Eritrea.
In a seminar conducted in London UK on Sunday 17th January 2010, The
Eritrean Community in the United Kingdom, denounced US sanctions imposed in the
name of Security Council and affirmed their readiness to defend their nation
and stand alongside their people and government. The seminar was attended, by
the Eritrean ambassador to the United Kingdom and Ireland Mr. Tefamicael
Gerahtu, Ms. Haregu Tesfamariam Head of Public affairs at the Embassy of Eritrea in UK ,
community elders, religious leaders and over 1500
Eritreans.
He said, Eritrea has come through successive
obstacles and animosities in the past 60 years and
the disguised hostilities have continued by the US administrations against the
Eritrean people. He carried on saying that, history is witness of the Eritrean
people’s triumph to the fact that they have always prevailed against all odds
and that they will steadfastly overcome the recent US engineered
unjust and illegal sanctions.
With the cultured and rule abiding people and leadership
that has progressive and realistic policies, Eritrea has become exemplary
that those who have agenda of domination and particularly the USA, have openly
become hostile against the Eritrean people.
He further underlined that the resolution in
the name of Security Council is designed to sabotage the dynamic development
achievements registered in Eritrea through the concerted efforts of people,
Government as well as members of the Eritrean Defense Force (EDF). The
ambassador also reminded the participants that, our biggest
responsibility to the Eritrean martyrs is to never compromise Eritrea’s
national security.

enhance their contribution towards the ongoing nation building process and that
they will always stand alongside their people and Government and will rebuff any external conspiracies by strengthening their unity
and will defend their nation whatever the cost.
They further affirmed that the development endeavors being
undertaken on the basis of self-reliance and the nation’s independent political
path would not be hampered by external conspiracy.
