Cycling Tour for the Truth, Peace, Justice and Eritrea
STOCKHOLM, FRANKFURT, and GENEVA -- March 07, 2015 The Cycling Tour for
the Truth, Peace, Justice and Eritrea will begin in Sweden on Tuesday,
March 31, 2015 on a more than 1700 km bike ride that will end in Geneva
on Monday the 13th of April. In Geneva the cyclists will deliver a
memorandum to the UN on the occasion of the 13th anniversary of the
final and binding Eritrea-Ethiopia Boundary Commission (EEBC)
delimitation decision that Ethiopia refuses to abide by in breach of
international law.
Twenty five cyclists from ten different countries (Eritrea, Canada,
Denmark, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland
and the UK) will be cycling through eight German and three Swiss cities
covering over 1700 km and along the way highlighting the truth about
Eritrea and its people and how, despite repeatedly being wronged by the
west, the country is forging forward and has become an oasis of peace
and harmony in the Horn of Africa.
They will be calling for an immediate and unconditional implementation
of the 13-year old, final and binding, boundary decision and an end to
Ethiopia's illegal occupation of sovereign Eritrean territories,
including the town of Badme. Furthermore, they will call for an end to
the illegal UN sanctions imposed on Eritrea based on totally fabricated
and falsified "evidence" by Ethiopia and its western enablers.
Along the way, they will deliver memoranda to local officials, talk to
the media, meet with friends of Eritrea, and will also spend time with
members of Eritrean communities whose families are affected by
Ethiopia's continued illegal occupation of Eritrean territory and by the
illegal UN sanctions.
