خطوة جديدة تفضح خبث "نظام الازدهار"
أرسلت وزارة الشؤون الخارجية ، بتاريخ 12 أكتوبر، مذكرات احتجاج رسمية إلى مكتبي الاتحاد الأفريقي ولجنة الأمم المتحدة الاقتصادية لأفريقيا، بشأن الإجراء الذي اتخذته الحكومة الإثيوبية بطرد الدبلوماسيين الإريتريين من الاتحاد الأفريقي، والممثل الدائم لدى الاتحاد الأفريقي ولجنة الأمم المتحدة الاقتصادية لأفريقيا.
وأكدت وزارة الخارجية في رسالتها أن هذا الإجراء يشكّل انتهاكًا صارخًا لمبادئ السيادة والمساواة بين الدول الأعضاء في الاتحاد الأفريقي، وللمادة 15 من اتفاق عام 2008 المبرم بين الاتحاد الأفريقي وإثيوبيا بوصفها الدولة المضيفة، ولاتفاقية الاتحاد الأفريقي لعام 1965 المتعلقة بحصانات ممثلي الدول الأعضاء، فضلًا عن اتفاقيات دولية أساسية أخرى، مشددةً على أن العضوية في المنظمات الإقليمية والقارية لا يجوز إنتهاكها بإجراءات أحادية تتخذها الدولة المضيفة.
وبما ان التمثيل في هذه المنظمات حقٌّ سيادي لاينبغي أن يخضع لرغبة دولة عضو أخرى أو نزواتها، دعت الوزارة إلى اتخاذ تدابير تصحيحية، وإلى ضمان حقوق إريتريا بوصفها دولة ذات سيادة وعضوًا متساوي الحقوق، وضمان عضويتها ومشاركتها الكاملة في الأنشطة التي تُنظَّم.
إن هذا الإجراء الإثيوبي المتمثل في طرد الدبلوماسيين الإريتريين وقطع العلاقات معهم هو استمرار للانتهاكات والتعديات التي تستهدف سيادة إريتريا ووحدة أراضيها.
وكانت سفارة إثيوبيا في أسمرة قد توقفت منذ شهر مايو 2026 عن الرد على المراسلات الرسمية الصادرة عن وزارة الخارجية، وقطعت اتصالها بالوزارة، ثم سحبت أفرادها من إريتريا في 8 أغسطس 2026 دون إخطار وزارة الخارجية الإريترية. وكان ذلك إجراءً مخالفًا للأعراف الدبلوماسية المتبعة، ومكيدةً هدفها تهيئة الأرضية لما هو أخطر.
وبعد أن قررت إثيوبيا إغلاق سفارتها في أسمرة، أمرت في 1 أكتوبر 2026 الدبلوماسيين الإريتريين المعتمدين لديها، ولدى الاتحاد الأفريقي ولجنة الأمم المتحدة الاقتصادية لأفريقيا، بمغادرة البلاد خلال 48 ساعة. غير أن الدبلوماسيين المطرودين لم يكونوا معتمدين لدى إثيوبيا فحسب، بل كانوا يعملون ضمن هاتين المنظمتين أيضًا، ولذلك فإن هذا الإجراء يمثل انتهاكًا صارخًا للقانون الدولي والاتفاقيات التي تحكم العضوية والمشاركة في المنظمات الإقليمية والقارية، وإن المطالبة بإلغائه حقٌّ سيادي.

'Abiy Ahmed has sent his newly hand picked Ministers to Military Training Camp ... ' #Ethiopian Media outlets are reporting for the past two days... when you think it can not get any crazier.... @cgtnafrica@BBCAfrica@AJEnglish@trtafrika
Foreign Minister Osman Saleh gave, today, a briefing on Ethiopia's unprovoked acts of aggression and its geopolitical ambitions to the Diplomatic Community in Asmara.
In his extensive briefing, FM Osman elaborated, with substantive details and evidences:
- the Ethiopian regime's repetitive and provocative pronouncements - by senior Prosperity Party political and military officials - for three long years on their belligerent strategy for acquiring "sovereign access to the sea";
- these ambitions and accompanied saber-rattling constituted a declaration of war against Eritrea in flagrant breach of the UN Charter and relevant provisions that prohibit the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity and political independence of any UN Member State;
- the Prosperity Party regime continued to provide sanctuary, as well as military and logistical support, to an assortment of inconsequential opposition groups;
- the regime was further engaged in proxy military activities that fuel regional conflicts and exacerbate instability in the Horn of Africa.
Potemkin Party officials and trolls have this appalling propensity and despicable political culture of manufacturing lies on a daily basis in virtually all domains - history, diplomatic events, "casualties they have inflicted" in phantom battles with EDF etc.
The video clip below claiming that Italian PM "has condemned Eritrea" - (total fabrication/photoshopped from an original speech by the PM on the Italian Government's domestic plans for the elderly) - is another vivid instance of their routine and preposterous lies!
Wonder what the underlying reason is? Perhaps it can be explained by the Syndrome: "ሜስ'ሲ ንዘይፈልጦ የጥርጦ!"

Post @SecRubio smackdown, #Potemkin is split into two: the hardliners like Horn review say war is in season lets use Art.51 to keep shooting VERSUS Jawar camp that argue for access to #Assab or Eritrea will have to spend its GDP on military readines meaning staring contest with Ethiopia. Which shall it be?

#Eritrea: Ministry of Foreign Affairs Urges AU to Restore Eritrea’s Representation at its Headquarters
(Similar Letter Sent to UNECA)
*"... The decision of the Ethiopian Government - to expel Eritrea's Permanent Representative and the entire diplomatic staff assigned to participate in the AU - constitutes a grave violation of the Constitutive Act; and, the Headquarters Agreement between the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and the African Union...".
*"... In light of the foregoing, Eritrea urges the policy organs of the AU to take immediate corrective measures to restore Eritrea's rightful representation at the Headquarters of the Union to ensure its full participation in the activities of the Union as a sovereign and equal member, in strict adherence to the Constitutive Act; the Headquarters Agreement; and, the General Convention".
(The Letter also underlines that Ethiopia had in fact closed, without any formal announcement, its Embassy in Eritrea much earlier on 8 August 2026).

Information Note Regarding #Eritrea-Ethiopia Relations
(Document circulated to UNSC Member States on 13 October yesterday in response to "Ethiopia’s Note on Current Developments” of 11 October 2026)
*"...Over the past three years, the Government of Ethiopia has sustained and progressively intensified its unprovoked war agenda against Eritrea under the rubric of acquiring 'Sovereign access to the sea, through negotiations if possible and force if necessary', in violation of the UN Charter and the 2018 Peace and Friendship Agreement between the two countries. Ethiopia’s acts of aggression and destabilization include the pronounced establishment of a Naval Force with jurisdiction over and strategic depth in Eritrea’s southern coastal region".
*"...Taken together, these developments are tantamount to, and constitute, a brazen violation of Eritrea’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, in breach of the prohibition of the threat or use of force under Article 2(4) of the Charter of the United Nations".

Let us not mince our words and call a Spade a Spade!
1. The Potemkin Party has been obsessed/immersed in unparalleled military expenditure spree in the last three years.
2. In the last three quarters of 2026 alone, the regime has received 365 UAE Cargo/military deliveries for use in its multiple domestic conflicts and concomitant acts/designs of regional destablization.
3. At the same time, the regime has received - and these are conservative estimates - over 30 billion US Dollars in cumulative external financial assistance in the last eight years from several multilateral and bilateral donors.
4. And yet, almost 21.4 million people all over the country remain in dire conditions whose survival depends on humanitarian assistance.
In a nutshell, the priorities of this callous regime are crystal clear; reckless wars of delusional "grandeur" in lieu of the welfare of the majority of its people and enduring regional peace and stability.
