Eritrea and Russia to Boost Trade and Political Ties
In a joint press conference on Monday, Eritrean Foreign Minister Osman Saleh and his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov, announced to boost development of trade and economic ties between Eritrea and Russia.
"Russian companies are interested in implementing a number of investment projects in Eritrea. Our partners have confirmed that they are ready to create favorable conditions for Russian business." Said Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.
Stressing the importance of peace and security in the region, the two sides signed an agreement to enhance bilateral cooperation and regional coordination.
"We signed the first in the history of bilateral relations plan consultations between the Ministries of Foreign Affairs of Russia and Eritrea, which will further deepen our political interaction." Said Sergey.
Sergey said they also addressed key issues of international and regional affairs, and agreed to continue to work closely in the UN and other international markets.
"We are convinced that all issues relating to Africa must be addressed primarily by Africans themselves based on the balance of interests of international law with the support of the international community." Sergey added.
Will the illegal sanctions against Eritrea be lifted soon?
Russia played a key role in helping water-down the illegal sanctions against Eritrea. It has also been an outspoken critic of the UN Somalia Eritrea Monitoring Group, going as far as accusing it of being biased towards Eritrea.
"Russia objects to the publication of the (Eritrea) report due to the biased and groundless conclusions and recommendations contained in it.” Said Vitaly Churkin, the Russian Ambassador to the U.N., after reading the monitoring group's report on Eritrea in July of 2013.
With veto-wielding Russia seeking to build closer economic and political ties with Eritrea, many observers see this as a strong sign that the sanctions against Eritrea will be lifted sooner rather than later.

I personally believe either Russia or a European country will float a new resolution in the U.N. Security Council this July calling for the lifting of the sanctions on Eritrea. I think after much bickering and fighting, it will ultimately pass because the evidence isn't there and the new SEMG team had virtually nothing critical to say about Eritrea in their latest report.
ReplyDeleteThanks madote for the information.
ReplyDeleteIt is fantastic to see Eritrea getting much deserved respect from the big power, after all Russia knows what Eritrea made off. 2014 gona be very busy year for hope full nation of Eritrea.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome bro!
ReplyDeleteA country who was helping the derg with all kind of weapon to burn the land of Eritrea now became more friend than USA who was helping with oil and child food to EPLF and TPLF ... Russia has only one interest and it is to use small countries like Eritrea to use them to keep their interest against USA interest...Amerca historicaly stood against our independence but Russia sent physically millitary personals to kill our people and burn our cities...too young to remmber or too damn to go back to history..that is poltical prostitution higdef style.

Do not use weyane's brush to clean your teeth and do not pretend to be Eritrean.
ReplyDeleteYou are apparently looking in TPLF's mirror while thinking it's a window.
Stop deceiving yourself.
Let me quote a line from a movie "scarFace" with a little twist: "the u.s. is like a big pussyy, waiting to get fucccked".
