Eritrean policy towards Somalia
Eritrean engagement in Somalia can be understood only in terms of Asmara’s
broader regional policies, most importantly its continuing dispute with Ethiopia.
Since the cessation of hostilities between the two countries in 2000, Asmara has
sought to counter Ethiopian influence in the region and supported armed groups
within Ethiopia who oppose the current government. Since 2006, and possibly
earlier, Eritrea has supported opposition to the Transitional Federal Government,
which it perceives as a proxy for the Government of Ethiopia.

In this context, it has been the stated policy of the Government of Eritrea to
oppose the Djibouti agreement of 18 August 2008, deny the legality and legitimacy
of the Transitional Federal Government established pursuant to that process, and call
for the expulsion of the AMISOM forces based in Mogadishu. In support of this
policy, the Government of Eritrea has provided significant and sustained political,
financial and material support, including arms, ammunition and training to armed
opposition groups in Somalia since at least 2007.

In addition to military support, the Government of Eritrea has consistently
provided financial support to Somali armed opposition groups, including ARSAsmara,
Hizbul Islam and Al-Shabaab. Provision of cash permits armed opposition
groups to purchase weapons from government

Late in May
2009, during Al-Shabaab’s and Hizbul Islam’s most significant offensive against the
Transitional Federal Government and AMISOM, ARS-Asmara leader Hassan Dahir
Aweys expressed his gratitude to Eritrea: “Eritrea supports us and Ethiopia is our
enemy — we once helped both countries but Ethiopia did not reward us”,

Security Report on Somalia, try again son.

Hassan Dahir Aweys is not Al-Shabaab.

It even says in his title that he's part of ARS-Asmara.

READ IT IN BLACK AND WHITE

The Monitoring Group has received credible information indicating that
Eritrea continues to send arms to Somalia in small vessels via the northern Somali
port of Laasqoray for onward shipment to Shabaab forces in southern Somalia by
Mohamed Sa’iid Atom (see section IV.A below). In May 2009, Eritrea allegedly sent
Ukrainian-made small arms and anti-tank weapons to Hizbul Islam via the port of
Kismaayo.

[Monk-of-Mogadishu]

Do you really think Atom is a weapons smuggler?

That's their only connection to Eritrea-Al Shabaab links.

Paidmonk do you agree that Eritrea funds atleast Xizbul Islam? Your dumb to think that they don't share weapons?

Following the formation of ARS in September 2007, the Government of
Eritrea directed financial support principally via ARS. However, according to ARS
officials, during the course of 2008, Eritrea established direct links with other
opposition groups, including Al-Shabaab and the Raas Kaambooni forces. Colonel
Te’ame told ARS officials: “We have experience of this kind of struggle and we
must have direct relationships with groups in each region”. According to these same
sources, payments to each group are in the order of $40,000-$50,000 per month,
plus additional funds for large-scale operations. During the course of 2009, the
Monitoring Group learned of Government of Eritrea cash contributions to the
following opposition figures:
• Yusuf Mohamed Siyaad “Indha’adde” (ARS-Asmara, central regions,
subsequently joined the Transitional Federal Government as Minister of State
for Defence)33
• Issa “Kaambooni” (Raas Kaambooni forces, Lower Juba region, arrested in
Kenya late in 2009)
• Mukhtar Roobow (Al-Shabaab, Bay and Bakool regions)
• Mohamed Wali Sheikh Ahmed Nuur (Hizbul Islam, Gedo region)
