Eritrea was an anomaly in Africa in 2005, when it expelled USAID. On some development indicators, it has fared as well as other countries that have benefited from billions in donor largesse.... https://www.ft.com/content/cc9ddf8b-e36 ... 835c3a7645

DEBUNKED!

His name is Yakob Hailemariam (PhD), an Ethiopian scholar widely criticized for his intellectual dishonesty. He is believed to have misled many Ethiopians with his book "Whose is Assab? / ዓሰብ የማን ናት?", as their arguments often rely on the claims presented in this publication.

You don't need to read his highly inaccurate book, as I've outlined one of his misleading claims here for fact-checking:

Dr. Yakob claimed in this video that

a local Afar Sultanate, which controlled the area at the time, sold a portion of coastal land (there was no port at the time) to the Italian Rubattino Shipping Company without the consent or permission of «Emperor Menelik».

This occurred despite the Emperor's declaration that Ethiopia's frontier extended to the Red Sea.

Now, let me dismantle this claim by presenting facts in chronological order, as that claim forms the foundation of his book's core argument:

➠ In 1869, the local Sultanate sold a piece of coastal land, now known as Assab, to an Italian company called Rubattino Shipping Company.

➠ In 1882, Italy purchased the land from this private shipping company, establishing its first foothold in the region.

➠ Yohannes IV was Emperor from 1871 to 1889.

➠ Menelik became Emperor in 1889, that is 20 years after the Italian shipping company acquired the coastal land and 7 years after Italy took possession of it.

➠ As outlined above, neither Yohannes nor Menelik were in power when the local Sultanate sold the land to the Italian shipping company.

➠ Neither Yohannes nor Menelik ever set foot on the Red Sea coast. Ever!

➠ During this entire period, there was no recognized territory or entity called 'Ethiopia'.

➠ Ethiopia's territorial boundaries were largely established by the time of Menelik's reign, which began in 1889.

Now, help me make sense of his claim. ወፍ የለም!

This intellectually dishonest individual has also made another absurd claim, one so baseless that I won't even bother to embarrass him further.

If Ethiopia's Assab port claim is so solid and could stand in international court, why hasn't any of the past and present regimes tried to claim it legally?

Now, imagine their best argument is based on the fairy tale written by such individuals.

Thomas Keneally's prophetic words have come to pass. We have indeed become an embarrassment to the aid-addict Africans, and upset the world picture!

After Eritrea's Foreign Minister visited Saudi Arabia and delivered a message from President Isaias Afwerki to Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz, a high-level Saudi delegation led by Deputy Foreign Minister Prince Walid, visited Ethiopia, Kenya, and South Sudan.

The UAE is getting kicked out of the HoA.

They told Wedi Beshasha the facts of life to cure him from the hallucinatory infection that makes him, and other idiots of his ilk, cough Assssabbbb! Funny, the way he changed his tune after he returned back to his ghetto!

BTW, the picture reminds me of how Trump handled Zelinsky. That is what happens to beggars!

Ethiopia's Abiy rules out war with Eritrea over Red Sea access

https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/et ... 025-03-20/

March 20, 2025

ADDIS ABABA, March 20 (Reuters) - Ethiopia's Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed said on Thursday that his government would not seek conflict with longtime foe Eritrea over access to the Red Sea, after regional officials and experts warned of a possible war between the Horn of Africa neighbours.

Fears of war https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/et ... 025-03-13/ emerged in recent weeks after Eritrea ordered a nationwide military mobilisation, according to a human rights group, and Ethiopia deployed troops toward the border, diplomatic sources and officials told Reuters.

Ethiopia does not have any intention of engaging in conflict with Eritrea for the purpose of gaining access to the sea,

Abiy said, according to a post by his office on X.

Although access to the Red Sea was an existential matter for landlocked Ethiopia, his government wanted to address it peacefully via dialogue, Abiy added.

Renewed clashes between two of Africa's largest armies would end a historic rapprochement for which Abiy won the Nobel Peace Prize https://www.reuters.com/article/world/e ... KBN1WQ12X/ in 2019 and risk a humanitarian disaster in a region already grappling with fallout from the war in Sudan. https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/su ... 025-03-20/

The rapprochement saw Eritrea back https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/er ... 023-01-28/ Ethiopian federal forces during the 2020-2022 civil war between the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) and Ethiopia's central government, which killed hundreds of thousands of people.

But the neighbours fell out again after Eritrea was frozen out of talks to end that war https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/af ... 022-11-02/ in November 2022.
Since then, the TPLF has split, with both factions seeking control of the post-war interim administration of the Tigray region.

The current interim administration has accused the dissident faction of collaborating with Eritrea, while the dissidents in turn say their rivals have failed to protect Tigrayan interests.

Each side denies the other's allegations.

Abiy told parliament on Thursday the term of the interim administration had been extended for one year, with some amendments. He did not elaborate on whether the changes would include new leadership appointments, a key demand of the dissident faction.

In line with the Pretoria agreement, the interim administration will continue until the next election,

he said, referring to a general election due in 2026.
