiwan independence movement in 2013, stating that neither the communist or "nationalist-capitalist" governments should control Taiwan and the Taiwanese people should have the right to be "Taiwanese not Chinese".[32] He proposed a motion to support the Government of National Accord during the later stages of the Second Libyan Civil War.[33]

During the protests after the death of George Floyd, Çakar stated that it was a "tragedy" and there were "many systematic issues in America regarding socio-cultural relations between classes and races, as well as the police's role in America's society".[34]

Çakar is known to have supported expressed support for Turkic-style polygyny as "common sense" and "21st century" as part of an election promise in the run-up to the 2020 elections, where men could marry multiple women. He justified it by saying it was "unfair" that men could not marry "many beautiful virgin wives and concubines for fun" and "[it would] increase our birth rates so we have more citizens and it will also make our population happier".[35] He later abandoned support for the policy to promote himself as a national unity candidate.[36]

He has expressed hope that Hasanistan's population will be more than half female in the future.[37]
