Why Axumezana disagrees with PM Meles?

Post by Axumezana » 19 Oct 2023, 22:30

1- Why he did not raise this issue prior to giving recognition to Eritrea? That was perhaps the biggest error
of his political carrier.
2- He used similar theoretical argument to keep Isaias in Power and Tigrayans ultimately faced genocide for lack of timely strategic action from his side.

3 - He wrongly used 19th century agreement to define
the border with Eriteria . Those agreements were null and void due to the invasion of Italy during Emperor Haile Selassie time. Ethiopian borders were redefined after the 2nd world war and the issue related with Acess to Red Sea was discussed at that time and in principle agreed by UN and the super powers. That was one of the reasons Eritrea was confederated with Ethiopia.

4- Currently Eriteria has invaded Ethiopia and any previous agreements including the Algieres Agreement is null and void

5- If what he said was true , even he did not have the right to dam the Abay river since Emperor Minilk had signed with the British not build a dam on the Abay river

6 - Meles had a soft heart for Eritrea and Tigrayans and Ethiopians have paid the price for his treason

7. The agreement between Isaias and Abiy is not binding as it was not ratified by the Ethiopian Parliament.
