Eritrean people enjoy both independence and dignity, as independence alone is not a measure of happiness.

Bless Getcho’s heart, he’s out here huffing copium like it’s oxygen.
Let me guess: was it a "vodka infused epiphany" night? He must have been sporting a world-class buzz this Friday to convince himself that while the US is busy juggling Red Sea access and playing "Let’s Make a Deal" on sanctions with the PIA, they’re going to pause everything just to beg Eritrea to "appease" Abiy’s port thirsty invasion threats.
It’s adorable, really. Pure wishful thinking. Someone should tell him that Potemkin Ethiopia isn’t exactly the sun that the global geopolitical solar system revolves around. Stick to the appetizers, Getcho. The "grand strategy" is clearly a bit too heavy for your current state. 🤷🏿♂️

Brothers, there is more than meets the eye, as they say. Rapprochement with Eritrea, however great it may sound to all of us in this region, is not a distinct possibility. But if that happens, it will definitely involve President Isaias being ‘advised’ to do a rapprochement with his southern and most consequential neighbor, @AbiyAhmedAli. But again, let’s cross the bridge when we come to it.

Good news… The Trump administration is considering lifting U.S. sanctions on Eritrea as part of efforts to reset diplomatic relations!
It is worth recalling what Hillary Clinton once said about Eritrea, according to U.S. diplomatic cables published by WikiLeaks: Eritrea is a bad example of good governance.!
What she meant reflects a broader Western concern about Eritrea’s model of self-reliance, especially after it rejected foreign aid and NGOs such as USAID in the mid-2000s. It was seen as a bad example for Africa, as other countries might follow the same path and move away from dependence on external assistance.
With the current administration shifting its approach to humanitarian aid in Africa and closing down USAID, it seems the time has come to reconsider and lift these sanctions.

Eritrea is as brutally repressive as ever -- it is compared to North Korea at home, it slaughters ethnic Tigrayans in Ethiopia -- but Trump ignores all that and plans to lift sanctions for geopolitical reasons. trib.al/hwX0r29

@KjetilTronvoll A puppet has never had any opinion thats what Ethiopia is has nothing to say/do nor does it has any opinion.

If realised (likely to be a non-starter?), the US-Eritrea rapprochement will affect regional alliances, and may force the hand of Ethiopia to reconsider its regional positions and international relations strategy and options.

🚨 As I have been predicting for weeks, Washington has jumped into the hornets nest of Red Sea politics, holding secret meetings with Isaias in Cairo in a bid to increase its influence in the region by lifting sanctions on Eritrea. What will Eritrea do in return? How will Addis react? What does this mean for Trump's promise to restart GERD talks? How will this a US-Eritrea rapprochement affect the SAF and Sudan's war? And what will UAE and Saudi make of the US effort to enter Red Sea political debates, seemingly aligning itself against Ethiopia? Too many questions to answer. But what I can say is that the US is doing it all without a strategy with a used truck salesman at the helm. What could possibly go wrong?? wsj.com/world/africa/u…

He is a world worst diplomat!
How can he have bilateral relationship with a regime that has no constitutional system,still in transition, no legitimate, and no clear investment policy?
Yes, he show us how he can corrupted & don't care about the future of both countries people.

My thanks to President Isaias Afwerki for accepting my letter of credence. Though 🇨🇦 and 🇪🇷 have differences, our discussion focused primarily on where our interests align. I shared my desire for effective bilateral relations, centred on mutually beneficial partnerships.

@GirmayHabtu @SheabiaForever @EriZara3 It doesnt matter. They should have returned and leave the country at their own expense. Lets not white wash what they have done.
English
@EriZara3 @SheabiaForever The players have no political motives. They didn't leave the team after the first game. People who want to embarrass the country promised them contracts with big clubs.

I knew this too few years ago as I have noticed his posts before. Smh..People like him and the so-called opposition enjoy spreading negative news about our country for their own political gain. #Eritrea will always prevail, despite their ill intentions.

I’ve been tracking this account for years, and the pattern is impossible to ignore. This individual only surfaces on X when the Eritrean national team travels abroad. A few years back, I called out his connection to past player defections, and his only response was to block me.

🇪🇷🇪🇷 Eritrea: Over 70% of Eritreans Don’t Have A Bank Account. A report published on March 30, 2026, by The Fintech Times highlighted that Eritrea’s financial system remains highly centralized and underdeveloped, with over 70% of the population still unbanked. The sector is dominated by a handful of state-owned banks, led by the Commercial Bank of Eritrea which controls the majority of assets, while the Bank of Eritrea acts as the central authority; private banking is not permitted, resulting in minimal competition and innovation. There are no ATMs in the country, online banking is unavailable, and digital financial services including mobile money remain extremely limited, leaving most transactions cash-based and informal. This low level of financial inclusion, among the widest gaps in Africa, is compounded by a fixed exchange rate, stringent capital controls, foreign exchange shortages, and an underdeveloped digital infrastructure, all of which continue to constrain access to credit—particularly for small and medium enterprises—despite the lifting of sanctions in 2018 and the economy’s reliance on mining exports and diaspora remittances. thefintechtimes.com/eritreas-finte…

@EUSR_Weber @AmbStesfamariam Eritreans are willing to work with EU or any other organizations. However imposing foreign policy on us, un justified sanctions, bullying, interfering in internal issue are the challenges we are facing. We work as equal partners.

Diaspora Eritreans in Norway with dual citizenship constitute the largest group of players - 3 - on the Eritrea National football team in the 2027 African Cup of Nations AFCON)! A result of the repressive regime, and an exodus of refugees over two decades.
AronT@Aribanob
Eritrean national football team's squad for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers relies heavily on diaspora players who live outside Eritrea and hold second or dual citizenship. Home-based players often defect and seek political asylum abroad during away matches—a pattern linked to the country's indefinite national/military service policies, with over 60 defections since 2009. Diaspora players are now being actively called up as a “fix” for the team. Nearly the entire home-based national team had previously fled, forcing the federation to turn to foreign-based players. Only a small number of local (home-based) players are selected. Eritrea is playing today Eswatini in Morocco today. G00D LUCK. The full roster below not confirmed

@ZecariasG It’s because of the likes of you ppl like Tibor think they can interfer in others issues. Disgusting 🤮
English
You’re absolutely right about the hypocrisy of PFDJ supporters. It’s hard to understand how someone risks their life to escape a system, then praises it from thousands of kilometres away. It’s deeply twisted. That said, some of your comments on Eritrea itself, not PFDJ, have been insulting and are not fitting for a diplomat.
Tibor Nagy@TiborPNagyJr
I shake my head at Eritrean diaspora which sings the praises of dictator Isaias. If he's so great, why don't they go home to his "paradise" instead of staying in corrupt West? Of course, in Eritrea, they couldn't insult people on X due to no internet. Isn't hypocrisy wonderful?!

The PP cadres never seem to stop scraping the bottom of the barrel. They appear so fixated and jealous on #Eritrea’s win over #Eswatini that they have shifted the discussion to where the players reside and started a campaign to disqualify Eritrea from #CAF. It is, frankly, an embarrassing to be a PP cadre!
I have never known #Eritreans to be jealous of #Ethiopia’s sporting successes; on the contrary, they are often quick to congratulate them.
Just look at the national teams of countries like #Nigeria, #Senegal, #Ghana and #Morocco, and look where their players are based. As long as a player holds the nationality of the country they represent, they can live and play anywhere in the world. Yet this basic reality seems lost on the PP cadre.. little brains.
English
Almost a third of the players who play for their national team at the Africa Cup of nations Afcon 2023 and 2024 were not born in Africa. Plus At the 2022 FIFA World Cup, 34 per cent of the players representing African nations were born outside the continent….Self-identity and family dynamics are a couple of reasons why players choose to play for teams from the birthplaces of their parents rather than their own. Why can’t we encourage them? Rather than being habitually and critically focuses on minor flaws?? Typical!
English
It seems the Eritrean Football Federation is heading toward short-term survival mode by relying on diaspora players. That’s understandable but it’s not a real solution.
What about the homegrown players?
You can’t expect results from players who are in military camps across the country, bring them together for 2–3 weeks & demand performance. That’s not how football works. The reality is every chance they get, they will think about leaving b/c going back means military camps not a football career that part needs to be fixed.
