ASMARA, May 21 (Reuters) - Eritrea's President Isaias Afwerki said renewed accusations that Asmara is arming Somalia's Islamist rebels was the work of CIA agents in the region bent on blackening his government's name. "We don't interfere (in Somalia) and we don't want to see any terrorism prevail in Somalia," Isaias told Reuters.

Isaias said the new government of Somalia -- the 15th attempt to restore central rule in the last 18 years -- looked doomed to fail because it was imposed from outside.
