The USA’s message is not only for PIA/PFDJ government. It is for the so called EDA, the Ethiopian government satellite tag too. The USA government has all necessary information. Thus, not surprisingly, I have a slightly different take on it although no disrespect intended since most of you and I had the same basic understandings

If American government belive peace and democracy in eritrea you should be to changes american foreign police
.If united state stands with eritrean people for peace and democracy we needs only to finalized our border issue.
Eritrean people paid s big price to bring peace democracy and freedom for the last sixty years wrong roadmap of american foreign policy. So we need honest partnership police.
Eritrean poeple and government lovers of peace and democracy. So if you fixed your policy welcome any time.
Thanks!!!

what an idiot? As if US need permition to come to Eritrea or asking desperatly to befriended with Eritrea? Grow up and stop writing until then. If you don’t like the press release it is your problem but almost every Eritrean is delighted by the honorable mr karry. HGDEF dogs do you know who is lobbing in DC for foregiveness? Paying lot of money. Your boss the mad man sent his dogs to say please I am going to behave pls foregive me. I am glad they knew the true colour of wedi berad.

I don’t understand why many commentators are making a big deal about Kerry few sentences. For the last few years young Eritreans have became victims of human traffickers in Sinai the voice of agony and asking for help was so loud but nothing has been done by Kerry, and for that matter there was no any attempt to trace the traffikers and rescue the victims, now in a short period of time the Defense Department’s addition of an unmanned aerial vehicle and 80 Air Force airmen to U.S. efforts supporting Nigeria’s search for over 200 missing schoolgirls has turned the mission into an air operation. I wish and pray the safety of the missing school girls, but as Eritreans don’t we ponder instead of praising and clapping…

America’s and the West’s policy towards the Horn of Africa and the Middle East has two sides. The first one is to prevent terrorism from reaching their soil. The second is to make sure goods and services flow uninterruoted to the West through the Suez Canal. Eritrea is not the only country with problems in attaining democracy and justice, many countries are and America is least bothered about that side of problem.

if you push it a little further, how can we play positive roll on this gigantic goods and services flow to Our advantage? How can we put Our services and goods in that voyage too to get a good deal of incommes for Our nations? Alshaba’s way or civilized way? Regardless what the western policy is still the world is a Nice Place to live in. Why all most all countries participate in buying and selling in this gigantic trade rute, why alshaba and isayas only be on the way and sarifice innocent People. Alshaba and isayas they only do the talk and sacrifices innocent Citizens of Somalia and eritreans directly or indirectly.
Why do you think all eritreans who left Eritrea the last 23 years goo to the west, to gate a tiny winny part of the share of the result of that huge service and goods goese under Our nose. Even disturbing the root for some advantage is good but for only destroyng the nations With out effecting the root is a Complete idiocy.
What does Eritrea get in fighting usa’s foriegn policy? Besides i ma not sure all usa’s policy is directed to wipe Eritrea from the plante. Why not a Peace talk With Ethiopia directly, the cheapest and the smartest!?
Why the Peace talk is more scarry than the outcome?
Are there issues that pfdjs dont want to be heard out in the world?

Thanks to Secretary of State, John Kerry and to all the peace loving Americans, the government and people of the United States for standing against the mad dog tyrant dictator Isayas, his blind followers HIGDEF.
A friend in need is a real friend indeed. You stood against the mad dog dictator Isayas and his blind followers HIGDEF.
You stood beside us in our continued search for the promise of a free, prosperous, and democratic Eritrea.

In my opinion, they were carefully crafted to reflect the contemporary conditions, in both countries. He didn’t wish any good to the “government of Eritrea”, if you call it as such.

Mr Justice
Whether or not U.S.A wished good to government of Eritrea we the people are coming right at Him to make Issayas and his cronies sleep for good.
It may take time more than we intended but believe you me it will happen.
The 2nd offenders in the list which are co-operating the blood sucking monster are our mothers and sisters and we leave this to ignoranes for now.
