Eritrea: Ministry of Foreign Affairs Urges AU to Restore Eritrea’s Representation at Its Headquarters
(Similar Letter Sent to UNECA)

[Yared Tesfay @ytmn2]

Abiy Ahmed and his government have consistently engaged in misinformation campaigns and provocative rhetoric directed at Eritrea. The Ethiopian regime has taken an aggressive stance, openly calling for military conflict and the invasion of Eritrea. This duality is evident in the government's communications: statements in Amharic are intentionally provocative and inflammatory, while those in English adopt a more diplomatic tone for an international audience. This strategic use of language escalates tensions in one context while trying to maintain a diplomatic façade in another. To shed light on this ongoing narrative, we will translate and share a series of these provocative statements on EmbassyMedia, highlighting the discrepancies and the underlying intentions behind the different versions of communication. #EmbassyMedia

At this point, one has to wonder whether Tsadkan and Samora are colluding with the TPLF to lead the Prosperity Party’s army into Military Ruse (the Bermuda Triangle of Tigray). Everyone can see the army advancing along tarmacked roads and capturing cities. But the question increasingly on everyone’s mind is: Will they ever come out alive?

This time Abiy can not run to Eritrea or Fano to save him!

Foreign Minister Osman Saleh gave, today, a briefing on Ethiopia's unprovoked acts of aggression and its geopolitical ambitions to the Diplomatic Community in Asmara.

In his extensive briefing, FM Osman elaborated, with substantive details and evidences:
- the Ethiopian regime's repetitive and provocative pronouncements - by senior Prosperity Party political and military officials - for three long years on their belligerent strategy for acquiring "sovereign access to the sea";
- these ambitions and accompanied saber-rattling constituted a declaration of war against Eritrea in flagrant breach of the UN Charter and relevant provisions that prohibit the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity and political independence of any UN Member State;
- the Prosperity Party regime continued to provide sanctuary, as well as military and logistical support, to an assortment of inconsequential opposition groups;
- the regime was further engaged in proxy military activities that fuel regional conflicts and exacerbate instability in the Horn of Africa.

ETHIOPIA SEEKS A PRETEXT FOR A WAR IT HAD DECLARED LONG AGO

Over the past three years, Ethiopia’s PM has repeatedly vowed to secure “#sovereign #access” to the #Red #Sea through negotiations if possible and by force if necessary. He questioned Eritrea’s very independence and sovereignty. In doing so, he used state institutions, including , but not limited to, Parliament, state media, and official meetings; not to mention his paid digital media mercenaries. His generals have repeatedly boasted that their war would erase the boundary, leaving neither a sovereign #Eritrea nor its government.

These are not isolated remarks. They reveal a dangerous pattern of threats against a sovereign state, undermining the #UN #Charter, #international #law, and treaties that govern #territorial #integrity.

Abiy’s regime evidently keeps shifting its false accusations: one moment alleging that Eritrea crossed the border, the next claiming that Eritrea arms and supports the Alliance Forces for Survival (AFS). Yet these allegations failed to provide a shred of evidence and remain unconfirmed by independently verified bodies. Such wild accusations cannot substitute for proof and should never be allowed to serve as a pretext for a dangerous and premeditated plan of aggression.

To cover up its wild plans, this PP government is struggling to manufacture “evidence” for a #war its leaders have already threatened publicly. The world must not mistake the pretext for the aggressor’s false accusations for evidence and call this aggressor by its name.

A Reminder !
Just in case you’ve forgotten the true cost of war.

Decades of war. Countless families shattered. Generations of sacrifice. And still, Ethiopia’s rulers have not learned the ultimate lesson: you cannot achieve anything by threatening your neighbor.
PP Ethiopia, history is warning you. Choose peace

[Berhane @EmbassyEritrea]

It must be clearly stated that #Ethiopia - since its inception as a country has never, at any point in history, possessed sovereign access to the #RedSea. The only time it used Eritrean ports was during its illegal #occupation of Eritrea - an occupation rejected by the Eritrean people and defeated through a 30-year protracted struggle for #independence. Eritrea’s #sovereignty and territorial integrity was achieved through enormous sacrifice and is not subject for any negotiation or revision. Any attempt by Ethiopia’s current PP leadership to lay claim to Eritrean land or ports like Assab or any other place for that matter, is not only historically false but also an open violation of international law and the 1963 OAU principle that upholds colonial boundaries. Such reckless rhetoric serves only to destabilize the region and expose the aggressor nature of those who utter it. Eritrea’s sovereignty is not a topic for debate; it is a settled and irreversible reality.

Abiy Ahmed effectively declared war on #Eritrea since October 2023 and has been preparing for war for the past three years. He has provoked Eritrea, going so far as to claim that Eritrea, as a nation-state, does not exist.

Anyone who has been following developments in Ethiopia has been predicting that he would eventually start a war with Eritrea, particularly after the sham election he organised. But his first priority was to reassert control over #Tigray, after the people of Tigray refused to take up arms against Eritrea. Abiy also has unfinished business with Tigray and has continued to seek to subjugate its people.

He has worked hard to provoke a war between Eritrea and Tigray, deliberately pulling out Federal Forces from all the border areas and attempting to antagonise the two sides into fighting each other. But he failed miserably, as the wise people of Eritrea and Tigray chose peaceful coexistence instead. This has angered Abiy, who has since been working relentlessly to divide and weaken Tigrayan people by every means at his disposal.

Over the past two weeks, he has moved towards war, first marching towards Tigray and then, ultimately, Eritrea. But because he cannot launch a war against Eritrea without having to answer to the international community, he has been concocting a “self-defence” narrative to justify an invasion of Eritrea.

Last week, he appeared to try to use Al Jazeera and Awol Arba to implicate Eritrea, with reports claiming that Eritrean troops had moved deep into Afar. But the story failed to gain significant traction in the international media.

Today, the job was given to @dwnews, which reported alleged sightings of Eritrean troops inside Tigray. There was no confirmation from the Tigray authorities, nor was there any reported fighting with the ENDF—despite claims that Abiy has already occupied the whole Tigray and that his army are supposedly dancing in the streets.

In my opinion, Eritrea has shown extraordinary restraint despite the colossal daily provocations and repeated declarations of war from Abiy and his PP followers. It would be the ultimate dereliction of duty for Eritrea to simply sit idle while the PP’s army marches towards Eritrean territory with military equipment supplied by the UAE, apparently seeking to capture Eritrean territory.

And for the record, Abiy is risking everything—including the possible disintegration of #Ethiopia—to start a war with Eritrea for two reasons. First, to distract the #Ethiopian population from the utter failure of his leadership; and second, because he is acting as an agent of the UAE, which has ambitions to control as many ports as possible along the strategically vital waterways of the Red Sea.

In the wake of the upsurge of fighting in the northern part of Ethiopia, one of their senior Generals stated, in an interview with a local media outlet on 27 September last month: "... When we launch the offensive, we will not stop in Tigray.. Our main objective it to install our flag in the Red Sea".

The General also stated, on another occasion: "Mekelle is a mere stop-over, our ultimate destination is Assab".

H.E. Martin Kimani, Assistant Secretary-General for #Africa in the Departments of Political and Peacebuilding Affairs and Peace Operations (DPPA-DPO), paid a courtesy visit to @Eritrea_UN.

I congratulated him on his new assignment and assured him of #Eritrea’s continued cooperation and support in advancing peace, stability, and constructive regional engagement. We exchanged views on developments in the #HornOfAfrica and underscored the importance of sober and objective assessment of regional dynamics, respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of States, and sustained dialogue with the @UN.

The meeting also provided an opportunity to clarify #Eritrea|s position on various issues of concern affecting the region. #Africa|s peace and security are indispensable to the continent’s development and progress. The lessons and mistakes of the past should inform our collective approach, and no #Africa|n State should have its voice or legitimate concerns marginalized in international deliberations. We agreed to remain engaged.

Press Release

Ethiopia’s Deplorable Acts of Hostility

https://t.co/kmkxALIAuG

*"...In reality, it is Ethiopia which has been pursuing an agenda of incessant hostility – in effect, a publicly pronounced declaration of war – against Eritrea for three years in pursuit of 'the imperative of acquiring sovereign access to the sea' through the invasion of sovereign Eritrean ports and coastal areas".

*"...Throughout these trying times, Eritrea has displayed patience and restraint in the hope of averting a dangerous escalation".

*"...In the current circumstances, however, Eritrea has no option but to reciprocate in kind and severe all diplomatic ties with Ethiopia with all the negative corollaries that this entails".

The people of #Ethiopia have lived along side the people of #Sudan for centuries and are destined to do so in the future. What Abiy is doing openly to destabilise Sudan will leave the biggest scare in the relationship of the two countries.
