SHAEBIA: OUR BADGE OF HONOR November 10, 2026 | By Biniam Tsegai Ethiopian expansionists invoke Shaebia with contempt, forgetting it represents the people who secured Eritrea’s independence. Their insults awaken national pride, unity, and determination. Yesterday Shaebia, today Shaebia, tomorrow Shaebia! Eritrea’s sovereignty remains nonnegotiable, and its people remain resolute.

SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT: ERITREA’S CONSTRUCTIVE ROLE IN REGIONAL STABILITY November 10, 2026 | By Adulis Tecle Contrary to Ethiopia’s accusations, Eritrea has consistently supported a united, stable Ethiopia.

Former Professor of political science Alemayehu G. Mariam's Imperial Nostalgia and Refusal to Swallow Eritrean Sovereignty by Ghidewon Abay Asmerom (@Ghidewon) I recently came across two articles on X (formerly Twitter) that left me wondering whether the author was deliberately rewriting history or had become so entangled in his own contradictions that he could no longer distinguish between international law, imperial nostalgia, and wishful thinking. The author is Alemayehu G. Mariam, a former professor of political science at California State University, San Bernardino, who prefers to go by the Americanized name Al Mariam.

WE WILL TELL OUR OWN STORY: AN ERITREAN PATRIOT ON JOURNALISM, SOVEREIGNTY, AND PEACE November 5, 2026 | By David Yeh Journalism should illuminate truth, not deepen hostility or reinforce political prejudice.

ABIY AHMED’S CHAKA PALACE AND URBAN CORRIDORS MONUMENTAL AMBITION, POLITICAL POWER, AND THE LESSONS OF HISTORY November 5, 2026 | By PI Demoz From Mussolini’s Rome to Ceaușescu’s Bucharest, monumental architecture served political power at enormous human cost. Abiy Ahmed’s urban corridors echo troubling historical patterns: forced evictions, destroyed neighborhoods, and cultural erasure.

ABIY AHMED: NARCISSISM, POWER, AND THE TRAGEDY OF A NATION November 5, 2026 | By Tedros Goitom From Nobel Peace Prize laureate to a leader presiding over conflict and fragmentation, Abiy Ahmed embodies the dangers of unchecked ambition.

ERITREA’S ROAD TOWARDS AN ORGANIC STATE AND ITS INSTITUTIONAL REALITY June 10, 2026 | By Mihreteab Medhanie Eritrea’s institutions are not absent; they are organically rooted in its liberation struggle, national unity, self-reliance, and historical experience. Genuine state-building must be judged by institutional effectiveness, sovereignty, stability, and development, not merely Western electoral models. Durable institutions evolve through indigenous priorities, not imported political formulas.

ETHIOPIA’S OVERTLY DECLARED WAR AGENDA AGAINST ERITREA from shabait.com Ethiopia’s senior political and military officials have repeatedly threatened to seize Eritrea’s sovereign Red Sea ports, openly invoking force and territorial expansion. These declarations violate fundamental principles of international law and endanger regional peace. The international community must reject aggression, defend Eritrea’s sovereignty, and prevent another devastating war in the Horn of Africa.

ERITREA’S COVETED GEOPOLITICAL LOCATION AND IRREPLACEABLE STRATEGIC ROLE IN THE RED SEA AND THE HORN OF AFRICA Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the State of Eritrea Research and Documentation Division 29 October 2026 Eritrea’s geopolitical significance and strategic role is deeply rooted in its geography, history, and the resilience of its people and statehood. From the earliest human migrations and the development of ancient civilizations to the emergence of the modern international system, the territory of present-day Eritrea has occupied an important position at the crossroads of Africa, the Middle East, and the wider world. Its strategic importance, already considerable in antiquity (part of this history is covered in the book ‘Periplus of the Erythraean Sea’), has assumed even greater significance in the modern era, particularly following the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869.

AFRICAN HITLER’S ROAD TO RUIN: WHY ABIY AHMED’S TERRITORIAL AMBITIONS MUST BE STOPPED BEFORE THEY ENGULF THE HORN OF AFRICA By Biniam Tsegai …Why might a leader pursue coercive territorial ambitions when his country faces domestic conflict, economic constraints, and uncertain foreign support? Ethiopia’s pursuit of sovereign Red Sea access under Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed makes that question urgent. From peace loving people perspectives, the answer must begin with Eritrea’s sovereignty, national security, and hard-won independence. …Eritrea’s independence is settled. Assab and Massawa belong to Eritrea, and their future belongs to its people. No historical grievance, imported arsenal, or foreign patron gives Abiy Ahmed authority over that homeland. He must abandon this dangerous course before the dream he sells as Ethiopia’s salvation becomes the disaster its children inherit.

ERITREA WAS NOT BROKEN THEN AND WILL NOT BE BROKEN TOMORROW HISTORY BEARS WITNESS By Ahmed Ibrahim History has a way of exposing the folly of those who mistake a nation’s suffering for its defeat, its patience for weakness, and its desire for peace for a willingness to surrender. Few nations illustrate this truth more powerfully than Eritrea. … To declare that Eritrea was never broken is not to deny the depth of that suffering, minimize the sacrifices of its people, or pretend that its long struggle for independence was free of setbacks, divisions, and painful reversals.

ETHIOPIA: NOBEL PEACE PRIZE RECIPIENT STIRS UP TROUBLE IN THE HORN OF AFRICA By Martin Zimmermann Since early October, reports of an escalating threat of war in the Horn of Africa have dominated the headlines, with Ethiopia at the center of the growing tensions. …There are three other landlocked countries in the world that maintain their own navies: Bolivia, Paraguay, and Laos. …The time has come for the UN, the AU, and other influential actors on the international stage to take an unequivocal stand and make it clear to the Ethiopian government that respecting Eritrea’s sovereignty and territorial integrity is not optional but an obligation under international law.

WE HAVE SEEN ENOUGH WAR! MUST ANOTHER GENERATION DIE? By Mebrak Ghebreweldi I am writing this with tears in my eyes and memories that have haunted me for more than forty years.

BRINKMANSHIP IN THE HORN OF AFRICA: A DANGEROUS GAMBLE WITH REGIONAL CONSEQUENCES By Tedros Goitom … In recent years, Ethiopia’s leadership under Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed has increasingly relied on confrontational rhetoric, military campaigns, and coercive approaches to address problems that are fundamentally political, structural, and historical in nature. The consequences have been devastating. … The greatest irony of the present moment is that policies ostensibly pursued in the name of strengthening the Ethiopian state may be accelerating its fragmentation.

AS THE HORN OF AFRICA FACES A CROSSROADS, ERITREA RESISTS THE CURRENT By Sirak Kifle …The Horn of Africa is undoubtedly at an existential turning point.

DELUSIONS FROM THE PRECIPICE: ABIY’S HORRIFIC HUMAN AND FINANCIAL PRICE OF PROLONGED, VIOLENT HUBRIS By Abraha T.
