@reda_getachew Reducing our struggle to ‘fighting for freedom only to end in slavery’ is neither fair nor historically honest
Eritreans achieved self-determination against overwhelming odds The tragedy isn’t that freedom was sought but that liberation remains unfinished
La lotta continua

It's a great privilege to conduct the first official diplomatic visit to Somaliland, at the invitation of President @Abdirahmanirro.
The visit is also a message: We are determined to vigorously advance relations between Israel and Somaliland.
Today, we held substantive discussions with the President and senior members of his government on the full range of our relations.
The mutual recognition and establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries are not directed against anyone. Our shared objective is to promote the mutual benefit of both nations and countries.
In Hargeisa, I made it clear:
Only Israel will decide whom it recognizes and with whom it maintains diplomatic relations.
The President of Somaliland informed me that he has accepted @IsraeliPM Netanyahu’s invitation and will pay an official visit to Israel.

So saddened by the tragic events in #Australia. Sending love, strength, and solidarity to the victims, their loved ones, and the wider community. 🌍🕯️

#Eritrea exit from #IGAD reflects long-standing grievances, but withdrawal is not a strategy. Aligning instead with #Egypt & Arab states risks swapping one imbalance for another. This is not a coherent national policy but a personalised decision-making, not institutional vision.

The utter stupidity of two Tigrayan forces exchanging fire disgusts me!

[Selam Kidane @Selkid]

It’s perplexing how Isaias Afwerki keeps changing his ‘strategic allies’ without ever outlining or revising his strategy. Three years ago it was Abiy and #Ethiopia — now it’s Al-Sisi and #Egypt. No one in #Eritrea can say what the strategy is, or who the next ally will be.

[Selam Kidane @Selkid]

The Lampedusa disaster of 3 Oct 2013, where 300+ Eritreans perished, is a stark reminder of two failures: Eritrea’s regime denying its people a life of dignity, and the world’s silence in protecting desperate Eritrean refugees. https://t.co/Oajai0a3VN

This is the story of how the founding director of Eritrea's public television was imprisoned 24 years ago, and has not been seen since. His name is Seyoum Tsehaye, and he is an internationally recognised photographer and journalist. He also happens to be my uncle.

@tewerwari_1 1992/93 Ethiopia secured Assab as a transit/free port (access cut in the 1998 war)
2001Gov’t declared Assab a “free zone”
2015–21 UAE ran a military/logistics base under lease
2018 peace deal raised talk of reopening to Ethiopia
Yet Eritreans have never seen figures or terms 🤷��‍♀️
