WHY THE WEST TARGETS ERITREA
"They don't deal with the World Bank. They are not begging and there is no NGOs," said former Ethiopian diplomat and veteran communist Mohamed Hassan about Eritrea during an interview with Sovereign Media’s Ahmed Kaballo, in which the former broke down why Asmara became a prime target for Western economic and political quarantine following its independence in 1993.
Hassan revealed how the confrontation began immediately when the World Bank and IMF visited President Isaias Afwerki, demanding complete control over the country's national agenda.
However, when Asmara insisted upon writing its own national programme, western institutions labeled the leadership a "rebellion."
The hostility deepened due to Eritrea's commitment to radical self-reliance.
Hassan noted how Eritrea refuses to bow to debt traps or allow foreign NGOs to operate under the guise of civil society work (such as promoting micro-interests or carving up state sovereignty). As Hassan notes, if external actors want to help, they must support domestic national programmes.
In addition, Hassan cited Eritrea's national service (SAWA) to unite its diverse population across nine languages, Christians and Muslims alike.
Yet, he added, while nations like Isr*el, Turkey, and Greece are praised or ignored for mandatory military and national service, Eritrea faced intense vilification for doing the exact same.
Thus, Hassan argues, by refusing to submit to the "economic hitmen" of global finance and rejecting imperial oversight, Eritrea earned the wrath of Western powers determined to punish sovereign defiance in Africa.
