In a resolution adopted on Wednesday, the Security Council asked Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to re-establish the eight-member Monitoring Group on Eritrea and Somalia until November 25, 2014.

World Bulletin/News Desk

The Un Security CoUncil extended the mandate of the United Nations expert panel monitoring compliance with sanctions against Somalia and Eritrea by 16 months.

In a resolution adopted on Wednesday, the Security CoUncil asked Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to re-establish the eight-member Monitoring Group on Eritrea and Somalia Until November 25, 2014.

The group, which monitors compliance with the embargoes on the delivery of weapons and military equipment to Somalia and Eritrea, also investigates any seaport operations in Somalia that could generate revenue for the militant group known as Al-Shabaab that controls some Somali territory.

The Security CoUncil in 1992 imposed an embargo on all deliveries of weapons and military equipment to Somalia.

In March, the CoUncil partially lifted the weapons ban for one year to boost the Somalian government’s capacity to protect areas recovered from Al-Shabaab and defend against fresh attempts by such groups to destabilize the coUntry.

The resolution indicated that the arms embargo would not apply to arms or equipment sold or supplied solely for the development of the government’s security forces, but it kept its restrictions in place on heavy weapons, such as surface-to-air missiles.

Charcoal ban

The 15-member CoUncil also expressed its concern at reports of continuing violations of the charcoal ban by member states and stressed that it is willing to take action against those which violate the ban.

It also reiterates that a charcoal export ban applies to all charcoal from Somalia, whether or not it originated in the coUntry, and requested AMISOM to support and assist Somali authorities in preventing the export of charcoal from the coUntry.

      • HGDEF July 26, 2013

        Hahahaha An “Eritrean” who spends 24/7 inuslting Eritrea and Eritreans! Retarded is he who believes that you are an Eritrean.

      • Said July 26, 2013

        Wadi afewreik the dictator get tied withe western, how do we fight with this dictator, geve me same kind solution, it sounds like we got the finger, new hope what would you suggest, if the Eritrean people not wake up.in side Eritrea. we know how to fight easily, but we don’t get the solution, and we talk too much, I wanna see your plan.united . against dictator.

        • NEW HOPE ERITREA July 26, 2013

          Respected Said ,

          This is my solution.The young people need to divorce themselves from the old goats (my age bracket). The history you heard is different versions and most likely invented.Let the hopeless individuals say what they want ,FIRST & FOREMOST ,KNOW & RESPECT OF YOUR TRIBAL ,ETHNIC ORIGIN & IDENTITY. THAT WILL CONNECT YOU MORE with the rest of Eritrean people….LOVE ,CHARITY,DISCIPLINE BEGINS AT HOME .iF ONE IS FROM ADIKEIH ,kEREN ,DIBARWA ,BARENTU..LET HIM/HER SAY IT WITHOUT SHAME.IT DOES NOT MAKE ONE SUPERIOR OR INFERIOR.RESEARCH BOOKS WRITTEN ,PREFFEREBLY by EUROPEANS AND SOME CITZENS.
          Firstly ,free yourselves & have a principle .You can not save others while being ,,slaves of fake history ,fake identity (usually hizbe tigrinya crap),..and being filled of hate of your ancestors in Sudan ,Ethiopia ;Djibouti ,Saudi Arabia..etc
          PFDJ is the main problem ,it is that young people need to KNOW WHAT THEY STAND FOR (in detail)than generic free speech & democracy.THESE RIGHTS ARE DIFFERENT IN REALITY /ACTION THAN IN BOOKS:
          STOP PUTTING REGIONAL ,RELIGIOUS OR OTHER DECIDING FACTORS UNDER THE RUG & PRETWENDING THAT THEY DO NOT EXCIST.
          THAT IS THE SOLUTION OF THE OLD GOATS & LOOK WHERE IT HAS PUT YOUNG PEOPLE.
          Emotion is the enemy of Eritrean people ,use it wisely & to your advantage, compromise without giving up your principle .
          ERITREAN PROBLEM IS PSYCHOLOGICAL & EVEN PSYCHIATRIC THAN POLITICAL.
          IMITATE THE PART OF DISCUSSION & EVALUATION OF WOYANE TIGRAY & NOW TO CERTAIN EXTENT IN ETHIOPIA
          .IN SHORT ,BE CONSCIOUS ,ORGANIZED & ARMED (WITH THE TRUTH & WISDOM OR EVEN WEAPONS)
          iN MY OPINION ,ERITREA IS A COUNTRY THAT SHOULD SHOULD HAVE NEVER BE ,BUT PUT ASIDE MY OPINION….ERITREA IS ALMOST A COUNTRY & MAKE THE BEST OUT OF IT.
          If Wedi Ali had suceeded in eliminating DIA & even PFDJ ,our problem would not go away ,because Ethiopia had one Meles ,Eritrea has at least 100.000 Isaiases.

          Your vUncle

          • NEW HOPE ERITREA July 26, 2013

            correction ,
            let the ¨Pfdj is main problem ,read as PFDJ is not the main problem.

            thank you

          • Said July 27, 2013

            Br new hope that’s deep, you’re a brilliant man, don’t lit that feeling hold u if talking abut the old fox thay get Eritrea on the mab.for the young they’re all trying to get democracy. brother all that will change, education is the key. someday we’ll going to have to talk and have a cup of coffee maybe in Asmara. let’s wark united against dictator.

    suffocate that dictator, he need to get hit in the head, he’s devil in the snake. come on with it Bankmoan.

  • Yerhiwo July 25, 2013

    Why is the UN waiting from charging the terrorist dictator Isaias Afwerki in the international court? Wedi Medhin Berad is not only a terrorist who is affiliated with Al-Shabab, who is also a killer!! He has killed many of his comrades in the field before and after so called the “independence”.

    Many eritreans are daily raped, tortured, abused, arrested, lost dignity, etc. under his watch!! Eritrea is a living hell under this mafia guy with his cronies Hagos Kisha and Yemane Monkey who are all from Tigray!!

    • The Truth July 25, 2013

      It’s waiting for a little something called evidence. None of what would be presented would suffice in a court of law. Only the naive and gullible believe these lies peddled by the UN.

      • MightyEmbasoyra July 25, 2013

        Well, the evidence would be easier to get if the resolution was about human rights violation inside Eritrea. That shows you, this is not about the Eritrean people.

  • Semhar July 25, 2013

    As long as Isayas, his son and HIGDEF rule Eritrea this will continue.
    The only solution is to get reed of Isayas, his son and his blind followers HIGDEF just like the Libyans did to Gadafi and his sons.
    Eritreans should unite and get reed the tyrant Isayas, his son and his blind followers HIGDEF.

    • The Truth July 27, 2013

      I think it would suffice to state, you are not Eritrean because no Eritrean openly advocates for the killing of other Eritreans. Pathetic attempt to divide us. Won’t work.

  • Harnetna2013 July 26, 2013

    NHE
    in which side you are !! are you HGDF spy supporter that calling to young people to distrust the oppostion !
    or are you Ethiopian, because you fear the future of Eritrea will be democratic and that the TBIT Ethiopian will be droped, because we know Ethiopians never like the united of Eritrean, this is because that they want to see Eritrea and its people.
    i am 100% sure that you have jealousness of Eritreans just in the name of Eritrean, despite we are in the hands of one man ruler who is coming to Eritrea in the same way you are doing now.
    We are more bright now and we know almost all Tegaru pretend to be called Eritrea and trying to enter in our case, but we know you all from your intentions, we are not longer silly but we know also we are in a great difficult just due to of the Tgraway Isaias Afwerki pretending to be Eritrean and ruling the whole people under his knee, however NHE, insulting Eritrean and trying to stop youth to joining to oppostion and fight to the regime is, what you are doing as a serious enemy of Eritreans.You feel like you are the only person that is honest, but trusting Tegaru brings us only the same Eritrea now. Enjoy NHE Eritarea is in your desire now under a criminal gangs regime.

    • NEW HOPE ERITREA July 26, 2013

      HARNETNA,

      Well ,Atleast you have a solution ..that the problem is one Tigraway ,Isaias terrorizing 5,000.000 gutless sh*ts being ruled by one Tigraway .I believe you are insulting us ,Eritreans .ONE TEMBEN GUY RULING US .
      WOW ,I KNOW IT IS ¨TYPICAL¨ERITREAN LOGIC ,BUT MAYBE YOU ARE RIGHT.

      KEEP ON DEBATING BROTHER

  • Truly Truly i say to you July 27, 2013

    No question NEW HOPE ERITREA (NHE) writings talent is simply phenomenal! very impressive and attractive. I all time enjoying riding, despite i know his hidden motives. Because in my behavior even my own enemy when comes with very intelligent way or tactic i somehow give regard and recognition to a person, but that doesn´t mean i will compromise with the facts or stand point i believe, or i late anyone with out contradiction when i see my nation dignity, independence, interest or existence etc, by someone systematically abused or violets.
    Well NHE because talking like Ertrawi he might has reason for his frustration like anyone of us because of Isayas evil did. But my question, why is he dares to tell us as we have fake identity or fake nation all time if he is Ertrawi? In most of his writing NHE only because Isayas abusing power and suppressing our people perversely by denying all basic rights, what he telling us is, “if you need solution and want to be free from all these abasement, it is good for you if reunite with Ethiopia, because he meant we had better life during H/ Selasie and Derg time than Isayas era, but from the the current what he call, you formed independent state and new identity you nothing profit because it is fake.” You are Ethiopian like any rest of Ethiopian provinces is what telling us. Of course not direct, but all his speeches directs to that point.HMMMMMM!

    • HGDEF July 27, 2013

      “I all time enjoying riding, despite i know his hidden motives”
      OMG: It seems like you can enjoy being slaughtered by some one who have good sluaghtering skills! God save you. This man is a Buda killiing you one after one. I am immuned because I am HGDEF who cannot be fooled by Weyane agent. Don’t enjoy when he is insulting one group, because he comes to your group. Don’t enjoy when he insults one region, becuse yours is next.

      Unfortunately, we have many idiots with good writing skills who cant see a meter away from the keyboard.

  • Truly Truly i say to you July 27, 2013

    The second blasphemy from NHE preaching, many times he dares also telling us, as if Eritrea was which ignited the Badme war. But PM Meles self clearly stated the reason for the war as was not a border issue, but it was Currency exchange disagreement and others economical and political reasons were.
    But we know the Amharas specially because they couldn´t swallow the Eritrean independence and Woyane´s leadershipment because they blaming and pressuring was Woyanes, by the situation inforced Woyane just to please Amhara and to get recognition from them was the war ignited by Ethiopian side. Isayas in his side like always from inside, despite continuing systematically sabotaging to reverse the Eritrean independence , but by brave Eritrean army and good generals was leading and resisting the war and the whole people of Eritrea both inside and diaspora was backing our army, two times we humiliated, punished and gave good lesson to the Ethiopian aggression. With that gained victory like the independence time who not pleased person was only Isayas. However after 2 years Woyane good preparation, because was supporting by powerful nations, those brave generals who understood the danger despite they insist Isayas in peaceful means to face it, by rejected their proposal just to to revenge and Exterminate Eritreans and to fulfill his hidden mission, of course this time i wouldn´t say Eritrea but of course Isayas was deliberately who ignited the war by stubborning the US peace plan.
