Attempting to create a schism between the Eritrean ppl/govt & those in the diaspora by calling them "the great diaspora" to alienate them, is simply, a laughable try.
Infact, it's an insult to our intelligence.
It's actually amazing he took the time to tweet about Eritrea, when the world is in the brink of ww3. It shows, the obsession.
His origins being Hungarian he should be careful not to make light of the brutality in the gulags of Stalin, just to score a political point against the Eritrean govt.
Western scholars estimate the total number of deaths in the Gulag ranged from 1.2 to 1.7 million during the period from 1918 to 1956.

Actually, Obama is as criminal as any of the mentioned (and many unmentioned Western) anti-people leaders. He praised the then Ethiopian leaders, aka Weyane, as "democratically" elected leaders when he knows that was a lie. He also admitted that his nΒ‘gga administration was working to entice the Eritrean youth to illegally cross international borders with a strong pull factor of promising them the Biblical mana after he illegally sanctioned Eritrea on fabricated charges. We'll never forget!

HOW THE UNITED STATES, GREAT BRITAIN & THE U.N. GENERAL ASSEMBLY 390(A)V CHANGED THE FATE OF ERITREA IN 1950.
Contributions by: @MicaelAsghedom @HizbawiGinbar1 @Nakfa23 @PLPSD @peradizoking
PLEASE READ this thread, about the annexation of Eritrea! 
CASE AND APPEAL!
In Africa, the United Nations was assisting the former Italian colonies of Libya, Eritrea and Somaliland to achieve independence. Through the Trusteeship System and the Charter provisions relating to other Non-Self-Governing Territories, the United Nations offered the Administering Powers and the peoples under their jurisdiction the best opportunity for peaceful progress towards co-operation for mutual welfare. In September 1950, the Eritreans case was submitted to the General Assembly of the U.N.
The general assembly, chose a temporary committee to study the case. The representatives of Eritrea were invited to submit their views. The Soviet Union
PROPOSED INDEPENDENCE, but Great Britain
and the United States
REJECTED IT.
The United States
proposed Eritrea
be federated with Ethiopia
, under the protection of the Ethiopian crown. Ibrahim Sultan and Woldeab Woldemariam who represented the Independence Block, rejected the American proposal.
Both submitted strong warning by stating Eritreans do not allow their country to be wiped out of the world map, and will not be yoked with Ethiopia. They called, for an absolute Eritrean independence.
By resolution 289 A (IV), adopted at the fourth session on Nov 17 1950, the General Assembly, among other things, established the UN Commission for Eritrea to ascertain more fully the wishes of the inhabitants of Eritrea and the means of promoting their future welfare.
The Commission was to prepare a report and to submit proposals, so that the matter might be considered by the General Assembly at its fifth session.
The Interim Committee of the General Assembly was asked, to consider the Commission's report and to submit its conclusions to the fifth session of the Assembly. When the commission finished the report, it came to three opposing conclusions.
Pakistan
and Guatemala
, proposed independence. Burma
And South Africa
, proposed federation with Ethiopia
.
Norway
proposed the highlands, Semhar, and the Dankalia to be United with Ethiopia
, and the lowlands should remain under British
control but later, by a plebiscite, be joined with the Sudan or Ethiopia
.
Ibrahim Sultan, gave the following prophetic words at the U.N.
:
Even from ancient times, Eritrea was never under the control of Ethiopia. Did not the popular uprisings start against them [Ethiopians] so that the country [Eritrea] would not be under their control? If you comprehend the evidence submitted, are you contemplating to join Eritrea in a Federation with the historical enemy? Why are we being denied, the same natural right of nations to be independent? Why are we being denied, the same rights bestowed upon Libya & Somalia? If a wrong decision is going to be taken, for all of the forced steps we take to oppose the decision, fight for our rights, gain our freedom, safeguard our survival, the members of this committee will be responsible for any unrest or turmoil that erupts in east Africa.
The paragraph above predicts, the genocide that will ensue on 180,000+ Eritreans in 39 years by 2 Ethiopian regime. These evil acts caused the Eritrean People to fight for the liberation of Eritrea starting in 1961 & would last 30 years, and claim over 60,000+ Eritrean Fighters.
THE DECISION OF UNGA 390(A)V
On December 2, 1950, the General Assembly of the UN adopted the Federal Agreement that was proposed by the United States, Great Britain and its followers. Based on what was submitted, 46 countries voted for the Federation and 10 opposed it. The decision stated Eritrea will have its domestic independence and internal government, but would be united with Ethiopia through a Federal Arrangement.
A Federal Arrangement usually takes place between two or more equal countries, and it is done through a free-will decision of the parties. The countries that accept the Federal Arrangement set up a common foreign, defense, economic, and other structures that would enhance their common goals. They administer, their internal affairs. In the Eritrean case, the opposite plan was decided.
It was not decided that Eritrea be an independent and free country, but to be yoked under the Ethiopian crown, which was a deformed type of arrangement.
Before the implantation of the Federal Arrangement, Dr. Eduardo Anze Matienzo of Bolivia
was designated as the UN commissioner for Eritrea, by the UN General Assembly & was given the task of drafting a Constitution for Eritrea in consultation with the groups concerned.
βThe groups concerned"... the Government of Ethiopia
, the inhabitants of Eritrea
, the local officials of the Administering Authority & the United Kingdom
set up the first election for the Eritrean Assembly.
According to revealed secret documents, the then US Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, famously declared that the Federal Arrangement was planned to maintain American interest by ignoring Eritrean justice.
Mr. Dulles said the following:
From the point of view of justice, the opinions of the Eritrean people must receive consideration. Nevertheless, the strategic interest of the United States in the Red Seas basin and considerations of security and world peace make it necessary that the country [Eritrea] to be linked with our ally, Ethiopia.
In September 1952, the constitution was ratified by Emperor Haile Selassie. He cut a tape on the boundary between Eritrea
and Ethiopia
on 3rd October 1952 to establish the federation, but he wasnβt finished yet. The Emperor was so determined that Eritrea would be fully incorporated into Ethiopia, he made Amharic the official language in place of Arabic and Tigrinya, ended the use of the Eritrean flag, imposed censorship and moved businesses and nice things out of Eritrea.

Their multi million dollar propaganda effort that persisted over the past 2 decades aimed at keeping the Diaspora Eritreans detached from their home country, did not work as planned, therefore Tibor Nagy resorting to lying only amounts to conceding defeat.
