<p>Since the announcement of the Ethiopia - Somaliland memorandum of understanding
(MoU) the UK has been engaging closely with all parties involved, including the Somaliland
authorities, to call for calm and dialogue. We are urging all involved to avoid action
that would negatively affect regional security, especially the crucial fight against
al-Shabaab. Separately, the UK is supporting the Berbera Corridor project through
the 'Unlocking Prosperity in the Horn of Africa' programme. This has included £25
million in funding towards the development of infrastructure to facilitate access
to Berbera port for Ethiopia and the wider region.</p>
