#Eritrea has been a pariah state for its conflict with all its neighbors and went through more than a decade long sanction that have started in #IGAD #AU & by #UNSC for its role of destabilizing the region; direct involvement in arms and contraband trading; &supporting #Al-Shabab

. @AbiyAhmedAli, nominated and subsequently appointed as PM by the “late” ruling coalition EPRDF, on 2 April 2018; following the four years of street protests, that multiple report had been indicating the involvement of foreign forces, including #Eritrea.

Immediately Abiy initiated rapprochement with #Eritrea. To the surprise of everyone, despite Eritrea’s consistent position of handing over the disputed territories before initiating any normalization for almost 2 decades, agreed to the normalization without any pre-condition.

Abiy visited Eritrea and Esayas reciprocated with an official visit after 20 years; and the unholy matrimony was consummated with a Comprehensive peace and cooperation agreement neither ratified by the parliament nor known its content by anyone.

Unprecedented in the history of the #UNSC #Ethiopia replaced its PR to the UN DR. Tekeda with only 6 months left to its term, by @TayeAtske with the singular mission of lifting the sanction imposed on #Eritrea without any change of behavior from the side of the regime in #Asmara.

On the top of extremely secretive nature of the agreement, with many official visits, secret flights & meetings, the regime in Addis & Asmara have been jointly planning to revenge to the #Tigray people & #TPLF that both consider is an obstacle to their individual ambitions.

A Week before the declaration of #WarOnTigray Abiy regime, #PIA had an official visit in Addis & to the displeasure of sensible Ethiopians, allowed to visit highly classified military establishments not allowed to Ethiopians with low security clearance let alone sovereign leader

In an effort of finding a pretext to wage war on Tigray, Abiy regime attributed a claim of ethnic based attack in Welega without any investigation, to the TPLF; and further, the attack on the Northern Command to collaborate his pretext

#WarOnTigray is a result of joint preparation of almost 3 years. The international community should rectify the grave mistake the #UNSC has made in lifting the sanction on #Eritrea without precondition in the absence of any change of behavior by the regime.  #EritreaOutOfTigray
