Aby's argument infavor of Ethiopia of having a secured access or ownership of a sea outlet as indispensable matter to Ethiopia's existence could be valid argument if it is done in a good faith.
Aby needs to present his ambition in a very responsible way, as this matter is a very delicate matter. It is delicate matter because of past Ethiopian leaders actions against Eritrea to illegally occupy its redsea.
Now Eritrea is a sovereign nation and it has a sovereign right to determine how to run its portion of the redsea. Historical justification to coerce any nation to give up its sovereign right is a non-starter. Aby went back as far as the axumite kingdom land and sea possessions that encompasses current Yemen and even part of Somalia to prove Ethipia's right access to sea based on historical justification. Does it mean, he will present his demand for access to the sea to those countries as well? Or force small Eritrea to willingly or unwillingly accept his demands?
Aby is better served by presenting his case to Eritrean Government in a peaceful manner and also put on the table his offer and make his case that his offer is a win-win deal for both nations.
Aby flaunted a very plausible deal in exchange to a secured access or ownership of a portion of rhe redsea. I am sure, PIA leadership will not outright reject those offers. For example Aby's offer of 30% of Renaissance dam in exchange for secured access to the sea could be a win-win situation for both countries because, it would secure Eritrea's energy needs for its present and future plans and also may be guarantee a lasting peace between the two nations. This deal should even go further- i.e, both countries could sign a security pact to jointly protect the redsea. The Arabs have ambition of turning the redsea into an "Arab lake " and neither nation could afford to.let that happen.
Not only access to the sea but an economic union of two sovereign nation should be seriously considered.
These negotiations could be fruitful for both nations as long as they are conducted in a good faith.
Peace and prosperity to Ethipia and Eritrea!!

Re: Is Aby's Desire an access or ownership of a sea outlet?
Abiy's use of illogical fallacies in his speech is designed to appeal to the emotions of the Neo-colonial powers that are increasingly unnerved by the close relationship between China and Eritrea, which signals the African continent is slipping further into Beijing's sphere of influence.
The አራዳ Abiy knows the war profiteers, the IMF and the World Bank are only motivated to approve and release more loans to a debt-ridden country when it escalates its rhetoric for a military confrontation. That is music to their ears.
In all honesty, and I say this confidently, a country that is hanging by a loose thread, and on the verge of implosion, cannot be a threat to another country but to itself. Lets hope his አራዳነት prevails to save the country in tatters.

What kind of argument is that? Which self-respecting government would give ownership of its territory to another country. For your information allowing access and allowing ownership is two different thing.
To everyone who genuinely trusted him including me that is, to our greatest surprise his credences are falling or has already fallen flatt on the ground.

And he quotes Alula, the man viscerally hated by every Eritrean to this day.
