(May1, 2011,ADDIS ABABA, ST)--Eritrea through its envoy to Africa Union (AU) has dismissed the latest military threats from Ethiopia in a speech to the AU on 26 April.
Delivering a speech at an AU meeting in Addis Ababa, the Eritrean Ambassador Girma Asmerom said Eritrea is not surprised by the current “disinformation campaign and the patently baseless and unjustifiable accusation of Ethiopia”.
“Ethiopia has abandoned its defensive policy and now will be proactive about toppling Eritrea”, Ethiopian Prime minister Meles Zenawi told parliament in a recent session, accusing Eritrea of continuing terrorist acts with a plan to make Addis Ababa like Baghdad. FULL ARTICLE AT Sudan tribune »
“The accusation is purely fabricated to divert and deflect the attention of the international community from giving undivided attention to Ethiopia’s illegal occupation of sovereign Eritrean territory including the town of Badme in violation of the UN Charter and the Eritrea Ethiopia Boundary Commission (EEBC) Final and Binding 2002 Delimitation Decision and 2007 Demarcation Decision” he said.
Ethiopia last month said it has changed its policy toward Eritrea and is now preparing to oust the government through “diplomatic and military” means.
