Eritrea was once an Italian colony. It has a distinct culture, and resides on the Red Sea, as a trading country, dependent upon the sea.

There was a war which lasted 30 years, after its founding in 1952, but the war brought it into the 1990’s. They won. It’s a tiny little country, and its people are clever.

Ethiopia—and one has known sever Ethiopians, who are always the salt of the Earth, wonderful people—wants to overtake Eritrea, simply for access to shipping ports.

We must stand with the Eritrean people as they struggle against Ethipian dominance in the region. …

As my lival convenience store owner explained, you can have access to our ports, but you must pay. And this payment will further enrich Eritrean society.

Please care about this situation, and tell me how these conclusions are wrong. Your thoughts and concerns are like manna in the desert. Let us care about Eritrea.
