Ethiopia reports influx of Eritrean refugees fleeing oppression
ADDIS ABABA (AFP) — Ethiopia claimed on Saturday it was receiving an influx of around 600 Eritreans fleeing political oppression in their country every month.
"The ministry said many are fleeing their country and each month more than 600 Eritreans are crossing the border into Ethiopia to seek refuge. The figure is increasing alarmingly," Ethiopia's information ministry said in a statement.
"The Eritrean people cannot bear the burden of the dictatorial regime any more because it has allied itself with terrorists and has driven them to great poverty and endless suffering."

Let us not get carried away about let us rejoin and we are one people etc. The poor people who are migrating to Ethiopia is because they can't Isaias oppression and not the idea of an independent Eritrea. Many Eritreans lived most of their lives in Sudan because of Hailesellasie, Menghistu cruelty to their villages. Isaias is doing the same as he is blinded by his foolish competition with Weyane and especially Meles. He thinks he was given the respect and gratefullness for cultivating Weyane to climb to rule Ethiopia. Now he became so irrational that he does not even care if most of the people leave his rule. But make no mistake about it, the people are temporarly migrating from a bad situatio to marginally better one. Once Isaias is history as the AMericans say it: HOME is Sweet HOME and in no time the people will reverse the direction of migration. Comments are closed for this post.
