Special Envoy of Egypt Interim President to visit Asmara
Eritrean Foreign Minister Osman Saleh with the former Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi |
Special Envoy of Egypt Interim President to visit Asmara to apprise Eritrean President Isaias Afwerki of developments in Egypt and the region, a senior Eritrean official tweeted today.
The news comes just one week after Ethiopia rejected a proposal that would guarantee Egypt the rights to most of the Nile River’s water, as disagreements cast doubt over future talks about the controversial Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam.
In a recent meeting in Khartoum, Egyptian officials introduced a “principles of confidence-building” document asking Ethiopia to “respect” Sudan and Egypt’s water security, a request Ethiopia has rejected.
Egypt, which receives the lowest annual rainfall in Africa, is concerned the hydropower project would significantly hurt its ability to deliver drinking water to its 85 million citizens.
But Ethiopian officials have cemented their position of late and are in no mood to compromise.
“The Renaissance Dam is here to stay. It is advisable for all actors of the political establishment in Egypt to come to terms with this reality,” said Getachew Reda, a spokesman for Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn.
Egypt says it can not afford to lose even "one drop of water" and has threatened it will use military action if talks fail to convince Ethiopia to stop building the dam, which is expected to be completed by 2017.

They need to use Eritrean ppl again for Nile water.Sorry to be an Eritrean.
ReplyDeleteEthiopians have a right to use their fair share in terms of using the Nile River.Egypt is very greedy.
ReplyDeleteAre you sure you are Ahmed?
ReplyDeleteThe word FAIR is not easy to define. Both the Egyptians and the Woyanes have differing interpreatations of fairness.
ReplyDeleteI don't its important to repost a pic of President who got removed by its military, the article is well written with out the old pic
ReplyDeleteI wish what you ejaculate is true and I wish Eritera accepts to offer it's land and sea to Egypt in order to see you beggars ahiyawoch erased from the surface of the plant, adgi wahid.
ReplyDeleteWhy are we talking about ethiopians? They don't care about us and we don't care about them. If ethiopians want to fight with Egypt, let them fight. It's is not our business. If Egyptians kill all ethiopians, why would we care? Let Egyptians finish those stupid adgis and agames. We may have the same culture with ethiopians but we are not the same ppl. Ethiopians are jst ethiopians just like Egyptians are Egyptians and we eritreans are eritreans. Ethiopians and Egyptians are just like the same africans to us. We don't give a damn about them or about africans. We have our own problem (isaias). Let us all unite to get rid of him from our land.plz my eri ppl let us all forget those ethiopians and Egyptians and let's focus on our country.
DeleteSelam, he's Ethiopian and his definitely not an Ahmed but a Hagos.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Selam
ReplyDeleteBoth Egypt and Ethiopia are two sides of the same coin. Both of them are neo-colonized welfare states who survive of the crumbs of Western Aid.
That being said, if we focus on the facts, it is, not surprisingly, Ethiopia that is causing this. Egypt has asked for an independent panel to investigate the damages this dam will have on their water quota. Ethiopia has rejected this. Ethiopia clearly knows this will hurt Egypt's water quota so they are refusing to let neutral experts in to see how much it will take away from their quota.
Legally speaking, Egypt is in the right. The 1959 accord stipulates Egypt receives the lion share of the water. But as we all know, Ethiopia does not like international law so they will pay the consequences of their stupid actions.
Brother, I do not support weyane pest,but I fully support Ethiopians to have a lion share. Egypt should not have more than 40 present.
ReplyDeleteHi Sharron, I couldn't find a picture of an Eritrean official with the current Egyptian intern president, Adly Mansour, so I used one from Morsi's presidency. I'll gladly update it if anyone can find a picture of an Eritrean official with President Mansour or General Sisi.

ReplyDeleteWar is not good at all.We are peace loving people and why we should let foreigners use our territories for war?
ReplyDeleteWe should never let the united snakes of America or their offspring to use our ports or main land for war.
Yes, we hate TPLF hooligans, but not the Ethiopian peace loving people and the Egyptian.It is only a matter of time, wether TPLF likes or not, one day TPLF will be forced out of Eritrea territoris.
Peace to the people of Africa, death to their greedy enemies.
What do you mean legally speaking?
ReplyDeleteThe agreement between the two colonalists is out of dated long time ago and it is illegal and unacceptable. The so called colonalists agreement is just a joke for me and it is invalid. olonalists do not represent Africans. We shoud have a new agreemt that inculuds everyone.Eritrea, Ethiopia, and some other countries in the region and Ethiopians have a lion's share and it is their primary right to do so.
Peace to the horn.
Welcome to Madote Gebremikhael
ReplyDeleteVery good weyanes cadre. You do not know what you are taking about. Are you trying to lecture us about nikhat and you mentioned 21century aswell .
If it was not for the united snakes of America, TPLF hooligans would have been destroyed long time ago by the Ethiopian people.The butchers of Arbagugu and Bodona, you are not the right person to talk about 21 century and Nikhat. TPLf killed hundreds of thousands of Ethiopians and displaced them from their villages.
Ethiopia is ruled by TPLF who is alienated to their people. Sterilizing and killing innocent people is an act of cowardness. If it was not for Tekeze river,you would have been handed over your country interest to Egypt. That's what you did with Sudan, you handed over 1200km to Sudan for free because you scare the Ethiopian rebels who fight for their own people's freedom.
Shame on you.
You comply with everything that the united snakes ask you to do.you waged war against us because you were told by your masters in the white house.

At that time, Mikhael, Ethiopia was a very good friend with these colonialists. Where was Ethiopia then and not protest the agreement? Honestly, if it was another country, I would´ve lobbied for it to use its God given water as it wishes but Ethiopia? The number 1 tool of colonialists and now neo-colonialists? If a huge revolution doesn´t happen in Ethiopia to change its status as a tool and a beggar nation, I don´t give a damn if Egypt or any other country uses the Nile, even to 100%. Ethiopians don´t and have never shown any empathy or sympathy for my people so why should I show them any empathy? I don´t understand eritreans who lobby and want to help ethiopians as much as they can when ethiopians, generally speaking, want us all dead. I don´t get it.

For your information, Ethiopia did not sign any agreement regarding of Nile river. Everyone should get enough share. We need Tekeze river aswell and it is our fundamental right to use it for irrigation or to generate electricity.we did not sign anything and colonialists can not represent us .Why we should abide by the law of the jungle.i have already said that,If Egypt use its own population as a excuse to have a lion's share then, Egypt should introduce birth control otherwise that so stupid so-called agreement, should have expired long time ago, after Africa liberated.
ReplyDeleteIt will take years and cost billions to build the Dam. For the Egyption Airforce it will be half a days work to destroy it. If/when that happens what is Weyane going to do?! Demand Egypt respect it sovereignty? I hope then the irony isn't lost on them.
ReplyDeleteIf someone has got a pinkeye,it is ok to blame the Eritrean government because he/she has got a pinkeye. Im not saying it is you. If you do not have pinkeye then you can't blame the Eritrean government. Eritrean leaders are just peace loving like the Eritrean and Ethiopian people. Weyane is the main cancer and should be removed from power without delay.
ReplyDeleteAnta tekuan, mind your own business...Our President is our hero and it's a well respected person...unlike yours...so stay out of Eritrean issues and you've no right to talk..Bekaa
ReplyDeleteEgyptian only repeat history.If they start war,we will show them
ReplyDeletewhat they miss.Concerning Eritrea far as the mad man is in Asmera
anything can happen.
So what agame? If you want to show them, go show them. Go to Egyptian forum and tell them what they miss. If you want to discuss about yr dam Go to Egyptian forum and do it there. Wedza komarit wahide agame.
Delete1. You guys talked about colonial agreement which is not signed by ethiopia.
ReplyDelete2. Even the agreement is b/n sudan & Egypt which is sudan offically announced they are happy with ethiopia dam.
3. There is new agreement b/n ethiopia & other 6 Nile upper stream countries.
4. Eritrea should not involve in this otherwise it's going to be historical mistake not only with ethiopia but all upper stream 7 countries.1. You guys talked about colonial agreement which is not signed by ethiopia.

5. Eritrea should act like African country rather act like Arab country.
6. For ethiopia is not new that eritrea action, u did it with Italian by puting 100,000 soldiers fighting ur fellow African brother which shocked the hole Africans that time.
7.finaly I should advice eritrea to look long term gain rather than short one. And don't forget ethiopia always get united when it come Arab or any body for that mater.
Abdu will never let Egyptian enter Eritrea,Muslim- brother hood not well come everywhere ma friend.
