What do you think — is the common claim accurate, or is the distinction between access and ownership important?
Reply with your take or sources.

Key sources:
• UN General Assembly Resolution 390 A(V)
• Algiers Agreement (12 December 2000)
• Eritrea–Ethiopia Boundary Commission decision (13 April 2002)
These documents treat the border and independence as settled. Access to ports is a separate issue from ownership.

Quick timeline:
• Eritrea was an Italian colony (from 1890)
• Federated with Ethiopia in 1952 under UN Resolution 390
• Annexed by Ethiopia in 1962
• Gained independence in 1993 after a referendum
The ports of Assab and Massawa were part of Eritrea.

@Alice_Weidel You are right, but expected .

President Isaias of #Eritrea reading of global and regional politics is uncanny. He clearly predicted that Iran was going to be attacked four months ago in his New year address. It is almost prophetic! He was planning the effects of an attack on Iran and how to deal with its consequences, before it actually happened. WoW!

@masuzafi @RTErdogan @netanyahu History should never be used to justify the suffering of innocent people. The protection of civilians is a fundamental principle of international law. Every Israeli and every Palestinian life has equal value, and lasting peace requires accountability and respect for human right.
