The disarming of #TPLF will permit the physical demarcation of the #Ethiopia-#Eritrea border that should have taken place 20 years ago, and the satisfaction of the 2018 peace agreement between Abiy and Isaias. Why would #Eritrea perceive itself to be a loser in this?
#Eritrea may dislike the lifting of the terror designation on #TPLF. But the failure of TPLF’s war project means its future as a political party is bleak. Hard to see how it could ever again pose any meaningful threat to Eritrea’s national security.
The reality is that the peace will clear a pathway for Addis to the sea, increasing trade and creating wealth for #Eritrea, #Ethiopia and #Tigray — indeed, Tigray stands to become a bridge between two prosperous nations. There’s much to be gained by all.
