Ukraine Condemns Eritrea for visiting Crimea
Yesterday, Ukraine's Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a press statement protesting the visit of senior Eritrean officials to Crimea which came at the invitation of the Russian Federation. The statement said:
MFA expresses its strong protest to Eritrean side over not approved by Ukraine visit on June 5-6, 2014 of Minister for Foreign Affairs of the State of Eritrea Osman Mohammed Saleh to the temporarily occupied by the Russian Federation the Autonomous Republic of Crimea.
Ukraine considers that visit as an unfriendly step, blatant disregard of international law by Eritrean side as well as a flagrant violation of Ukrainian sovereignty and domestic law, of the UN Charter and the UN General Assembly resolution "Territorial integrity of Ukraine" adopted on March 27, 2014, that may have deeply negative effect on further development of Ukrainian - Eritrean relations.
We call on the Eritrean side to respect strictly the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine and to comply with the international law.
The irony here is it's Ukraine that seems to be uncomfortable with respecting international law. For many years, successive Kiev administrations have disrespected Eritrea's sovereignty and territorial integrity by supporting the belligerent regime in Ethiopia and turning a blind eye to its occupation of sovereign Eritrean territories.
More concerning, it was Ukraine who sold 200 T-72 tanks worth over US$100 million in one of the largest contracts signed by the country's arms exporter in more than 15 years. This contract was delivered despite extensive protest by the Eritrean Government, and with the knowledge of these weapons were likely going to be used against the Eritrean people.
So it's long overdue that Ukraine looks itself in the mirror when feeling the need to lecture nations about the virtues of adhering to international law.

Ukraine can screw itself, as it is already flirting with NATO. What is good for the goose is just as good for the gander. We will not forget what it did by way of helping the dying Weyane last another day. Eritreans are magnanimous and we may forgive, but NEVER forget any crimes committed against us.
ReplyDeleteFirst off all Crimea was never Ukraine's territory, Thanks to Nikita Khrushchev a Ukrainian born former USSR president who awarded Crimea illegally to Ukraine on February 1954.
ReplyDeleteThank u Madote Very Insightful article.
ReplyDelete1) Eritrea as an independent nation can and will stand, visit or acknowledge any country it so wishes. Especially like this ones where we can send a double and triple message.
2) Ukraine as its stated in article has sold lethal weapons to our enemy. Granted the tanks are mostly old, mostly useless scrap metal standard tanks but still it did what it did. So Yes Screw Ukraine and their protesting Eritrea's visit.
Most importantly though this visit as a whole is a symbol that Eritrea is a respected Member of the new Order including Russia, China, Iran, Venezuela, etc who in reality have won the fight against Imperialism and Corporate dominance.
An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
ReplyDeleteShame on the PFDJ government.
Ukraine, instead of being empty walking puppets, must respect the International law and norm,Cremains had spoken up exercising their right by majority voting to be separated, that fact stands for ever .
ReplyDeleteMisunderstood. This is not an eye for an eye rather to show our solidarity with those free societies who won their freedom with the will of the people. Long live PFDJ government and the people of Eritrea!!
ReplyDeleteDid Russia opposed eritrean sanctions no .if Russia believed pfdj is innocent it would have oppose it .so it wouldnt have happened .but isseyas has no were to go he feels cold and alone and he forced to go and try to fillirt Russia hoping if he can get small small rifraf to became Russian pupuet like derg .Russia was and is a friend of Ethiopia .now and yesterday lol Ethiopia could have bought his tanks from Israel or america or even Russia as long as it pays the money Ethiopia chose Ukrainian tanks because they are cheaper and better .Ethiopia can buy have been bought fighter jets and sofesticated weapons from many countries .and beuildes its defense forces very well .that is why it became the most strong army after eygipt from Africa .Ethiopia's concern is not small Eritrea its Egypt .Ethiopia have a capapility to finish Eritrea with in a days us we know there is no one will stand and fight a genest Ethiopia for isseyas .people are leaving the country with out a war .imagine when one pulet shoot there will be no one there to defend .
ReplyDeleteabzeymenTebitkin ayteetiwa idkin! Tebloqloq HGDEF zey hisret entay keyemitsiee!
ReplyDeleteVisiting Crimea means provoking Ukriain. Provoking ukrain at this moment means provoking EU and US, provoking EU and US at this time meand tightening the rope that in on our neck. A leadership who has respect and concern of its people wouldn't do such move but as I said before - I don't expect to get a honey from a fly.
ReplyDeleteThe Tigrinya proverb goes "TsiblaliE MeAkora zykedenet midri kedenet", which implies, Eritrea had never been independent, it is colonized by Rasputin like Tembiens! How come Eritrea the one which does not acknowledge even its subjected refugees play diplomacy? Disti, berrad hibey could not make it! It is a failed regime! We were told by the same regime that Russia was the enemy of Eritrean people for it supported the Dergue - it was presented as a crocodile - it is a shame to see wedi berrad dancing with crocodiles again! Shame shame shame!
ReplyDeleteFantastic move Eritrea, just a queen's move, so high and not a pawn..
ReplyDeleteBig mistake of HGDF.
ReplyDeleteWhere is Z cruise,,, actually in am glad you brought the issue of provoking , you see what you have just done to yourself? Exposing your cowardic stand . You are so coward that you still hoping a mercy from EU, USA or else. What kind of message do you think this will send to the whole world especially to the US? I don't know if it concerns you but I would like to remind you that it is because of the US blessings that the puppet government in Addis ababa had ignored an international law in respect to illegal and in lawful occupation of sovergin Eritrean territories. The law is the law my friend if the US want everyone to respect the international law they should have done so ten years ago in Bademe.
ReplyDeleteህነኡ ዘይፈዲ ሰብኣይ ኣይወለ፡ all russia did was selling arms, but what US did is twisting everything it can against Us, so why not go to russia than US! Offcourse russia did nothing to Eritreans compare to US. And russians policy is much clear that americas
ReplyDelete"negative effect on further development of Ukrainian - Eritrean relations", very interesting comment.The Somalia and Eritrea Monitoring Group claimed that Eritrean MIG 29 where getting serviced in Ukrain did Ukraine provide the Somalia and Eritrea Monitoring Group with some information that upset Eritrea? may be Yes may be NO.
ReplyDeleteFurther more what was the role of Ukraine and Russia during the 1998 war with Ethiopia?I might be wrong but as far as I know the Ukrainian where providing training for Eritrean pilots and the Russians where supporting the Ethiopians with pilots,trainers,advisers and both of them done it for money.
Ukraine and its conflicts none of our business. Russia, similar to the western countries and China, has only own interest in mind not that of Eritrea. If Ethiopia wants to buy military hardware from Russia, the I am sure that Russia won't object to it too.
ReplyDeleteThat was exactly, what I was thinking. Well Eritrea may use Russia's support against sanctions and to do something about its dilapidated military hard ware / economy.
ReplyDeleteBut the question is again... what will be the next Ethiopian move on this matter? What about EU? US? Ukraine etc...
What about if Ukraine takes it to the next level, so that it does not only condemen but also accusses Eritrea on relevant EU, AU and UN bodies and other podiums vis- à- vis Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations. Will that improve the image of Eritrea?
On the other hand is it only a matter of Birds of the same feather
flock together :) South Ossetia, Crimea, Abkhazia and Eritrea? (by the
way do the Russians believe Eritrea is on that neveau?)
Too many questions but nowadays the Grand question is **Where is your Brother Caine?**
Written by Kunama Zmesil Negro Ambasador ... extra-corrupt, egoist and narcisst Agame :)
Why is eritrea taking sides with the russians and why even go to Crimea.it's a small country and should act like one.
ReplyDeleteR u saying just coz they sold leathal weapon yo ethiopia that eritrea should go to Crimea and provoke them..If eritrea wants it can buy weapons from any country too if it has money...it is just business
ReplyDeleteI would go crazy if Ethiopian Foreign affair office do such blunder. Shabia is a good example of how to loose friends in 23 years and alienate countries.
ReplyDeleteBros war is not good at all .I agree with u .u sead we got what u wanted we could have got it will out a war . its not war what we gave us its from court that we got it if u think that we got same thing if u had responsible gaverment we wouldn't suffered thise much . we eritreans started the war the court asked us to pay a compensation to Ethiopia higdef agreed to that .what I seas up is all true .Ethiopian army enterd and attacked higdef army several time what dose it shows u weakness lol but Ethiopia has no interest to go to war they are battling a poverty war they are rebuilding their country .the reason they cannot withdraw from Eritrea territory is there have to be normalazation relashion acourding the international norm .then dialogue .it was not a border war because the border proplem was there since 1991 why we invaded them with tanks 1998 . so there should be a political solution .Ethiopia will not lose any thing from cold war since Ethiopia is big and can use 3 ports as we wittnes its economy is boasting .its we are suffering as we all see .its not a matter of immotion leader ship needs wisdom not immotion higdef leases lucks wisdom that is why they ended with shame. Sanctions. Exodus hunger no rule of low and normal life we are declining like we never before .as u call me tigraway I would have been proud to be the one but unfortunately I am eritrean but God forbid I am neither symperizer of higdef or higdef
ReplyDeleteEven if what you say is right, what you saying is that every shop keeper whom i bought my apparels is my friend? buying amd selling is not making or loosing friends just a mere transaction b/n two parties, and diplomacy is another kettle of fish.
ReplyDeleteThe Ukrainians did not sell the fighter planes to Eritrea they only provided Instructors either way even if they had sold they wouldn't not do it out of sympathy but pure cash it was simply business.
ReplyDeleteFirst off, where have u been for last 8 yrs??? Eritrea can not buy any sizable weapons...due to the sanction .
ReplyDeleteSecondly: wht am saying is Ukraine Gov , which is illegitimate by the way, is a puppet for the imperialists which are our main roadblock to living peacefully. Ethiopia is nothing but a small puppy while the controllers r those who put the now gov party in power in Ukraine. So either way Ukraine isn't considered friendly in my books.
Most Importantly : I am proud of our Gov honest and unbiased stand, same with India, China, Russia who all have openly accepted Crimean.
I am sure when u r typing this u must be Kneeling down. As u seem ready to kneel to do anything. What kind of Eritrean r u? Respect and Concern Does Not equal to selling out. Are u blind to what's happening in Ethiopia? R u blind to what's happening to Libya, Iraq? Its People like who rather give up their Soul and sell out their ppl and country for a swiss bank account and bring chaos to their country. Wake up man.
ReplyDeleteIt is a bit more than a business. you don't get many countries who sells you arms as well as experts. rumor has it Ukrainian and Russian fighters engaged in both side of the fight as mercenaries.
ReplyDeleteat the time Russia refused to send flight instructors to Eritrea because it was giving the same service to Ethiopia and didn't want to engage in two side of the war. So Ukraine stepped up. Dear wake up that is what we call friendship in diplomacy, it doesn't mean you go to date and cinema hand in hand.
There are over 3000 Social Media accounts Run by Over 500 Employees @ the Ethiopian Ministry Of Information ( also know as Ministry of Lies ) and Lo and Behold I bet u are one of the New Dedebit Graduates who are working the social Media propaganda line. Read this

1) Make Anti Eritrea Comment
2) Spread the Fiction That TPLF has capability to do anything...
U just made my day. But try stay out of Eritrean Politics
how about if Ukraine should send delegation to visit badme and acknowledge it as part of Ethiopia.People who live in glass house should't throw stones. PFDJ dumbest move of the year .
ReplyDeleteThe Ukrainian Ambassador to Ethiopia will visit Badme and environs soon. And then, he will also visit Dankalia and environs.lol. South Gash Barka is as Ethiopian as South Ossetia is Russian. Dankalia is Ethiopian as Abkhazia is Russian. Badme is Ethiopian as Crimea is Russian. ))))))
ReplyDeletewell said brother!
ReplyDeleteBla bla bla, what did smoke idio.
ReplyDeletetypical Agame, yes Eritrea is a small country yet this small nation defeated both super power, black Africa biggest and most advance military, 3.5 defeated a population of 90 million, this small nation throughout history has been writing history (to the point that our neighbours (Ethiopia) hero are all from Eritrea, a small nation against all odds achieved her independence and continues to make miracles, in 23 years has achieved almost all millennium development goals and all this achieve due to her beautiful, strong, resilient, creative, prude, intelligent, free people. know who we are dog, we might be small in size and population but we are mightier than any other people - for no one give us our freedom, we achieved it through our might, now Agame bow down to your masters the Eritrean
ReplyDeleteQuondaf agame. You don't even know how to pretend. Anyone can tell you are an agame. I can smell your stinking dead brain from far away. Learn how to write in English first.
ReplyDeleteYou seem to have forgotten the crimes committed against us by the Russian Federation?
ReplyDeleteAs a reminder China and the Russian Federation both abstained from voting on United Nations Security Council Resolution 1907.
Great allies we have?
I will reply you slowly because I am a little bit tide up with work.
ReplyDeleteYou said "you want us to bow down to man and a white man at that"
I say – Are Russian black men??
nebri
ReplyDeleteStop wasting your time ,this hegdefawian puppets will never understand history and consequence of the policy of the mad man in Asmara,they blame every one in this planet, AU, UN, USA, CANADA, WOYANE, DJIBOUTI, GERMANY,NORWAY, BBC,NEW YORK TIMES,THE GUARDIAN, IGAD and now is UKRAINE time.it is not hard to tell, this people are crazy and stupid pointing finger at everyone but not themselves. Shame Shame hegdefawian.
U mean u are the one from 300 higdef social media accounts chey I dint know .about the fiction u sead dint Ethiopia made araid 3 times inside Eritrea And destroy training camps but what dose higdef says blame USA kkk goole it Ethiopian raids inside Eritrea lol u will find it der . do u blive what ethiomedia says if u do I will post from ethiomedia a bout the weakness of higdef . do u wanna put a life to the one who is already dead .higdef is dead when it puts his cabinet minister in jail . when it kills his fellow disable fighters .are u still defending higdef from diaspora lol if u feel higdef is doing write thing why u left Eritrea lol u see u are a lier .same body else wanna defend or higdef weil u are writing clmments
ReplyDelete"I am sure when u r typing this u must be Kneeling down. As u seem ready to kneel to do anything…"
ReplyDelete"Stand tall and high" means, not to involve in US-Russia conflict. If we are not kneeling down for the west/EU, we are kneeling down for Russia at this point.
Exposing your cowardic stand.....
ReplyDeleteThere are two kind of moves a stupid move and wise move.
Go and try it on a black jack table. The first one will make you broke (bankrupt) and the second one will make you leave the place with money in your pocket.
U do understood my point that is the point .which one of my comment is make u mad and that u thought u insult me .lol people go to insult when they have no argument biside have u ever call kondaf a game to demhit inside Eritrea don't do that they will skin u alive .lol u cannot even smell or own shit do u . u think u are eritrean because u defend higdef u are a fool I am sorry . no tigraway comes here and tell u I am Eritrean me I don't think so since he has his own country to proud of lol but that is irrelevant stick to the topic . are u defending Eritrea ( higdef) from diaspora too lol I feel bad for u cheyyyy
ReplyDeleteAn amtatur higfef politicians doesn't know the consciousness of their political game
ReplyDeleteAbstain great allies oppose it not abstain kkkkk
ReplyDeleteWhat if Ukraine accept badme as part of Ethiopia .Russia .China didn't opposed the sanctions because they don't wanna lose friends .Russia used to work with NATO only mad when it cames to its interest .every body works for its interest . honest an biased stand . what if Ukraine visit badme .do u think Russia will have an interest in Eritrea than all African country at list members of igad and African union I don't think so .ethiopia has a good relashinship with Russia and China . Eritrea visit to cremia is irrelevant for Putin he already knows the intention .what dose Russia get from Eritrea nothing . Russia doesn't have any political influence in Africa . I don't support ukreanian illigmate gaverment .but its a play of an angry child going and visiting creamia for higdef they hoped they will angry USA and NATO but I don't think an elephant see ant .
ReplyDeleteThe level of maturity exhibited here surfices any kind of logical respond. All that i could say is i am glad the all know it all are not representing Eritrea; one more reason that i sleep better, i know Eritrea is in good hands.
ReplyDeleteI think the eritrean delegates have no other option apart from accepting the invitation by the russian federation provided they are there to get some handouts from them. As the old saying goes "Beggars have no choice"! The wise thing to do was to withhold yemane monkey and the puppet FM from accompanying the official delegates in visiting cremea so as to spare them more embarrassment for doing a very sensitive and controversial misdeed. By the way the monkey looks great when it tried to stand upright!!!! kkk
ReplyDeleteAre you expressing your jealousy? qondaf woyane!
ReplyDeleteno boy that you, that the problem with you, you bow down, you kneel dow to them,---- if that was the case we would've voted in favour of them at the UN instead of abstaining - you servant of a servant
ReplyDeletelooool " I am a little bit tide up with work. " llloool you joker, you actually got another work beside demonising Eritrea? .... ooh i almost forget you're an Hotairtical Engineer .. seriously though you need to stop sniffing that white staff, well we did influence them with the Black Eritrean Russian (Pushkin) lool but as long as its for our self interest, i do not even mind working with the despicable Agames
ReplyDeleteLook who is talking. Mr Cruise cruising around. How about the illegal visit of Badme, Eritrea though your birth place, Shire Ethiopia by big Elephant Jendayi Frazer ?
ReplyDeleteWhen you say you don't mind even working with the despicable twisted agames, do you mean Issayas and yemane? Who else is more twisted than these two crooks??
ReplyDeleteAnta kndey koshemshem tblu ? Who cares what all agames like about Eritrean steps? Who asked for your concern ? As twisted hearts as you are YES you will try to run from US to EU again to Russia to stand against every step Eritrea takes. You will always lie to your teeth to make it dificult for Eritrea on every corner. But mind you, yesterday is not today :) The world has learned to differentiate the bad and the good intention of every state, as you see Russia was the worst enemy of Eritrea and you will cry more louder when the US take the steps to come closer to Eritrea and condemn Ethiopia soon. Time changes :) Alem tishiAnte ktbla ikhn gena LOL
ReplyDeleteYou must be out of your head. There is much more than you can imagine on the Tube. Your dream is Gone with the wind. Where is your Brother Kirkir?
ReplyDeleteWhere is your brother ? ask yourself.
ReplyDeleteWell I am not the only one asking. The whole wide world is asking that, at least I may dare to say... is forced to ask that?
ReplyDeleteI may give you a hint is that enough?
ReplyDeleteThe whole wide world has learned enough of woyane old tactics. You gain no respect no more from any where. Your empire was built on sand and is shaking to fall apart.
ReplyDeleteRumor is just that....weapons are sold and bought on a daily basi, only if you don't have the doe you may need friends like the USA to Ethiopia, who can give you a Billion at will and call it aid, and diplomacy in Africa is based on qid pro quo, again a transaction. if you think the west has a genuine intention they throw money around think again. if Eritrea chooses to ally with Russia because its interest is not respected by the west, in other words we didn't agree with the terms on which what you called "friendship in diplomacy" would have been based on. who is to say we can't switch if our interest is served right, till then we try to create a better Eritrea even when the going get tough, and we know the true colors of so called friends.

ReplyDeleteSuleman, I know that any good news from Eritrea churns your stomch; call them what ever you like and it can only show how shallow woyane boy you are!!
ReplyDeleteManny if i understand you correctly what you say applied to anybody and everybody, including those that you think have akim ( ability), you see ability can only proven with test; just as things that are tangable. Here though there are many paper-tigers who think and blubber as if they are expert on every subject. As you can see all topics are mangled-up and all the name calling amounts to nothing while the issues that bring us to such forum, it seems are never intelectually discussed.
ReplyDeleteOsman and yemane did not visit those places, does it mean anything to those that are woyane sympethizers?
ReplyDeleteKkkk don't you know our vote is insignificant. Who gives a rat about a country that doesn't respect it's own citizens. It is when the government start to respect its own people and run the nation under constitution that others would see us differently.
ReplyDeleteAn eye for an is a fare play.
ReplyDeleteMadote nebsi,
ReplyDeleteCould you ask Yemane G/Mesqel for his response on Ukraine's protest?
I am interested to hear what he has to say.
Nobody cares what the monkeys do - it is an attention seeking behaviour - they're so irrelevant in today's politics...and their puppets try to remind us all the support we received during the liberation struggle. Yours! PFDJ Thugs.

ReplyDeletetesttt
ReplyDeleteit shows how you have a heart of an Agame, you twisted. do you know what i want and meant?-- i pray that God gives our neighbours the strength to be proud of who they are. for i want this two people to work together and take out the snake that infect our continent, i want this two people to be at their rightful place, as the father, statesmen, leaders, protecters of a United States of Africa. however, we have triad this the Ethiopian way for over a century and we lost not just the whole continent but also ourselves. so at my heart i believe to the right of the nature of the land where Eritrea is re-crowned as the rightful head of the continent, for i believe the Eritrean path is the only hope for the whole continent
ReplyDeleteWhat do you expect from lawless government who doesn't even regard the rights of its own people in Eritrea. Russia and Eritrea two lawless countries befriending each other is not the surprise of the century!!
ReplyDeleteWhy do you have to call me names u don't know me I don't know u I'm free to have an opinion and u r free say what u want.but I guese u don't believe in free press maybe
ReplyDeletei apologise for calling you names however the tone of your comment felt that it was demeaning,
ReplyDelete
