@martinplaut The Houthis don’t need a base in Eritrea to threaten Bab el-Mandeb. They’ve already demonstrated long-range capabilities, including reaching Israel. The strait is only 32 km wide. The U.S., UK, France, China & others monitors the area & this guy pretends know better than them.

You may have seen my X post on "Eritrean" 🇪🇷 Bruke Desalagne who raped a 60 old man outside a church in. I have had two Eritreans @eritrean_post & now @Eritrea1952 who confirm he's an Ethiopian 🇪🇹, and he sent me his Facebook page. It's an immigration scam as Eritreans are rarely refused asylum.

His name is written in Amharic the native language of Ethiopia and says his place of birth is the capital Addis Ababa.

English is compulsory in Eritrean schools and Desalagne needed an interpreter.

The image is lifted from his FB page.

Eritrea’s Sovereignty Is Not Negotiable: Neither Is the Sovereignty of Any Other African Nation

The Embassy of the State of Eritrea has taken note of recent articles by Deutsche Welle (DW), “Eritrea: Key Player in the Geopolitical Gamble at the Horn,” and Foreign Policy Journal, “Eritrea Emerges as a Critical Strategic Player in the Horn of Africa’s Shifting Geopolitical Landscape.”

While both acknowledge Eritrea’s strategic importance, domestic stability and growing relevance in the Red Sea and Horn of Africa, they reproduce remarkably similar narratives that distort Eritrea’s history, minimize, and normalizes the implications of Ethiopia’s declared unlawful pursuit of “sovereign access” to the sea, portray Eritrea’s legitimate regional diplomacy as an anti-Ethiopian project, and employ politically loaded characterizations of Eritrea.

At the heart of current Eritrea-Ethiopia tensions is a fundamental question that should not be obscured: commercial access to a port is one matter; sovereignty over another country’s coastline or territory is entirely another.

Eritrea has no territorial claim against Ethiopia, demands no Ethiopian land or resources, and seeks no alteration of Ethiopia’s internationally recognized borders. Eritrea has never, in recorded history, opposed Ethiopia’s legitimate commercial use of regional ports through mutually negotiated arrangements. Landlocked countries throughout the world conduct international commerce through neighboring coastal states without acquiring sovereignty over their territory. In fact, commercial necessity creates opportunities for cooperation among countries; it does not create territorial entitlement.

Ethiopian official rhetoric concerning “sovereign access” to the Red Sea therefore cannot be sanitized as a simple dispute over maritime trade. Economic aspiration, demographic size or geographical disadvantage cannot be converted into sovereign entitlement, nor can they justify revising internationally recognized African boundaries. Any suggestion to the contrary constitutes a flagrant violation of international law and would establish a profoundly destabilizing precedent for the continent.

The historical framing employed in both articles is equally troubling. DW describes Eritrea as having “split” from Ethiopia, while Foreign Policy Journal asserts that Eritrean independence “stripped Addis Ababa of its direct coastal outlet.” Such terminology reverses historical cause and effect and inadvertently lends legitimacy to contemporary territorial revisionism such as that by Ethiopian leaders.

The mere truth is that the Eritrean people are endowed with their own, separate, and rich history in the millennia prior to the advent of European colonialism to the African continent. In this respect, Eritrea’s modern territorial boundaries, like those of virtually all African states, were consolidated during European colonial rule, with the Italian colony of Eritrea formally established in 1890. Eritrea subsequently passed through Italian colonial rule, and a ten-year British Military Administration, (BMA), in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War before being linked with Ethiopia under a bogus “Federal Arrangement” to mollify the “overriding” geopolitical interests of major powers and against the expressed will of the Eritrean people.

Moreover, Ethiopia unilaterally abrogated the “Federal Arrangement” ten years later and annexed Eritrea in 1962, precipitating the three decades of protracted armed struggle for independence.

In the internationally supervised referendum of 1993, 99.805 percent of Eritreans voted for independence, after which Eritrea was admitted to the United Nations. To portray this internationally recognized process as Ethiopia being “stripped” of a coastline is historically prejudicial and legally untenable.

Furthermore, the Eritrea-Ethiopia boundary is neither provisional nor unresolved. Following the 1998–2000 border war, both countries signed the Algiers Agreement and voluntarily submitted the “putative dispute” on some areas on the common boundary – specifically, “Badme and its environs” – to independent international arbitration.

The Eritrea-Ethiopia Boundary Commission (EEBC) rendered its delimitation decision in April 2002 based on the “Colonial Treaties of 1900, 1902, 1910) and applicable international law”, further expressly stipulating, in accordance with other provisions of the Algiers Agreement, that the determination is final and binding.

The articles also attempt to interpret Eritrea’s relations with Egypt, Somalia, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, the United States, and other partners primarily as an effort to construct a “counterweight” against Ethiopia.

This is an Ethiopia-centric and reductive interpretation of the legitimate foreign policy of a sovereign state. Eritrea is a Red Sea nation situated along one of the world’s most consequential maritime corridors. Its international relations naturally encompass maritime security, regional stability, trade, investment, transportation, and bilateral cooperation. Eritrea does not require an Ethiopia-centered explanation for every diplomatic relationship it maintains.

Equally problematic is the contradiction between acknowledging Eritrea’s remarkable stability while simultaneously disparaging that stability as merely “authoritarian.” The articles invoke terms such as “autocratic,” “repressive,” and “authoritarian,” speculate about institutional collapse after a future leadership transition and reproduce sweeping and pejorative comparisons with “North Korea”. Political labels and hypothetical succession scenarios are not substitutes for evidence or serious analysis. Eritrea’s political system must be examined within its historical experience, social fabric, national institutions, its people’s unity, and independent nation-building trajectory – not judged exclusively through predetermined ideological templates.

This contradiction is particularly striking because the articles themselves recognize Eritrea as comparatively peaceful, cohesive, and secure, strategically positioned along the Red Sea, and increasingly important to regional and international partners. These realities deserve examination on their own merits rather than being reframed as evidence of political deficiency.

The overall principle at stake extends far beyond Eritrea. Africa’s interstate order rests on respect for inherited international colonial boundaries, sovereign equality, and territorial integrity. If established borders can be reopened because one country is larger, landlocked, economically ambitious or considers another state’s territory strategically necessary, virtually no African boundary would remain immune from challenge.

Eritrea claims no territory belonging to another state and seeks peaceful, mutually beneficial relations with Ethiopia and all its neighbors. What is not open to negotiation is Eritrea’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Eritrea’s sovereignty is not a geopolitical bargaining chip. It is an internationally recognized legal right, and the same right upon which the security, sovereignty and territorial integrity of every African nation ultimately depend.

President Isaias Afwerki met, at the Denden Guest House in the late afternoon hours today, Saudi delegation led by the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Engineer Waleed Bin Abdulkarim al-Khereiji.

President Isaias underlined the importance of further consolidating the historical bilateral ties of friendship and cooperation between Eritrea and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia through the cultivation of shared and aligned views and positions on vital regional and international issues.

The two sides discussed, in greater depth, the role of the littoral States of the Red Sea in guaranteeing the peace and security of the region against the backdrop of fluid regional and international developments and trends.

In this context, the two sides decided to expedite the concrete implementation of cooperation agreements in the political, economic, security, cultural and social sectors previously reached between Eritrea and Saudi Arabia.

🇪🇷❤️ Highly relevant arguably more than when 1st submitted:

📌Regional ownership by littoral states
📌Realistic threat assessment
📌National naval & defense capacity
📌Respect for sovereignty & international law
📌Limited external support when regional capacity is insufficient

[Yemane G. Meskel 🇪🇷 @hawelti]

In these tumultuous times, charting out synergetic and complementary architecture of collective regional security, and more broadly, modalities and mechanisms of wider cooperation has become more vital and urgent than ever before.

The overarching political considerations and operational calculus behind this conviction are the imperatives of ownership and agency; the need to avoid a polarized climate of global rivalry; and the rationale for enhancing local capacity building and mutual cooperation between the main stakeholders to secure and enhance enduring regional peace and stability.

In the Red Sea, this broad framework translates and is better summed up in the following 12 points that Eritrea submitted to the Council of Red Sea and Gulf of Aden Littoral States few years ago.

Eritrea maintains that these parameters can indeed serve as substantive inputs that can be enriched through continuous and rigorous consultation against the backdrop of fluid and changing realities.

1. Comprehensive and unbiased assessment of the current realities of the Red Sea and associated matters, in all their dimensions and perspectives in a realistic manner;
2. Full clarity on the desired objectives and goals;
3. Detailed mapping of the threats to the peace and security of the Red Sea; and, categorization and specification of these parameters;
4. Formulation of a viable strategy that will ensure achievement of constructive objectives and goals;
5. Formulation of strategies to contain and eliminate the threats in tandem with the positive policies of cooperation;
6. Mapping out detailed schemes and plans that will ensure holistic implementation of the twin strategies;
7. Stipulation of the implementation mechanisms, associated structures and mobilization of the requisite resources;
8. Ensuring that all the organizational configurations and frameworks that are developed are anchored on respect of sovereignty and international law;
9. Ensuring that all littoral States build and possess their own effective defense capabilities and naval forces (without delegation to others);
10. Supplementing, through collective efforts and synergy, those specific tasks that cannot be met through individual domestic capabilities and resources;
11. All relevant States will create appropriate modalities of cooperation with “external forces” for tasks or missions that are beyond their collective capability on the basis of a consensual framework;
12. Creation of competent committees to address all these issues in a comprehensive and professional manner.
