Someone who claimed to have an inside info from the Eritrean authorities, says the reason for Abiy’s recent reckless statements/mistreatments in getting port for his government as follow:

This person says, the Eritrean and Abiy’s governments have had an intense few weeks talk and negotiations to iron out a deal for Ethiopia to use Eritrean ports last summer. The Abiy clowns want Eritrea to lease the Assab port and surrounding lands for unknown period that this person couldn’t disclose. Ethiopians want on the lease agreement to include a provision that states Ethiopia reserves the right to build a military base as well as naval base during the term of the lease while still maintaining the free port deal to impo and export goods. Moreover, Eritrea will not have any military or naval base within 20-30 km of Ethiopian forces for “safety” of the Ethiopian forces. In return, Ethiopia will split the revenue of Ethiopian Airlines in half as well as providing electricity in fair market price and other “incentives”. Of course, this was no starter for Eritrean government who dearly holds its independence and territorial integral to its heart. The Abiy clowns have no interest of using the Assab, Tio or Massawa ports for the main purpose of importing/exporting goods only; as they have been doing in Djibouti. In short, their goal seems to be to deny, mainly the Amara region not to have a short access of trade by using Massawa port. These clowns want everything that comes and goes from other Ethiopian regions to pass through them, thus, having exclusively using Assab port would achieve their goal.

No one really knows why the talk has failed really and either party never wants to tell their respective people why it failed. I personally think the story makes sense, knowing Abiy hates the Amaras dearly and doesn’t want the Amaras to benefit from free access port service to Massawa nor to have a border trade between the Amara region and Amaras’ northern neighbor, Eritrea. He has demonstrated this by shutting down the Humer/OmHajer coriander. Remember , massawa port is more developed and much more closer to the Amara and other northern regions. I think this clown knows the Eritrean government will never agree for its former arch enemy country (Ethiopia) with atrocities on its book would allow any kind of military base in its territory. It is like allowing Hamas a military base in Tel Aviv. If a war starts b/n them the enemy is already deep on your territory. Abiy is for Abiy not for Ethiopia. When a true Ethiopian leaders come to power, soon, I have no doubt that the Eritrean government will go an extra mile to accommodate them as long as they don’t come with ill intentions and a sickness venture their former leaders infected with. We know, a happy neighbor is a good neighbor and vs.

Exactly

Abiy wishes to maintain a monopoly

What the person said makes perfect sense. Eritrea will never sacrifice its fundamental principles of peace and human dignity by being a party to Banda Abiy's wicked plans that hurt the Amhara people. When Eritrea enters into negotiations it makes clear that its core values, deeply held beliefs, as well as its sovereignty, are non-negotiable. This makes me very proud of being an Eritrean.

So the reason why amhara and Eritreans are together against tigray is to have direct border between them that connects massawa thorough western tigray mainly inhabited by Amharas . Poor tigray are removed from the way. That's why they are supporting abiy because they think he is less evil compare to Eritrea and Amhara. Interesting.

Eritrea has nothing against Tigray and its people. You agames always equate your people with those of the criminal TPLF. When will you learn that TPLF is a curse to you people? Having sacrificed 1.5 million isn’t enough to learn a lesson? What does ot take? 3 million sacrifice?

As long as Tigray is ruled by the remnants of TPLF, yes, Eritrea will never deal with Tigray and will not allow to be a part of any deal. Those who have a history of violating the territorial integrity of Eritrea are permanently banned from touching the soil of Eritrea.
