According to Ethiopian security official, no explanation was given the deportation of President Ali Khalif from Ethiopia.

The Ethiopian Foreign Ministry has rejected allegations from Somali Interim Prime Minister Ali Khalif Galayr, that Ethiopia was interfering in Somalia. The director of the ministry said that the criticism in a BBC interview was an attempt to shore up the interim Somali Government’s dubious authority. He called it a “calculated attempt to seek scapegoats” and a dangerous tactic to mobilise international support as a substitute for domestic support. He also warned that Ethiopia would respond “in the appropriate and stern manner” to any attempts.to undermine Ethiopia’s security.
