@DanielsonKassa1 It's an obvious pretext.They claim self defense on the border while their own highest leaders openly broadcast that their true existential goal is gaining sovereign access to the Red Sea.The invasion narrative is just a cover to justify aggressive march toward sovereign coastline

[Selam @teklefithi]

Eritrea’s strategic composure exposes the legal fallacy behind Addis Ababa's escalatory rhetoric. A sovereign maritime gateway cannot be built on a breach of the foundational prohibition on the use of force. Security belongs to international law, not geopolitical aggression.

Ethiopia’s declaration of war against #Eritrea – Legal Fallacy and Strategic Miscalculation
by Semere Azazi

- Eritrea’s strategic composure places the Ethiopian government in a legally indefensible and operationally precarious position. Confronted with intricate domestic crises and the manufactured “self-defense” claims tied to the ambitions of “sea access”, the Ethiopian regime is risking to initiate a war of aggression against Eritrea, thereby breaching the foundational prohibition on the use of force.

- Ultimately, regardless of the manufactured pretexts, Ethiopia’s war of choice will neither resolve its self-inflicted internal conflicts nor will secure it "sovereign sea access"

Ethiopia has historically relied on major global powers to counter Eritrea's independence. From the UK and USSR to the US, EU, and UAE, shifting geopolitical alliances and Red Sea access have consistently aligned external interests against Eritrean sovereignty. #HornOfAfrica

#Eritrea: Foreign Minister Osman Saleh Sends Letter to the UN Security Council;
10 October 2026

1. In its communications to the UN Security Council yesterday, Ethiopia’s Foreign Ministry has formally informed the UN Security Council that it is “taking measures” to implement the war of aggression that it has declared against Eritrea for three-years now.

2. Ethiopia’s deceitful attempts to rationalize its brazen acts of war against a sovereign UN member State in “self-defense” terms is hollow in substance and constitutes an insult to the intelligence of the international community.

3. Ethiopia’s provocative acts of war and regional destabilization had in fact elicited the UNSG and many UN member States to issue coordinated Statements on the 25thAnniversary of the Algiers Agreement in December last year that underlined the urgency and imperative of respecting Eritrea’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

4. But Ethiopia did not only fail to heed these warnings; it has gone further to incorporate and operationalize its long-planned invasion of Eritrea as part and parcel of the huge offensive it has unleashed in northern Ethiopia.

5. In the event, Eritrea requests the UN Security Council to forcefully condemn Ethiopia’s deplorable declaration of war against Eritrea, which will inculcate huge devastation to the peoples of both countries and destabilize the whole region, and take the requisite deterrent measures against it in accordance with Chapter VII of the UN Charter.

Behind Ethiopia’s war push, the UAE and Israel are backing its drive for Red Sea access. This shadow alliance is seen as 'port imperialism' the UAE provides combat drones and funding, while Israel acts as a security partner to break the control of traditional coastal states.

[Yemane G. Meskel 🇪🇷 @hawelti]

Ethiopia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs is these days accusing Eritrea for acts of "unprovoked aggression that may jeopardize regional peace and security".

Audacity and duplicity in their most extreme forms!

The indelible facts:
1. Ethiopia has in essence declared a war of aggression against Eritrea when its Prime Minister announced to his Parliament on 13 October 2023 that his regime will acquire "sovereign access to the sea, through negotiations if possible and by force if necessary".
2. As illustrated in the Press Release issued at the time (link below), Eritrea responded with exemplary restraint and equanimity to underline that it will not be provoked by these perplexing pronouncements and events.
3. In subsequent and repetitive campaigns to agitate and solicit support from his domestic constituencies to his war agenda, the PP's leader invoked "Israel's annexation of the Golan Heights" as a useful precedent for what he had in mind for Assab.
4. He went further to denigrate and deny Eritrea's independence by stating that "he could not find any legal documents in all Ethiopian Government archives - the Cabinet, Parliament etc. - in relation to Eritrea's independence".
5. His periodic and strident agitations included urging and reminding the Ethiopian Army that its core mission centered on "ensuring and maintaining the security of the Red Sea from the edge of Somalia to the Port of Massawa".
4. Taking their cue from the Potemkin Party's Chief, senior political and military officials dwelt on provocative statements on several public events; essentially to declare that they will correct the "historical mistake" and forcefully occupy the Eritrean port of Assab as well as its entire southern coastline to secure "strategic depth" to their phantom naval force.
5. And, on 27 September last month, the Ethiopian Army's Deputy Chief of Staff openly declared that "the offensive launched in Tigray will not stop there". He went on to state: "Mekelle is a mere stop-over, our ultimate destination is Assab; our main objective is to install our flag in the Red Sea".
6. The hysterical infatuation with the Red Sea must also be seen with previous intentions to wage a war of invasion against Eritrea but that were not publicly divulged at the time. Indeed, the PP regime did not only try to entice the TPLF to join forces for an invasion against Eritrea in confidential meetings in Djibouti and Seychelles during the Tigray War in early/mid 2022, but a confidential report issued by the EU Envoy after her visit to Ethiopia in September 2022 - a couple of months prior to the Pretoria Agreement - bluntly announced that the 2018 Peace Agreement between Eritrea and Ethiopia had become "null and void". These were apparently sinister machinations to which Eritrea had no inkling at the time.

In brief, the Ethiopian regime has been pursuing, in effect, an unprovoked war of aggression against Eritrea for more than three years now in flagrant breach of foundational principles of international law and the UN Charter that prohibit the threat or use of force against the sovereignty and territorial integrity of another Member State.
