On 24 and 25 March, the EPDP North America Zone and the EPDP Frankfurt Branch held, respectively, very important periodical meetings, thus becoming exemplary EPDP organs in the rejuvenation and reinforcement programme to speed up the much delayed success of the struggle for democratic change in Eritrea.

 

The main agenda item of the EPDP North America Zone meeting was receiving performance reports from all branches in the United States and Canada. The meeting was highly satisfied with the success so far achieved in registering an increasing number of women as well as young boys and girls and the return to party ranks of former freedom fighters who were not so active in recent years. Meeting participants also commended the active participation in the recent fund-raising drive, and the ongoing efforts of the information and cultural units of the NA Zone.

 

 On its part, the EPDP Branch for Frankfurt and Environs held its regular monthly meeting on 25 March with an educational topic as its main agenda item. Prepared and presented by Tadesse Asmelash, the branch chairman, the three-hour long educational discussion focused on provisions related to three stages in the struggle as enshrined in the EPDP Political Programme adopted at the Second Congress in the summer of 2015. The three stages covered in the discussion paper were:

 

  • The current struggle for first removing the dictatorial regime in Eritrea;
  • The common task of all national forces in the transitional period (after the fall of the regime). Priority tasks enumerated in the EPDP Political Programme include guaranteeing peace and security, and the building of institutions that would guarantee the future democratic state, and
  • Thirdly, the political, economic and social pillars of a constitutional government in post-dictatorship Eritrea.

The Eritrean government is accusing Qatar of increasing tension along the Eritrea- Sudan border by sending aircraft to Sudan and backing dissidents in the area. [see below]

This follows the Sudanese deployment of thousands of troops in Kassala State in eastern Sudan.

A previous article provided some background to the story. Sudan has not provided an explanation for what has taken place.

As it will be recalled,the fabricated news of “the deployment of Egyptian troops in Sawa”, and the subsequent closure of the border by Sudan that “this event ostensibly triggered” was recycled and amplified with high drama recently.   But the story did not end there.  In these times where past events fast evade memory, it may be useful to reiterate the fundamental truths occasionally so that the public is not confused. In this respect:

•    In early January, the State of Qatar gave the Sudanese Defence Forces three Mig jet aircrafts that were subsequently deployed in Kassala.  This was purportedly done to “thwart an attack from Eritrea that would be unleashed with the support of the United Arab Emirates”   The pilots for the three Mig fighter planes being two Qataris and an Ethiopian.  The Sudanese Security and Intelligence apparatus is in charge of the operations, including determining specific missions as well as overall administration.

•    In early February, the followers (the full list is available) of the radical Islamic Cleric, Mohammed Jumma, opened an office, under extreme secrecy, in a secluded area to organize political and military activities as well as to train their members.  Funding of their activities is provided by the Embassy of Qatar in Khartoum.  Training and other logistical functions are managed by the Sudanese Security and Intelligence Service.

•    At the beginning of March, a delegation of Qatari military officers, led by the Ambassador of Qatar in Khartoum, Rashid Bin Abdurahman Alnueimi, paid a visit to the “Joint Sudanese-Ethiopian Defense Unit”, to inspect its operations and gauge the security situation in the Kassala area.   This outfit was recently established by the Sudanese and Ethiopian Armed Forces with the funding from Qatar.
The question is why does Qatar involve itself in such senseless intricacies?
