“THE FORCE OF LAW MUST PREVAIL OVER THE LAW OF FORCE” #UN CHIEF SENDS A STRONG MESSAGE AMID RED SEA TENSIONS António Guterres reaffirms international law as Ethiopia’s pursuit of maritime access raises concerns over regional sovereignty and stability. United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres has delivered a firm message on violations of international law, emphasizing that no country's ambitions can justify actions that contradict established legal principles. Responding to a question about maritime disputes and Ethiopia's tensions with neighboring countries, Guterres made the UN's position clear: “Violations of international law are unacceptable.” Addressing maritime issues, the Secretary-General pointed to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), stressing that actions incompatible with the convention must not be accepted or respected. His statement reinforces a fundamental principle at the heart of international relations: countries must pursue their interests within the boundaries of international law, not through coercion, threats, or the use of force. Eritrea's sovereignty is not negotiable The remarks carry particular significance amid rising tensions surrounding Ethiopia's pursuit of Red Sea access and concerns about the potential threat to Eritrea's territorial integrity. Access to the sea can be pursued through peaceful commercial arrangements and agreements with neighboring states. But geographical circumstances or economic ambitions do not grant any country the right to threaten another nation's sovereignty or coastline. The Red Sea is a shared strategic waterway not territory that can be claimed through intimidation. Eritrea's sovereignty and territorial integrity must be respected, just as the sovereignty of every nation must be protected under international law. Any sustainable maritime arrangement must be grounded in peaceful negotiations, mutual consent, and respect for the rights of all parties. International law must stand above military power Guterres extended the principle beyond maritime disputes, reaffirming that violations of international law must not be tolerated wherever they occur. His closing message captured the stakes in a powerful phrase: “We must make sure that the force of the law prevails over the law of the force.” For the Horn of Africa, where regional rivalries and security concerns threaten to undermine stability, this principle is essential. Military threats cannot replace diplomacy, and political ambitions cannot override international obligations. The choice facing the region is straightforward: respect international law and pursue cooperation, or risk turning disputes into dangerous confrontations. No nation is above the law. No ambition justifies aggression. And no country's sovereignty should become the price of another country's strategic ambitions. The future of the Horn of Africa must be built on mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and the rule of law not the law of the strongest. #Eritrea #Ethiopia #AntónioGuterres #UnitedNations #RedSea #UNCLOS #InternationalLaw #HornOfAfrica #Sovereignty #PeaceAndSecurity
No Threats, No Forced Access: Cairo Draws the Red Line on Eritrea’s Sovereignty Egypt and the UN Chief stress de-escalation, mutual agreement, and commercial access amid rising tensions in the Horn of Africa. In Cairo, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty outlined discussions between President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi and UN Secretary-General António Guterres on regional stability, escalating tensions in the Horn of Africa, and the threat of a possible military attack on Eritrea. The message was clear: de-escalation must prevail, and maritime access must be built on mutual agreement not threats or force. Abdelatty emphasized two fundamental principles for any military or maritime access arrangement: it must serve legitimate commercial purposes and be based on mutual understanding and agreement with neighboring countries. At a time when rhetoric surrounding access to the Red Sea is raising concerns across the region, these principles carry particular weight. No country's pursuit of economic or strategic interests can justify undermining the sovereignty, territorial integrity, or security of its neighbors. The Red Sea is a vital artery for regional and global trade. Its future should be shaped by cooperation, respect for international law, and peaceful agreements not intimidation, military adventurism, or imposed arrangements. The discussions also addressed Egypt's water security and the long-running dispute over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD). Abdelatty reiterated President el-Sisi's position that the right to development must be balanced with the fundamental right to life and existence, highlighting the need for a negotiated solution. From maritime security to water security, Cairo's message points toward a fundamental principle: lasting stability cannot be built by threatening a neighbor's existence or disregarding its legitimate rights. For the Horn of Africa, the choice remains clear: dialogue over confrontation, cooperation over coercion, and respect for sovereignty over dangerous ambitions. Peace is built through mutual agreement. Sovereignty is not negotiable. #Eritrea #Egypt #AntónioGuterres #HornOfAfrica #RedSea #Sovereignty #InternationalLaw #PeaceAndSecurity #Ethiopia @antonioguterres @EgyptForeignMin @UN

United Nations Day: Remarks by Ms. Nahla Valji @nahlav , United Nations Resident Coordinator in #Eritrea 23 October 2026 | Asmara On #UNDay in Asmara, UN Resident Coordinator Nahla Valji highlighted the partnership with Eritrea under the 2022–2026 Cooperation Framework: immunization coverage held above 95%, facility-based births rose to 85%, and progress was recorded in inclusive education, climate resilience, water access, and livelihoods. She stressed that these advances belong first and foremost to Eritrea, with the UN accompanying national efforts. By the end of 2025, 992 villages—more than one-third of the country—had been recognized as free from FGM. Looking ahead, the next Cooperation Framework will be signed before year-end, built on national ownership and Eritrea’s emphasis on self-reliance. She noted the challenging global context of proliferating conflicts and constrained development resources, while celebrating local innovation, young people, and creative initiatives. She closed by quoting Secretary-General António Guterres: “humanity’s future depends on our capacity to advance peace, development, and human rights together,” and thanked the Government, partners, and UN team as she marked her final UN Day in the country. xitter.cf/shabait/status/2113928…
United Nations Day: Remarks by Ms. Nahla Valji, United Nations Resident Coordinator in Eritrea 23 October 2026 | Asmara Excellencies, Distinguished representatives of the Government of the State of Eritrea, Members of the diplomatic community, Colleagues and friends, Good evening, and welcome. It is particularly good to see so many friends and partners of the United Nations here tonight. UN Day gives us a moment each year to step back from our daily work and reflect on our organization. Because the UN is indeed OUR organization. It belongs to we the peoples, to the Member States who govern it, and to each individual whose life is touched by it. We meet in challenging times. Conflicts have proliferated, and we are experiencing more extreme climate events than ever before. While the world seems able to find trillions of dollars for war and militarization, resources for development and humanitarian work have become increasingly constrained. The United Nations is being asked difficult but necessary questions about how we work and where we can make the greatest difference. As we approach the end of our 2022–2026 Cooperation Framework here in Eritrea, it is worth reflecting on what this partnership has contributed to. Led by Government, our partnership in the past years has contributed to routine immunization coverage remaining above 95 per cent. Facility-based births increased from 81 to 85 per cent. Some 87,000 children received support for inclusive learning and early education, and thousands of children with disabilities received assistive devices or rehabilitation services. We have also seen progress in climate resilience, water access and livelihoods, and in national planning and statistical capacity. Behind these numbers are health workers keeping services running, teachers working with children, farmers adapting to difficult conditions and communities leading change. This progress belongs first and foremost to Eritrea. The role of the United Nations has been to accompany it. We have also learned that working together makes a difference. By the end of 2025, 992 villages, more than one-third of villages in Eritrea, had been recognised as free from female genital mutilation. That took years, and it took communities, leadership, national institutions, international partners, and many parts of the UN system working together. Before the end of this year, the UN and Government will sign the next Cooperation Framework. The draft reflects the Government's ambition and vision for the next five years of development in this country, and it builds on what we have learned together. Resources will continue to be a challenge. We will need to be disciplined about where the UN can make a meaningful contribution, work as one system, and help Eritrea widen access to financing, expertise and partnership in a way that respects national ownership and the country's longstanding emphasis on self-reliance. There is a great deal still to do, and a strong foundation on which to build. Many of you saw some of that foundation in the Innovation Corridor as you arrived. Later this evening you will be the judges in our very own ‘Trashion Show’ showcasing creativity and sustainability. And if you look around this evening you will see the incredible work of artist Dawit Berhane. We are truly surrounded by talent tonight. As part of our UN Day events, a discussion was held last week on artificial intelligence, and an important point surfaced: innovation has to begin with real needs, and technology matters only when people can shape and use it in ways that work for them. The young people with us tonight show there is no shortage of ideas or creativity in Eritrea. I would like to give a special word of thanks to Salah Ahmedin, Chairman of NUEYS, and his team, whose partnership carried this initiative beyond Asmara to young people across all six regions of Eritrea. Ladies and Gentlemen, in this moment all of us hope for peace and stability across our region, and for the conditions that allow countries and their people to focus on development and opportunity. Let me end on a personal note. This is my last UN Day in Eritrea. There are still some months to go, so this is not a goodbye, but I do want to take this moment to say thank you. To the Government of the State of Eritrea, thank you for your leadership and partnership throughout. To our diplomatic and development partners, thank you for your engagement and support. To my colleagues across the UN Country Team, resident and non-resident, thank you for continuing to find ways to work together and deliver. This has been a difficult year for parts of our UN family. Budget cuts have closed offices and cost some colleagues their jobs. These are real consequences for people who have given sometimes a lifetime of commitment and expertise to this work. To those colleagues, thank you for your work and your commitment to the values of the UN. And lastly a special thanks to my Resident Coordinators Office team who work tirelessly every day. I feel deeply proud of the partnership we have built here, with the Government, with our partners and across the UN system. It has taken trust and a shared commitment to finding practical ways to support Eritrea's development, and I am confident we have put in place a strong foundation for the next five years. Let me conclude by quoting our United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres, who in his message for UN Day said ‘humanity’s future depends on our capacity to advance peace, development, and human rights together’ So, tonight, let us celebrate the partnership we have built, the people who make it possible, and the opportunities that lie ahead. Thank you for being here, and I wish you all a very happy United Nations Day.

Debunking the myth: #Ethiopia did not lose access to the #RedSea simply because #Eritrea became independent in 1993. Ethiopia chose to use Djibouti ports instead. In 1997, Ethiopia warned Assab authorities in writing that it would stop using the port over unfavorable business conditions. It then shifted trade towards Djibouti. It should be noted here that the accusation of "unfavorable business conditions" was tied to Eritrea delinking its fiscal and monetary policies from Ethiopia by issuing its own currency, the Eritrean Nakfa. There is a fundamental difference between being landlocked, having access to maritime trade, and possessing sovereign ownership of a coastline. The history of Eritrea and Ethiopia illustrates why this distinction matters. Access is not ownership. Choosing to stop using a port does not confer a right to own another country's coastline. 🇪🇷 Eritrean sovereignty is not negotiable. Source: reliefweb.int/report/eritrea…

Ambassador Estifanos (@AmbassadorEstif ) shared with young Japanese students from the Africa Culture Seminar at Seisa International High School’s Tachikawa Learning Center—who visited the Eritrean Embassy—a powerful model for building people-to-people bridges: Eritrean musician and soldier Major Ghirmay Hadgu, who served in the Korean War (1951–1953). Major Ghirmay brought the Japanese genre Enka home to Eritrea and Ethiopia—deeply sentimental ballads rooted in traditional Japanese music—and blended it with local modern music throughout his career. Through music, he built a living bridge connecting #Eritrea, #Ethiopia, and #Japan. Ambassador Estifanos was inspired to attend and learn from the presentation by SEISA International High School students on building similar cultural bridges between Japan and Eritrea.

Mengistu believed his enormous Soviet-equipped army could preserve his rule. In 1991, that illusion collapsed. Is Abiy Ahmed repeating the same fatal mistake? Imported drones, tanks and foreign military support cannot substitute for political legitimacy or national unity. History offers a warning. Will Abiy heed it? #Ethiopia #AbiyAhmed #Mengistu #HornOfAfrica
ETHIOPIA’S TWO COLONELS: DIFFERENT ERAS, SIMILAR DESTRUCTION — WILL ABIY AHMED FOLLOW MENGISTU INTO EXILE? … Mengistu sought to defeat Eritrean independence through overwhelming military force, yet his campaign failed... Mengistu was dependent on massive weapons supply courtesy of the Soviet Union and its Eastern Europe allies, Israel and North Korea. Today, Abiy’s emphasis on maritime access has revived fears of confrontation. Ethiopia’s economic interest in sea access cannot justify military coercion against a sovereign neighbor. Peaceful, mutually beneficial agreements—not threats—offer a sustainable path. Abiy is also dependent on massive weapons supply from the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Reading from a teleprompter on Ethiopia's TV yesterday, the Potemkin Party's Prime Minister disparages Eritrea's economic development, and particularly its manufacturing sector, as "stagnant and in decline" since its independence in 1991. The speech/interview was also laced with his three-year old threats of war of aggression and invasion unless Eritrea succumbs to his delusional projects of "sovereign access to the sea" and "Ethiopian naval presence" in Eritrea's coastal territory; packaged this time round in different pretexts, language, and format. To revert to his disparaging discourse on Eritrea's economic performance and potential: 1. In the past 35 years, Ethiopia was the beneficiary of a whopping 80-90 billion US dollars of international multilateral and bilateral assistance; 2. Ethiopia went through two rounds of WB sponsored debt-cancellation rounds, as well as repetitive financial bailouts from the IMF and other donors. For almost ten years in -between, Ethiopia's dire humanitarian conditions were alleviated by the international community under a customized "social safety net" and other similar "intensive care" financial antidotes. 3. The current regime itself has received over 30 billion US dollars in international assistance in the last 8 years alone. In addition, its tattering economy is being resuscitated by another IMF bailout programme to the tune of 3.1 billion US dollars. 4. And yet, as the figures below illustrate, more than 68% Ethiopians are living under extreme poverty while close to 30 million people require urgent humanitarian relief assistance at this point in time. 5. In as far as the 300 manufacturing plants that the PP leader alludes to, these were old factories built during Italy's colonization of Eritrea from 1889 until 1941. The British Military Administration dismantled many of those factories - including the dock in Massawa - as "war booty" and sold them to other foreign countries. The occupationist Haile Selassie regime, in its turn, dismantled many of the remaining factories and transferred them to Ethiopia especially during the imposed "Federation" period. 6. After its hard-won independence in 1991, Eritrea registered rapid economic growth in the first seven years (WB reports). Imposed wars and unwarranted sanctions thereafter naturally affected the pace and magnitude of its economic trajectory. 7. These externalities have nothing to do with Eritrea's open investment and economic policies and visions. 8. And in any case, Eritrea has the abundant economic endowments (blue economy, extractive industry, educated and industrious human capital, and a civilized culture that celebrates religious and ethnic diversity within robust national unity) to excel and achieve its aspirations of rapid and sustainable growth in a conducive and enduring regional climate of peace and stability. 9. Finally, Ethiopia itself could do much better, extricate itself from debilitating dependency, and use its abundant resources for real development if its leaders abandon sectarian policies of division and polarization that incubate perennial cycles of internal turmoil as well as intertwined acts of regional destabilization in pursuit of delusional and expansionist projects.

The @guardian choice of language in its latest article on #Eritrea is revealing. “Repressive”, “secretive”, “authoritarian regime”, “separatist forces”, the article constructs a political narrative before examining the actual dispute. Describing the EPLF as “separatist forces” strips Eritrea's independence struggle of its historical context. Eritrea was an Italian colony, federated with Ethiopia under a UN arrangement, subsequently annexed, and fought a 30-year war for self-determination. Reducing that history to “separatism” is a consequential editorial choice. The Guardian claims that up to one-third of Eritrean-born people live abroad, linking this to allegations of repression and conscription. Where is the independently verified evidence for either claim? What methodology establishes the figure, and what evidence supports the alleged causes of migration? Political allegations and questionable statistics do not become facts simply because they reinforce a particular narrative. Meanwhile, the central issue receives remarkably little scrutiny: How has the UK established that the individuals it wants Eritrea to accept are actually Eritrean nationals? Where are the independently verified identities, authenticated documents and figures distinguishing confirmed citizens from disputed nationality claims? The article also repeats Ethiopia's accusation of an Eritrean military incursion without presenting independent evidence establishing that such an incursion occurred. These are not minor editorial details. They concern historical context, statistical interpretation, verification of nationality and the treatment of unsubstantiated military accusations. The Guardian is entitled to scrutinise Eritrea's government. Its readers are equally entitled to expect rigorous scrutiny of the British and Ethiopian governments' claims. Why does an article about asylum returns devote more effort to characterising Eritrea than establishing the facts at the centre of the dispute?
"#Eritrea is run by an authoritarian regime under Isaias Afwerki... the country hasn't held a national election since independence... in 2001, government shut down all independent newspapers. It is estimated that up to 1/3 of the population lives abroad." theguardian.com/world/2026/o…

Replying to @AbiyAhmedAli
@AbiyAhmedAli and his handlers, enablers and supporters should study #Eritrea’s history before gambling #Ethiopian lives on another war. #Eritrean sovereignty will not buckle under empty bravado, and a foreign-supplied arsenal is no guarantee of reaching #Assab or #Asmara Before boasting of conquest, watch and read Bacha @ButaDubi account: “ተጨፈጨፍን”—“We were slaughtered.” Were his often quoted words. Let that admission answer the salesmen of easy victory. The patrons supplying Prosperity Party with weapons will not fill the graves or answer to the bereaved families. Poor Ethiopian soldiers and their families will bear the cost of ambitions dressed up as national destiny or hallucinatory ambition. How many more lives must be sacrificed before this leadership learns that another country’s coastline is no cure for its failures? #UAEHandsOffTheHorn @SirakBahlbi @Yehdavid @ytmn2 @Sharronyemane @GhideonMusa @MussieSibhatu23 @hadnetkeleta @Ternafi @zebibaberhane @globalezra @KemeyNet @horn_outlook @EmbassyEritrea @biniamb @MFAEthiopia @DahlaKib @EritrawiPodcast @WilliamsRuto @KagutaMuseveni @HassanSMohamud @CyrilRamaphosa @AlsisiOfficial @ymahmoudali @vonderleyen xitter.cf/itseritrea/status/2109…

On 1 October 2026, #Ethiopia expelled 10 #Eritrean diplomats, including personnel accredited to the #AfricanUnion. This goes beyond bilateral relations. It strikes at the sovereign equality of AU member states and their right to representation. Addis Ababa hosts the African Union. Ethiopia does not own it. Eritrea's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has formally challenged the expulsions, citing violations of Article 4(a) of the AU Constitutive Act, Article 15 of the Headquarters Agreement, and Article V of the OAU Convention on Privileges and Immunities. If a host state can effectively exclude another member state's diplomatic representation, is the African Union truly an organisation of sovereign equals, or merely an institution operating at the discretion of its host? The AU's credibility, independence and commitment to its own founding principles are at stake. #Eritrea #Ethiopia #AfricanUnion #Diplomacy #InternationalLaw #HornOfAfrica
#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). shabait.com/2026/10/15/eritr…

ETHIOPIA SEEKS A PRETEXT FOR A WAR IT HAD DECLARED LONG AGO Over the past three years, Ethiopia’s PM has repeatedly vowed to secure “#sovereign #access” to the #Red #Sea through negotiations if possible and by force if necessary. He questioned Eritrea’s very independence and sovereignty. In doing so, he used state institutions, including , but not limited to, Parliament, state media, and official meetings; not to mention his paid digital media mercenaries. His generals have repeatedly boasted that their war would erase the boundary, leaving neither a sovereign #Eritrea nor its government. These are not isolated remarks. They reveal a dangerous pattern of threats against a sovereign state, undermining the #UN #Charter, #international #law, and treaties that govern #territorial #integrity. Abiy’s regime evidently keeps shifting its false accusations: one moment alleging that Eritrea crossed the border, the next claiming that Eritrea arms and supports the Alliance Forces for Survival (AFS). Yet these allegations failed to provide a shred of evidence and remain unconfirmed by independently verified bodies. Such wild accusations cannot substitute for proof and should never be allowed to serve as a pretext for a dangerous and premeditated plan of aggression. To cover up its wild plans, this PP government is struggling to manufacture “evidence” for a #war its leaders have already threatened publicly. The world must not mistake the pretext for the aggressor’s false accusations for evidence and call this aggressor by its name. #EritreaPrevails #StopEthiopianAggression #HandsOffEritrea #StopTheWarOnEthiopians

Abiy Ahmed’s Diplomatic Illusion: What Washington Actually Said #AbiyAhmed took a diplomatic victory lap after his call with #MarcoRubio, celebrating a “very fruitful” conversation, continued US support and a stronger strategic partnership. Washington’s official readout painted a different picture: heightened tensions with #Eritrea, de-escalation, respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, and warnings against further conflict. Not a single mention of Eritrea in Abiy’s statement. Same phone call. Two remarkably different narratives. What Abiy chose to omit is arguably more revealing than what he chose to celebrate. state.gov/releases/office-of… #Ethiopia #USA #USForeignPolicy #Diplomacy #HornOfAfrica #RedSea #Geopolitics #EritreaEthiopia #MarcoRubio #AbiyAhmed

Abiy is wrong on every front—and he’s not the first to follow this misguided path. Unfortunately for him, he has completely discredited himself. Someone needs to remind him to be careful; his over-ambition is becoming reckless. He imagines himself as a reincarnated Menelik II, chasing the old dream of reaching the sea, just as Haile Selassie once did. Now Abiy believes he can revive that ambition and has even declared he is willing to go to war to achieve it. #Ethiopia is once again talking in the language of irredentism and it is isolated. But the world is not buying it. Egypt, Turkey, and the United States have all said no. Abiy has miscalculated spectacularly—he stands isolated. Even the Nobel Prize he once boasted about is now viewed with regret in Europe. Kenya, too, must say no...... A Kenyan expert said.

It must be clearly stated that #Ethiopia - since its inception as a country has never, at any point in history, possessed sovereign access to the #RedSea. The only time it used Eritrean ports was during its illegal #occupation of Eritrea - an occupation rejected by the Eritrean people and defeated through a 30-year protracted struggle for #independence. Eritrea’s #sovereignty and territorial integrity was achieved through enormous sacrifice and is not subject for any negotiation or revision. Any attempt by Ethiopia’s current PP leadership to lay claim to Eritrean land or ports like Assab or any other place for that matter, is not only historically false but also an open violation of international law and the 1963 OAU principle that upholds colonial boundaries. Such reckless rhetoric serves only to destabilize the region and expose the aggressor nature of those who utter it. Eritrea’s sovereignty is not a topic for debate; it is a settled and irreversible reality. #EritreaPrevails #AU

In his address to the House of Peoples Representatives on 28 October 2025, the PP's leader proclaimed: "We did not start building our Navy five years ago (in 2020) to make it float in a small pool of water". Inflammatory declaration of war in what they have termed as "projection of naval power with jurisdiction in Eritrea's southern coastal zone". This wicked war agenda was conceived against the backdrop, and in the immediate aftermath, of the 2018 historic Agreement of Peace and Friendship between the two countries.. Smoking gun that illustrates, beyond any shred of doubt, that the war agenda was long planned by the Potemkin Party whose hallmark remains trite Machiavellian and backstabbing political traits.
