"Our sea remains open for Ethiopia. However, Ethiopia does not want to use our sea access because they believe it would economically benefit Eritrea. The ego of this government is unlike anything seen elsewhere on the planet."

Martin Plaut has well understood the situation of the region. We Ethiopian and Eritrean have so much in common but our leaders always look for reasons for war.

Saudi Arabia’s decision to invest in Eritrea’s Assab port is not merely an economic initiative—it is a deliberate and calculated step in reshaping regional and global power dynamics. For Ethiopia, the benefits of enhanced infrastructure come with the risk of strategic vulnerability, given its reliance on Saudi-controlled maritime access. In the Horn of Africa, this move will likely spark a reconfiguration of alliances, with regional actors seeking to safeguard their interests amidst growing Saudi influence

Thank you for such a wonderfully informative and good video. You painted both sides very fairly and I learned a lot. As in Eritrean I believe that we should have peace and regime change.
