Its responsibility includes examining authenticated evidence, discouraging military escalation, and reinforcing respect for the Algiers Agreement, the EEBC determination, and the 2018 Jeddah commitments.

THREE SCENARIOS FACING COLONEL ABIY AHMED’S POTEMKIN PARTY REGIME AND ITS TIGRAYAN ENABLERS By Simon K. Hagos The political and security landscape in the Horn of Africa is entering a critical phase. Ethiopia’s Bigwig Colonel Abiy Ahmed and his Potemkin Party regime face difficult choices as tensions with Eritrea and internal political instability continue to shape the region. For those Tigrayan political actors who have aligned themselves with or enabled Abiy’s political agenda, the coming period may prove equally consequential. Three possible scenarios illustrate the choices confronting this political alliance.

THE UAE’S BID FOR UN POWER A STATE ACCUSED OF WAR CRIMES SHOULD NOT LEAD THE INSTITUTIONS MEANT TO STOP THEM By David Yeh …International human rights organizations and diplomatic opponents argue that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) should not hold prominent United Nations positions due to allegations of war crimes, human rights violations, and actions that directly undermine the UN’s foundational mission. … The UAE has actively promoted Lana Nusseibeh, Minister of State and former UAE Permanent Representative to the UN, as a potential late-stage candidate to become the next UN Secretary General. The Profile: Nusseibeh gained widespread international recognition during the UAE’s 2022–2023 tenure on the UN Security Council, balancing delicate diplomacy such as condemning Hamas’s October 7 attacks while simultaneously criticizing Israel’s subsequent military actions in Gaza.

ABIY AHMED’S EXPANSIONIST AMBITIONS: A THREAT TO PEACE IN THE HORN OF AFRICA By Ibrahim A Ibrahim When Abiy came to power in 2018, Eritrea extended a hand of peace and embraced historic reconciliation. Eritrea hoped the new Ethiopian leadership would usher in cooperation, mutual respect, and peaceful coexistence. Instead, early hopes have given way to renewed distrust and mounting tensions. …Most alarming is Ethiopia’s growing emphasis on securing Red Sea access through Assab, Eritrea’s sovereign port.

ETHIOPIA AT THE EDGE OF DISINTEGRATION Abiy Ahmed’s Politics of War, Foreign Intervention, and the Threat to the Horn of Africa By Ahmed Ibrahim Ethiopia stands at a dangerous crossroads, and pretending otherwise serves neither Ethiopians nor their neighbors. This is a country of immense human resources, and enormous economic potential, yet it has spent much of the past several decades moving from one armed confrontation to another while political divisions have hardened and relations with neighboring states have become increasingly uncertain.

THE RED SEA GAMBLE: ABIY AHMED’S EXPANSIONIST OVERREACH The most dangerous conflicts rarely begin with the first bullet. They begin when a political idea makes aggression sound reasonable. Ethiopia’s recent Red Sea rhetoric does exactly that. What should be a practical discussion about trade access has been recast as a national grievance, a historical wound, and a question of destiny. That shift is dangerous because Eritrea’s independence, borders, and territorial integrity are not unresolved matters. International agreements, treaties, and legal processes have affirmed them. The issue, therefore, is not whether Ethiopia needs access to the sea. The issue is whether Ethiopia’s leadership is willing to pursue that access without violating a sovereign neighbor’s rights.

ERITREA’S RESTRAINT IS NOT WEAKNESS: THREATEN ASSAB, AND FACE THE CONSEQUENCES …There comes a point when patience ceases to serve peace and begins to be mistaken for permission. Eritrea is approaching that point. For years, Eritreans have been subjected to a seemingly endless procession of speeches, lectures, historical inventions, strategic theories, warnings, and increasingly provocative declarations about the Red Sea and Assab. …“Mark our words: Eritrea has exercised extraordinary restraint. For years, it has listened to increasingly provocative rhetoric, threats, insinuations, and manufactured historical arguments about the Red Sea without responding in kind. But restraint must never be confused with weakness, and silence must never be interpreted as surrender….” – Sirak Kifle Read more: redseabeacon.com/eritreas-re… by David Yeh #FightAbiysAggression #RespectEritreasSovereignty #Enough2PPsWarmongering #UAEStopWarFinancing #UAEBloodInYourHands #AfricanUnion @hawelti @shabait @EmbassyEritrea @hadnetkeleta @SirakBahlbi @Ghidewon @EliasAmare @GhideonMusa @Ternafi @DahlaKib @YehDavid @AlulaFre @KemeyNet @FarahMaalimM @Landofcandoppl @PMEthiopia @MFAEthiopia @MofaSudan @MOFASomalia @MfaEGYPT @_AfricanUnion @StateDept @AJEnglish @BBCWorld @AFP @TheEconomist @thenation @PressTV @Telegraph @nytimes @UN @Sec_Council @dwnews @tesfanews @TheReporterET @gulf_news

ABIY AHMED AND GANG TRYING TO REACH THE ROOF ARE DROPPING ETHIOPIA Ethiopia’s Assab Gamble and the Perils of Strategic Overreach There is an old Ethiopian proverb: “የቆጡን አወርድ ብላ የብብቷን ጣለች“ “Reaching for the shelf, she lost what was in her grasp.” A country already struggling with war, political fragmentation, economic hardship, displacement, and deepening mistrust among its peoples is being encouraged to look beyond its borders for a prize that does not belong to it. Instead of repairing what has been damaged at home, Ethiopia’s leadership has elevated sovereign access to the Red Sea—and increasingly the question of sovereign control over a coastline belonging to another state—into a supposed matter of national destiny.

A PEACE PRIZE IS NO LICENSE FOR WAR A Nobel Peace Prize is not a lifetime certificate of good conduct, diplomatic armor against criticism, or immunity from accountability. It is a responsibility and, more importantly, a public commitment to the principles for which the prize was awarded. For Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, that responsibility carries particular significance because he received the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize largely for his initiative to end the long state of hostility between Ethiopia and Eritrea. His leadership today must therefore be measured against the promise of peace that brought him international recognition.

On 1 October 2026, #Ethiopia expelled 10 #Eritrean diplomats, including personnel accredited to the #AfricanUnion. This goes beyond bilateral relations. It strikes at the sovereign equality of AU member states and their right to representation. Addis Ababa hosts the African Union. Ethiopia does not own it. Eritrea's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has formally challenged the expulsions, citing violations of Article 4(a) of the AU Constitutive Act, Article 15 of the Headquarters Agreement, and Article V of the OAU Convention on Privileges and Immunities. If a host state can effectively exclude another member state's diplomatic representation, is the African Union truly an organisation of sovereign equals, or merely an institution operating at the discretion of its host? The AU's credibility, independence and commitment to its own founding principles are at stake. #Eritrea #Ethiopia #AfricanUnion #Diplomacy #InternationalLaw #HornOfAfrica
#Eritrea: Ministry of Foreign Affairs Urges AU to Restore Eritrea’s Representation at its Headquarters (Similar Letter Sent to UNECA) *"... The decision of the Ethiopian Government - to expel Eritrea's Permanent Representative and the entire diplomatic staff assigned to participate in the AU - constitutes a grave violation of the Constitutive Act; and, the Headquarters Agreement between the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and the African Union...". *"... In light of the foregoing, Eritrea urges the policy organs of the AU to take immediate corrective measures to restore Eritrea's rightful representation at the Headquarters of the Union to ensure its full participation in the activities of the Union as a sovereign and equal member, in strict adherence to the Constitutive Act; the Headquarters Agreement; and, the General Convention". (The Letter also underlines that Ethiopia had in fact closed, without any formal announcement, its Embassy in Eritrea much earlier on 8 August 2026). shabait.com/2026/10/15/eritr…

RUBIO SAID “RESPECT THE SOVEREIGNTY AND TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY OF YOUR NEIGHBORS”, ABIY IS SPINNING LIES How Abiy Ahmed Turned Washington’s Warning on Territorial Integrity into Another Exercise in Red Sea Spin There is something almost audacious about taking a diplomatic message centered on sovereignty, territorial integrity, and de-escalation and presenting it to the public primarily as an assurance of support. Yet that is the impression Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed sought to create following his October 14 telephone conversation with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio. … The real significance of the October 14 Rubio–Abiy conversation lies not in whether the exchange was cordial or whether Washington intends to continue working with Ethiopia. Neither would be surprising. What matters is the striking gap between the impression Abiy sought to create afterward and the principles Washington reportedly chose to emphasize.

OPEN ONE BORDER, OPEN THEM ALL: ETHIOPIA’S RED SEA CLAIM AND AFRICA’S OLDEST RULE In recent days Ethiopia has accused Eritrea, before the UN Security Council, of military aggression. Eritrea denies entering Ethiopian territory, calling the accusation a pretext for war. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed insists Ethiopia must have sovereign coastline on Red Sea by any means necessary. … The crisis did not begin this week. In October 2023, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed described access to the Red Sea as an existential issue for Ethiopia, and relations with Eritrea have deteriorated since. Over the next two years, the demand returned in speeches, interviews, and addresses to parliament.

THE RED LINE OF ERITREAN SOVEREIGNTY: ETHIOPIA’S RED SEA AMBITION AND THE THREAT TO REGIONAL PEACE The greatest danger in the Horn of Africa today is not a misunderstanding between Eritrea and Ethiopia. It is the growing attempt to make Ethiopia’s ambitions appear normal, reasonable, and even inevitable, while quietly placing Eritrea’s sovereignty on the negotiating table. That must be rejected clearly. Eritrea’s sovereignty over Assab, Massawa, the Dahlak Archipelago, and its entire Red Sea coastline is not an open question. It is not a historical dispute waiting for a new settlement. It is a legally settled matter, confirmed by history, international agreements, treaties, Eritrea’s internationally recognized independence, and the final, binding rulings that followed Ethiopia’s aggression.

ERITREAN DOCUMENT CIRCULATED TO UNSC MEMBER STATES ON 13 OCTOBER IN RESPONSE TO “ETHIOPIA’S NOTE ON CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS” OF 11 OCTOBER 2026 From Shabait.com Over the past three years, the Government of Ethiopia has sustained and progressively intensified its unprovoked war agenda against Eritrea under the rubric of acquiring “Sovereign access to the sea, through negotiations if possible and force if necessary”, in violation of the UN Charter and the 2018 Peace and Friendship Agreement between the two countries. Ethiopia’s acts of aggression and destabilization include the pronounced establishment of a Naval Force with jurisdiction over and strategic depth in Eritrea’s southern coastal region. … There is no good faith dispute between Eritrea and Ethiopia.

ERITREA’S SOVEREIGNTY: NATIONAL UNITY, ECONOMIC RESILIENCE, AND STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS Eritrea’s sovereignty, territorial integrity, and internationally recognized borders are the hard-won achievements of a people who endured decades of struggle and extraordinary sacrifice to secure their independence. These achievements cannot be subjected to unilateral territorial demands, threats of military coercion, or attempts to undermine Eritrea’s existence as an independent state. …Eritrea’s long-term sovereignty and national security rest upon mutually reinforcing foundations: its historical capacity for national resistance, internationally recognized sovereign rights, national unity, economic resilience, and strategic regional partnerships. Together, these foundations constitute a comprehensive strategy for deterring aggression, protecting independence, and promoting lasting peace and stability in the Horn of Africa.

THE PERIL OF PANDORA’S BOX Ethiopia’s Quest for Sovereign Maritime Access and the Red Line of Eritrean Sovereignty There is a dangerous moment in the life of a state when a perceived national interest becomes an argument for overriding the rights of another. In the Horn of Africa, the debate over Ethiopia’s sovereign access to the Red Sea risks becoming precisely such a moment. What begins as a question of geography, trade, and economic development takes on an altogether different character when maritime access is framed in terms of historical entitlement, territorial revision, or the threat or use of force.

THE MACHINERY OF HATE: HOW ADDIS ABABA IS SELLING ETHIOPIA A WAR Before the first shot is fired, the first lie is broadcast. Ethiopia’s state media machine is now manufacturing consent for a conflict with Eritrea and history shows where that road leads. There is a sequence every manufactured war follows. First comes the grievance, resurrected from history and polished for television. Then comes the provocation real or invented, repeated until it feels like common knowledge. Finally comes the enemy, stripped of nuance and humanity, against whom all measures become justified. Anyone watching Ethiopian state media today will recognize this sequence in progress. The target is Eritrea, and the machinery is running at full speed.
