The publication “The National” reports on the matter, emphasizing that concurrently, Cairo is engaging in discussions with Asmara regarding the potential for Egyptian mediation in the decade-long conflict involving the Eritrean government and the Tigray People’s Liberation Front.
The governments of Egypt and Eritrea are exploring the possibility of establishing a military and intelligence cooperation agreement, which would also encompass measures to enhance the security of maritime activities in the Red Sea, as reported by The National newspaper. Additionally, Cairo is in discussions with Asmara regarding the potential for Egyptian mediation in the ongoing conflict between the Eritrean government and the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF), a conflict that has persisted for over a decade and involved the Ethiopian military. These discussions were initiated following a recent visit to Asmara by Egyptian intelligence chief Kamal Abbas, a close associate of President Abdel Fattah al Sisi, who was accompanied by Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty.
During their visit, the Egyptian delegates engaged in talks with Eritrean President Isaias Afwerki, where they conveyed a direct message from President Al Sisi aimed at enhancing and expanding bilateral relations across various sectors. The Egyptian Foreign Ministry emphasized the importance of this dialogue in fostering cooperation between the two nations, particularly in light of the strategic significance of the Red Sea region. This initiative reflects a broader effort by Egypt to strengthen its influence in the Horn of Africa and address regional security challenges through collaborative partnerships.
The statement further elaborated that senior officials from Egypt engaged in discussions with President Afwerki regarding the recent developments in the Red Sea. They emphasized the necessity of establishing favorable conditions to restore normal maritime navigation and facilitate international trade through the Strait of Bab el Mandeb, which serves as a vital link between the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea. The coastal territories of Egypt and Eritrea span approximately 5 kilometers along the Red Sea, encompassing the Egyptian shores of the Gulfs of Suez and Aqaba, in addition to 355 islands that fall under Eritrean jurisdiction.
Egypt maintains control over the northern regions of the Red Sea, which includes the strategically significant Suez Canal that connects to the Mediterranean Sea, while Eritrea is positioned in proximity to the crucial Strait of Bab el Mandeb. The most recent meeting between President al-Sisi and President Afwerki took place in February of this year in Cairo, following their previous encounter in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, three months prior. These discussions underscore the importance of collaboration between the two nations in addressing maritime and trade issues in the region.

Abiy is a puppet of Egypt. Egypt is a puppet of the west. The rest is drama.
What saddens me is the fact that Isaias was able to decimate the lives and prospects of two generations of Eritreans without the possibility of facing any type of accountability. He has turned chaos into a high art.
Okay, Ethiopia! Out of Oromia! Ethiopia! Out of Amhara! Ethiopia! Out of Tigray! Hey Ethiopia! Out of Ethiopia!!!!! I’m telling you Ethiopia! You heard me!!! Out of Ethiopia! If you don’t, I’m gonna in there myself and kick every Ethiopia that comes with in my parameter out of Ethiopia!!! Then I will the old Mussolini spiritual:
Faccetta nera, bell’abissina
Aspetta e spera che già l’ora si avvicina!
quando saremo insieme a te
noi ti daremo un’altra legge e un altro Re
Faccetta nera, bell’abissina
Aspetta e spera che già l’ora si avvicina!
quando saremo insieme a te
noi ti daremo un’altra legge e un altro Re
Faccetta nera, piccola abissina
ti porteremo a Roma, liberata
Dal sole nostro tu sarai baciata
Sarai in Camicia Nera pure tu
You see, I still remember every word of it from glorious days as a member of Gruppo Bande(Ascari). Would somebody please raise Mussolini, Graziani and Badoglio from the dead for me!!! I’m begging you!!!
Folks,
Kinda made a mistake. I just received news from my extremely reliable sources that it is now confirmed that armies of Al-Qahirah, Piccolo Roma and Arab-Somal of Villa Mogadishu are in Addis/Finfinne after wiping out the entire defense forces of Ethiopia and eliminating every living, breathing Amhara, Oromo, Afar, Tigre, Somal-Jigjige, Gambela, Beni from the face of the earth. The operation keys of the GERD dam are now in the hands of Al-Rais el-Sisi. Ethiopian Airlines has been renamed Somal-Arab Airlines. I also heard that Brother Isaias opposed the operation during the last hours because he knew the real motive of Egypt and was forced to flee his country to his mother’s birthplace of Myanmar(Burma). His father was a Malay. He and his family now live in a dilapidated and long abandoned factory building in Mandalay. Abiy had fled the country immediately after the mighty Somal-Arab soldiers crossed the border and he now lives in a tent among bigots and connivers in Minnesota and Toronto. Jula? You may ask? I told you secrets about him before. He is a Tutsi and he was long gone to Rwanda with out firing a single shot. Your Ethiopia is gone for good. Eat your heart out, Ittu!!!!
