Profile Q & A - Born in Beijing and Raised in Geneva, but Dreaming of Eritrea: Dr. Helen Awet

*"...Since the time of the Eritrean armed struggle, the diaspora community has maintained a remarkably strong and united bond. Growing up in that environment was a true blessing; it instilled in me a deep sense of solidarity. Every summer, we traveled to the famous Bologna Festival in Italy, where we met Eritreans from across Europe. As children, we spent endless hours playing in open fields and making new friends. Those unforgettable memories still bring me boundless joy as a member of the diaspora".

*"...Uniquely, the Eritrean diaspora possesses an unusually resilient bond with its homeland. As a result, the community demonstrates an extraordinary capacity for mobilization, forged during the national liberation struggle and continues to thrive today in support of national development projects".

*"...I want to encourage Eritreans, both at home and across the diaspora, to continue sharing Eritrea’s authentic history, rich heritage, and natural beauty. The precious social capital forged through our national identity played a decisive role in achieving liberation and continues to drive our development today. It is a legacy well worth sharing with the world".

Claiming my land & my wife are illegitimate, invasive,& permanently void. Sovereignty isn’t a debate; it’s law. Boundaries aren’t invitations. Desire doesn’t rewrite title. What’s mine is mine not because I say so, but because the law does. #Eritrea

STOP DISTORTING FACTS: Eritrea is straddling on 3,300 kms of coastline-includes 354 islands-on the
Red Sea which is an international shipping trade corridor. The main reason why, Eritrea’s foreign policy is deeply anchored on finding ways and means of lasting mutual diplomatic and security efforts which are focused on peace building. With clear objectives to safeguard and promote a safe, economic, efficient and sustainable movement of people, goods, mail, capital, known how and technology to dominate and to strive in this important international trade corridor . エリトリア #Erittea #UNSC #TDF2026

Good and productive discussion with Eritrean Foreign Minister Osman on U.S.-Eritrea bilateral relations. Recognizing the complex and often challenging dynamics across the region, we explored opportunities to strengthen our partnership and expand cooperation on trade, regional economic development, and security. At a time when collective efforts are more important than ever, we underscored the need to work together constructively to address regional conflicts and advance lasting peace, stability, and prosperity in the Red Sea and the Horn of Africa.

🚨 Eritrea’s Cash Crackdown: All Nakfa Must Go to Banks by July 31! The Central Bank just issued a bombshell directive: Citizens and organizations must deposit all cash holdings in Nakfa (ERN) into commercial banks by July 31, 2026. Holding large amounts outside the banking system is now illegal. No account? Open one immediately.
And yes — the existing 5,000 Nakfa monthly withdrawal limit still applies.

🎙️ In this episode we unpack:
1) Why is the government doing this?
2) Pros and Cons of the Decision
3) The Digitalization Argument: Why Modernizing Matters

[Amb. Sophia Tesfamariam @AmbStesfamariam]

The greatest tragedy is that it is the peoples of the #Horn of #Africa who continue to bear the heaviest burden of policies that undermine #peace and #security. Every act of brinkmanship, inflammatory rhetoric, and disregard for the #sovereignty and territorial integrity of states diverts scarce resources from development, weakens regional trust, discourages investment, and prolongs uncertainty for millions.

PP, that turns violence against its own people, can hardly inspire confidence that it will live in peace with its neighbors. Leadership that normalizes coercion, repression, and confrontation at home inevitably erodes trust abroad and fuels regional instability.

Equally regrettable is that those with the influence to help reverse this dangerous trajectory too often choose to look the other way. By extending diplomatic cover, political backing, and financial support without demanding genuine accountability or restraint, they risk emboldening the very policies that fuel instability. Silence and selective engagement are not neutral; they carry consequences for the entire region.

The #Horn of #Africa deserves a different path, one founded on mutual respect, sovereign equality, good-neighborliness, and strict adherence to international law. The region's future lies not in revisionist ambitions, manufactured grievances, or threats of force, but in dialogue, cooperation, and a genuine commitment to peaceful coexistence.
