Eritrea to send a delegation to Ethiopia for talks

 

Eritrean president announced that Eritrea shall dispatch a delegation to Addis Abeba to a constructive engagement with Ethiopia. President Isaias Afewerki made the remarks during the Martyrs Day celebrations today.

“We will send a delegation to Addis Abeba to gauge current developments directly and in depth and to chart out a plan for continuous future action,” President Isaias said, adding, “The events and developments that have unfolded in our region in general and in Ethiopia in particular in the recent period warrant appropriate attention.”

It was the first response from Eritrea to Ethiopia’s renewed engagement this month to honour all the terms of a peace deal that ended a 1998-2000 war between the Horn of Africa neighbours.
