(Egypt thru D J Trump will try to make a deal with Ethiopia by throwing Issaias Afeworki away and handing Ethiopia the Assab port and access to the sea, thru Christopher Landau.
Egypt is trying to sell off Eritrea, as if it owns Issaias Afeworki.
It is unlikely Abiy Ahmed will accept any deal with Egypt that gives away its ownership and sovereignty over the Blue Nile river. Sooner or later, under issaias Afeworki, Eritrea will die a slow death, therefore, Ethiopia may not need a blessing from any country.)
The news below is attributable to Principal Deputy Spokesperson Tommy Pigott of US State Department:
Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau will travel to Egypt and will then travel with Commander of U.S. Africa Command General Dagvin Anderson to Ethiopia, Kenya, and Djibouti January 24-February 1. In Cairo, Deputy Secretary Landau will engage U.S. companies operating and investing in Egypt.
