Somali Insurgent Group Denounces UN Sanctions on Eritrea

December 25 Posted by: Bini | 25-12-2009, 15:04 |

Somalia's Islamist and nationalist opposition group Hizbul Islam has sharply denounced U.N. sanctions imposed Wednesday on the Eritrean government for allegedly supporting the insurgency against the U.N.-backed transitional government in Somalia.

Hizbul Islam's information secretary, Sheik Mohamed Mo'alin Ali, says the U.N. Security Council is unfairly punishing Eritrea while ignoring violations committed in Somalia by Eritrea's arch rival in the region, Ethiopia.

Ali says the international community is focused on what Eritrea may be doing in Somalia without giving equal attention to Ethiopia, which he says is constantly sending troops to Somalia and interfering in Somali affairs.

On Wednesday, the U.N. Security Council passed a resolution imposing an arms embargo on Eritrea as well as freezing the assets of individuals and companies. The resolution also placed a travel ban on the country's top political and military officials.
