I saw social media posts wondering how the representative of Eritrea 🇪🇷 at Miss World 2026 is garnering more votes than contestants from countries with vastly larger populations.
🇪🇷 Those who underestimate Eritrea do so at their own peril. 🇪🇷

Potemkin Party's disingenuous ruses and delusional hysteria know no bounds!
As underlined on several occasions before, coveting or hallucinating about aggressive designs on the port/coastal region of a sovereign neighbor is a political blasphemy of the highest order. It indeed constitutes a grave and flagrant violation of international law; the UN Charter as well as the Constitutive Act of the African Union.
Invasion can never be packaged and camouflaged as "Ethiopia's (good-faith) maritime aspirations for Africa's unfinished integration".
In the event, the Potemkin Party's crass and ludicrous ploys only accentuate how far it has strayed from the realm of common sense and sanity.

Facts matter. UN development grants allocated to Eritrea through UN agencies should not be portrayed as direct donor funding to the Government of Eritrea. Those funds are managed within the UN Cooperation Framework. Direct donor assistance is a different category altogether and typically involves budget support or donor-implemented programmes.

Does the US still support the UAE proxy Abiy Regime in Ethiopia?
"Ethiopian National Defense Force and U.S. Africa Command will jointly host the first African Logistics and Communication Symposium in Addis Ababa from July 27 to 31, 2026." Talk about backing a loser, again...
Glad to have met a dear sister and a friend of Eritrea, Ambassador Amina Mohammed, former Minister of foreign affairs of Kenya, after some lapse of time, during a get together with some other friends.
Hosted H.E. Beyene Russom, Ambassador of the State of Eritrea to Kenya at Ministry Headquarters today. Building on the strong foundation laid during H.E. President Ruto’s State Visit to Asmara in 2022, our discussions focused on strategic priorities aimed at deepening our bilateral ties. We discussed institutionalising our engagement through a Political Consultations Mechanism, finalizing a new reciprocal Visa Abolition Agreement, and fully operationalising our Bilateral Air Services Agreement. We also reviewed the peace and security situation in the region underscoring the primacy of peaceful coexistence based on respect for territorial intergrity. @ForeignOfficeKE
Eritrea: Happy Independence Day.
Celebrating 35 years of Eritrean independence.
Liberation has never come free, and it is never sustained without courage and sacrifice. The Eritrean people paid dearly to win their freedom, and they have continued to pay a heavy price for holding fast to what they believe in rather than yielding to powerful pressures. I honour the indomitable spirit and perseverance of the Eritrean people, and the sacrifices still being made. Your resilience inspires all who value true liberty.

On December 29, Chinese MFA spokesperson Lin Jian stressed that China expresses serious concern and firm opposition to Israel formally recognized Somaliland as an "independent sovereign state".
According to the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and international law, Somaliland is an inseparable part of Somalia's territory. China firmly supports Somalia’s sovereignty, reunification, territorial integrity, and opposes to any attempt to split Somalia territory.
The Somaliland issue is entirely an internal affair of Somalia and should be resolved by the people of Somalia in a manner consistent with their national conditions and constitution. Foreign countries should cease their undue interference. No country should incite or support separatist forces within another country for its own selfish interests. China urge the Somaliland authorities to recognize the situation and immediately cease separatist activities and collusion with external forces.
https://t.co/S35xyGtxmY An insightful article. States are sovereign and free to choose their own development models. It is therefore striking that Prosperity Party cadres persist in drawing comparisons between #Ethiopia’s development trajectory and that of its neighbors, particularly #Eritrea, while disregarding historical context.
#Ethiopia|s policies over the past seven decades, including the #federation, #annexation, prolonged war marked by the deliberate destruction of vital economic and social infrastructure, 9 year long illegal and unjust @UN sanctions engineered by its sponsors, a sustained 25-year campaign of defamation and vilification, and refusal to implement the final and binding #delimitation and #demarcation decisions of the #Eritrea–#Ethiopia #BoundaryCommission, have directly disrupted and delayed #Eritrea|s economic development. Comparisons that disregard this historical and legal context are not analytical; they are selective and misleading.
From Eritrea’s perspective, “prosperity is not a slogan or a skyline”, but a moral and political test measured by the lived security, dignity, and cohesion of #Eritrean society. This cohesion underpins #Eritrea|s internal peace, stability, and security, and reflects the country’s conviction that #socialjustice is not a byproduct of growth but a central pillar of #development. Economic expansion alone does not automatically produce #fairness, #inclusion, or #dignity.
For #Eritrea, #socialjustice is intentionally built into development from the outset through policies that prevent marginalization, protect vulnerable groups, ensure equitable access to basic services, and avoid the politicization of identity. Growth on its own does not guarantee equal access to opportunity, protection from exclusion, or the fair distribution of resources. In many cases, rapid growth without justice deepens inequality, fragments societies, and fuels instability.
By prioritizing justice early, #Eritrea strengthens social trust and cohesion, essential foundations for peace, stability, and long-term prosperity. Durable prosperity rests on trust, inclusion, and restraint, not spectacle, acceleration, or outward projection. The need to parade visiting dignitaries in front of cameras in Addis Ababa in search of validation is telling; such displays would be unnecessary if governance enjoyed genuine domestic legitimacy.
For #Eritrea, protecting sovereignty, a necessary condition for safeguarding social cohesion and ensuring that development remains accountable to the people, is paramount. #Eritrea does not reject prosperity; it rejects prosperity without people.
