This article has been read over 13,000 times. I hope the Addis conference is going well and will help bring democracy and freedom to Eritrea. So badly needed. So richly deserved!

🚩UNICEF is very insensitive to appoint Eritrea’s Ambassador to the United Nations, Ms. Sofia Tesfamariam, as Vice President of UNICEF’s Board. Eritrea, the North Korea of Africa, is a Pariah state of 30 years with neither constitution nor free media. Eritrean forces have committed genocide on the people of Tigray according to reports from Human rights watch, Amnesty International, and even UNHRC. More recently this fact is reported in the New Lines Institute Genocide report.
„Am 23. Februar gibt es #Neuwahlen, damit eine neue Bundesregierung die Verantwortung für unser Land übernehmen kann. Eine Bundesregierung, die aufhört zu streiten und die sich daran macht, die Probleme unseres Landes mit einer anderen Politik, die dringend notwendig ist, zu lösen.“ (tm) #Bundestag
Many in the diaspora support indefinite national service in #Eritrea by saying that it allows us to not depend on the West but
1. Eritrea still takes money from the West. 2. It’s up to the youth if they want to make that massive sacrifice, not ppl sitting comfortably miles away
@ElizabethTecle@UN Special Rapporteur asks States to show solidarity w/#Eritrean asylums & justice defenders to ensure their protection. Yohannes Abraha/ #FreeJohnBlack is just that & it's imperative for #Netherlands to protect & advocate for those defending it's democracy against 🇪🇷 regime.
#Eritrea is a totalitarian dictatorship and is usually called Africa's North Korea. Isayas Afewerki has ruled the country with an iron fist since independence in 1993. There is no constitution, no parliament, no independent media and only one party is allowed.
There were great hopes for democracy and development in Eritrea at the time of independence in 1993. Eritrea has developed into an authoritarian one party state where all power is concentrated in Isaias Afwerki and his allies.
Political opposition is not tolerated. Freedom of speech, press, meeting and association is limited. Those who practice unregistered religions, try to flee the nation or escape military service are arrested and imprisoned. According to Amnesty International, Eritrea is one of the world's most repressive countries.
