# Bring Back Our Access to Red Sea! Access to the Red Sea is a Security Requirement for Ethiopia - lesson from Russia!
Posted: 26 Apr 2022, 14:31
As illustrated below Russia has been occupying territories that are not recognized by the UN for the last 30 years ( the time USSR was disintegrated), while Ethiopia never taken any action to free itself from the Red Sea blockage that was imposed on it since 1991, by the strategic error of the TPLF/ EPRDF government, the colonial powers and our strategic enimies that work against Ethiopia behind the curtain for Egypt.
Borders are artificial boundaries established through warfare, colonization or mutual agreements between countries and are subject to dynamic change from time time due changes on the geopolitical environment such as change of priorities of countries, security risks and power of balance between neigbours. As God has never stopped creation, similarly countries will never stop changing boundaries!
Since Eritrea has invaded Ethiopia/Tigray starting November 2020 all previous agreements with Eritrea are null and void. Eritrea has also refused to vacate after being asked by the UN and the international community, and Ethiopia has the self defence right to reverse the agression and secure access to the Red Sea as shown in the link below.Ultimately the boundary between Ethiopia has to be negotiated and delimited with the Post- Isaias government of Eritrea.

Russian occupied territories !
Russian-occupied territories[1] are the lands outside of Russia's internationally recognized borders which have been designated by the United Nations and most of the international community as under a Russian military occupation. They consist of the territories of Transnistria (taken from Moldova); Abkhazia and South Ossetia (taken from Georgia); and some part of the territory of Ukraine. Additionally, the four southernmost Kuril Islands are considered by Japan and several other countries to be occupied by Russia.
