Heartbreaking message from young Ethiopian soldier. PP cadres push for war from thier comfort zones while poor Ethiopian like this young man pay the price. 💔👇

"My brother died in Amhara region and now govt has told us we will fight in Amhara region. My mom couldn't bear death of my brother also I'm about to die. I can't survive Its better if I kill myself here,atleast my mother can see my body ,bury me".

Afaan Oromo perquisites for a school lunch.🙆‍♀️
The Amhara child was denied lunch at school as he couldn't speak Afaan Oromo.
Oromummaa elites who don't even represent Oromos have taken tribalism to new height.

[Amb. Sophia Tesfamariam @AmbStesfamariam]

As I stated nearly two decades ago, #US-#Eritrea relations were soured by design. The deterioration was not accidental, organic, or the result of misunderstanding, it was deliberate and structured. Washington made conscious policy choices, crafted narratives, and executed geopolitical calculations that systematically undermined Eritrea’s sovereignty and development.

Eritrea|s independent political and economic stance never fit within Washington’s Ethiopia-centered strategy, a reality successive Ethiopian regimes were quick to exploit. U.S. policymakers believed that isolating and weakening Eritrea would somehow elevate Ethiopia’s regional stature and preserve Western influence in the Horn of Africa.

This flawed logic produced the illegal 2009 UN sanctions and the politically motivated 2012 mandate establishing the Special Rapporteur on Eritrea, both engineered by U.S. officials to appease Ethiopia, strangle Eritrea’s economy, and pressure it into compliance. Reinforced by Western-funded #NGO disinformation, these measures distorted Eritrea’s image and impeded its development trajectory.

The 2009 UN sanctions against Eritrea remain one of the most egregious examples of politically driven injustice in recent #UN history, a case still without explanation or accountability. Eritrea was punished not for wrongdoing, but for daring to oppose the U.S. - and Ethiopia-led intervention in Somalia, an operation that unleashed one of the region’s worst humanitarian disasters.

More than fifteen years later, Somalia has yet to recover from the devastation caused by that intervention. No UN Sanctions Committee has ever produced credible evidence to substantiate the fabricated allegations that #Eritrea supported terrorism. Yet the Eritrean people bore the heavy economic and diplomatic costs of this false accusation, a concoction of U.S. and #Ethiopia|n agendas designed to isolate a sovereign nation that refused to submit to external diktats.

For over twelve years, #Eritrea has faced relentless and politically motivated harassment at the @UN @UN_HRC under the guise of the Special Rapporteur’s mandate. This mechanism, born not of genuine concern but of geopolitical calculation, has functioned as an instrument of pressure rather than a vehicle for truth or justice. Year after year, it recycled discredited claims, amplified the voices of politically affiliated activists, and ignored Eritrea’s tangible progress in nation-building and social development.

During this same period, the @UN_HRC and its sponsors turned a blind eye to #Ethiopia|s repeated atrocities, from genocides and ethnic cleansing to mass killings and displacement of its own citizens in #Amhara, #Oromia, #Gambela, #Tigray and the #Ogaden. This glaring selectivity and silence expose the moral bankruptcy of the so-called human rights machinery, which has too often served power, not principle. #Eritrea|s endurance through this institutionalized bias stands as proof of a nation’s steadfastness in the face of orchestrated defamation and coercion.

The credibility of the United States as an honest broker for peace and development in the #Horn of #Africa collapsed with each act of appeasement toward #Ethiopia. Rather than upholding international law and the UN Charter, Washington turned a blind eye as successive Ethiopian regimes committed grave crimes, from genocides and ethnic cleansing to the systematic marginalization of entire communities in #Ethiopia. By shielding and empowering these regimes, the U.S. and its allies not only enabled atrocities but also undermined regional stability and forfeited their own moral authority.

This long-standing indulgence of #Ethiopia, through diplomatic cover, economic and military aid, and willful silence on repeated violations of international law, directly fueled the chaos we witness today. What could have been a relationship grounded in peace, mutual respect, and lawful coexistence was derailed by #Ethiopian expansionism, Western backing, and the deliberate disregard for binding international agreements. The outcome is today’s Prosperity Party regime, unstable, unpredictable, and nearly impossible to engage meaningfully.

The chaos in Ethiopia today is no accident. It is the cumulative result of decades of Western indulgence. Successive U.S. and European administrations prioritized short-term strategic interests over justice, legitimizing successive #Ethiopian regimes that ruled through repression, exclusion, and violence.

The #U.S. and #Europe|an guarantors and witnesses of the Algiers Agreements between Eritrea and Ethiopia also failed to uphold their commitments. Despite the binding decisions of the #Eritrea-#Ethiopia Boundary Commission, #Ethiopia occupied sovereign Eritrean territories for over eighteen years, in blatant disregard of international law.

By refusing to enforce the #EEBC|s rulings, the very powers that brokered peace instead enabled and legitimized aggression, undermining #Eritrea|s sovereignty and sending a clear signal that international agreements could be violated with impunity. This prolonged occupation not only delayed regional stability but further reinforced the pattern of selective accountability that has characterized Western policy toward the #Horn of #Africa.

By turning a blind eye to #Ethiopia|s internal abuses and regional aggression, the international community effectively rewarded impunity. The result is today's #Ethiopia...a nation mired in political instability, ethnic conflict, and humanitarian disaster, where the lives and livelihoods of ordinary #Ethiopians have been sacrificed to sustain the illusion of stability for external powers.

Eritrea approaches its dialogue with #Washington and #Brussels fully aware of this dark history. It expects, and deserves, a long-overdue course correction: a clear, consistent, and principled policy based on respect, not subordination. Above all, #Eritrea|s right to live in peace within its internationally recognized borders, demarcated twice, must no longer be sacrificed at the altar of appeasement and expediency.

The time has come for the United States and its allies to confront the consequences of their own choices. Stability in the #Horn of #Africa will not emerge from indulgence or selective morality, but from fairness, accountability, and respect for the sovereignty of all nations, including Eritrea.

Despite decades of bias, sanctions, and isolation, #EritreaAt34 has come full circle. It has endured, and outlasted, the policies designed to weaken it. Through resilience, self-reliance, and principled diplomacy, #Eritrea stands today as a nation that neither yielded to coercion nor compromised its sovereignty for favor.

The same voices that once sought to silence and sideline it now confront a reality they long denied: that #Eritrea|s steadiness, independence, and commitment to regional peace were never the problem, they were, and remain, the foundation for lasting stability in the #Horn of #Africa.

This Tigrayan's mind is sharp as a knife.
PP is paying many Tegaru to fight against the TPLF. If PP succeeded, Tigray would be engulfed with civil war.
Most Tigrayans don't realise they're in an existential threat. Some of them are totally detached from the reality on the ground.

The Ogaden region, a Somali-majority area, is rooted in pre-colonial Somali nomadic control, but was formally integrated into Ethiopia through the 1897 Anglo-Ethiopian Treaty, where Britain ceded Somali grazing lands to Emperor Menelik II without local consent. This marked the beginning of its contentious status as an "annexed" territory from a Somali perspective.

🚨To the Eritrean Diaspora.

Timnit Gebru has repeatedly spread false information about our soldiers. She must not be allowed to speak at the Eritreans In Tech Summit. This threatens the truth and Eritrea’s reputation.

We urge the diaspora community to sign this petition and demand her immediate removal from the panel. https://t.co/4pcuYZS1ug

September 1, 1961 marked the beginning of the Eritrean armed struggle against Ethiopian rule led by hero Hamid Idris Awate.

This historic moment represents a fundamental turning point in the Eritrean struggle for independence

From historical archives: Britain considered Eritrea as a war booty in the Second World War and literally plundered its entire economy; essentially for nefarious political ends. And UK Governments have not, to-date, acknowledged nor made amends for the abominable transgression.

@anthonytbrowder Let us not forget "Punt, Land of the Gods" located in present day Eritrea? Did the Gods of Kemet originate in Punt? then Kemetic civilization must have had its origins in Punt as well? known in Kemet at least from the 5th dynasty
