EPDP's Frankfurt Branch Holds End-of-Year Meeting

The tireless Frankfurt Branch of the Eritrean People's Democratic Party (EPDP), which is one of the most regular and active party branches in organizing meetings on schedule, held its last 2016 encounter on 20 November and decided to resume  New Year meetings as of 15 January 2017.

Opened by branch chairman, Tadesse Asmelash, who saluted and praised the historic contributions to the struggle by the recently fallen party comrade, Osman Ahmed in Kassala, the meeting raised discussed the significance of a number of major events of the year just ending.

The branch meeting reviewed the worsening hardships faced by the Eritrean people inside the homeland and the regime's recent intensification of its wrong doings that only prevent farmers from collecting harvest in peace and traders from succeeding in their efforts. The intensified wrong measures did result in forcing citizens to leave the country in big numbers.

Also discussed was the repressive regime's lie to members of the Eritrean Defence Forces who were promised to receive higher payments but finally saw those 'increases' taken back under different excuses.

The Frankfurt branch also hailed the massive demonstrations organized in Geneva, New York and many other places exposing the political and human rights violations of the cruel Eritrean dictatorship. It commended the reports of  the UN Human Rights Council and its inquiry commission on Eritrea and hoped the regime will face accountability for its crimes one day. The meeting also took time to review and commend the international efforts of the party to further expose the regime by taking part at global conferences like the one held in Brussels on 17-18 October 2016.  

At ending its meeting, the branch heard a strong appeal to Eritrean youths by young Kubrom Andom who reminded his age-group to redouble their struggle taking the opportunities provided by democratic countries where they have taken temporary refuge from the dictatorship in Eritrea.
