Reuters.com - Expelled Eritreans seek damages from Ethiopia

Expelled Eritreans seek damages from Ethiopia

Sun Aug 19 23:28:37 UTC 2007 By Jack Kimball ASMARA (Reuters) - Standing in a muddy courtyard, 65-year-old Letezai Tewolde-Bahta's eyes dart back and forth as she stares at a doorway leading to Eritrea's legal office. One of thousands of Eritreans deported from Ethiopia during the two countries' border war of 1998-2000, she opens up a green identity card and points to the granddaughter she says she carried across the front lines. "The Ethiopians came in the middle of the night and they took us to prison for three days. Then I was deported along with the rest of my family," said Letezai, who had lived in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa, for 40 years. "They took everything from us. Then they took us to the border. There must have been 30 buses," the Eritrean housewife said. In her weathered hands she holds papers from her past life in Ethiopia -- proof, Eritrean lawyers argue, that she was one of 70,000 dual national Eritreans expelled during the war, in which a similar number of people died. In a peace deal signed in Algiers in 2000, the two countries agreed to submit to binding arbitration by a claims commission and a boundary commission in The Hague. While the independent boundary commission has made its final decision, the claims commission -- set up to assess war damages -- has yet to make a final ruling. In the last few weeks, thousands of Eritreans who lived in Ethiopia before the conflict have lined the streets outside the legal office in Asmara and in other cities across the Horn of Africa nation. They hope the Eritrea-Ethiopia Claims Commission will give them back what they say was stolen by Ethiopia. Many say they have lost all they had -- money, homes and businesses -- but so far no compensation has been forthcoming. Ethiopia is also preparing claims for damages against Eritrea at the commission. While no figures have been released, Eritrea estimated in 2005 its claims could exceed $500 million, or half the country's gross domestic product for that year. Eritrean lawyers say deportee claims will be the largest. "It's important, because so many lost so much. Some of these people lost millions of U.S. dollars," said lawyer Ruta Ghebremichael, 23. The Commission has yet to receive all the financial claims from either side and is not expected to rule on how much should be paid until some time next year. "WE LOST EVERYTHING" Wearing an Adidas jacket and U.S. college basketball hat, Melake Yhidego, 40, enters a tiny office in a run-down one-storey building next to Eritrea's legal office. After waiting in line for most of the morning, Melake sits down in a chair facing one of a team of Eritrean lawyers working on the claim forms. Like many expellees, he said he was arrested before being deported from Ethiopia, where he had lived for 30 years. "My wife and child were deported one month before I was. We only met in Asmara," the former driver said. "This is our money. This is what we worked for so it's a must that Ethiopia pays. We're not begging, this is ours." The Commission -- part of the Permanent Court of Arbitration set up to settle international disputes -- angered Eritrea when in 2005 it blamed Asmara for triggering the war by attacking Badme town on May 12, 1998. The small, dusty town was awarded to Asmara by the boundary commission, set up by the Algiers peace deal to mark the Eritrea-Ethiopia border. Ethiopia initially rejected the decision. Addis Ababa now accepts the frontier ruling, but wants more discussion -- a move Eritrea vehemently rejects. The border stalemate has ratcheted up tensions along the 1000-km (600-mile) border and Eritrean lawyers said the dispute may affect the claims decision. "It's hard to see how the claims commission's final judgment can be implemented when one of the parties is still refusing to comply with the boundary commission," said Lea Brilmayer, a U.S. lawyer advising the government. In the crowded corridor, housewife Letezai shared the skepticism, echoing the concerns of many expellees. "We lost everything, and we want it to be known," she said. "The Ethiopians deported us from our houses so why should we believe that they'll pay us," she added before turning her attention back to the slow-moving line.

Ethiopia says preparing for any Eritrean invasion

Thu Jun 28 13:57:53 UTC 2007 (Adds aid official) By Tsegaye Tadesse ADDIS ABABA, June 28 (Reuters) - Ethiopia is making military preparations for any possible invasion by arch-foe and neighbour Eritrea, with whom it fought a devastating border war in 1998-2000, Prime Minister Meles Zenawi said on Thursday. "It is deemed necessary to make the necessary military preparation for deterring a possible Eritrean invasion and to repulse such an invasion should it occur," Meles told parliament. Meles gave no specific information of any new threat, but his comments ratcheted up long-hostile rhetoric between the two Horn of Africa nations. Eritrean Information Minister Ali Abdu dismissed the comments. "This is just posturing which has resulted from paranoia," he told Reuters by telephone from Asmara. After a three-decade guerrilla conflict, Eritrea became independent from Ethiopia in 1993. Their subsequent war, over a border of barren plains and dusty villages, cost 70,000 lives. Unresolved tensions over the border have been compounded in the last year by differences between Eritrea and Ethiopia over Somalia -- where they back different sides -- and Addis Ababa's accusations that Asmara is arming anti-Meles rebel groups. "It's obvious the government of Eritrea will never miss an opportunity to carry out aggression against Ethiopia should there be an opportunity," Meles said. Eritrea's Abdu accused Meles of trying to divert attention from internal problems in Ethiopia, where an opposition crackdown is fuelling tensions, and its involvement in Somalia. Meles said the activity of "terrorists" there had forced him to slow down Ethiopia's withdrawal from its neighbour. BORDER STALEMATE Ethiopia and Eritrea are at a political stalemate over a post-war 2002 ruling by an independent boundary commission. Ethiopia rejects the ruling, which gave a flashpoint town to Eritrea, and wants new talks. Asmara says Addis Ababa and the international community must abide by the decision. The United Nations, which has sent peacekeepers to the contentious border area, says both sides have put more than 5,000 soldiers into the border zone this year. One Western aid official specialising in the Horn of Africa noted a shift in Meles' rhetoric regarding Eritrea. But he said Ethiopia's entanglement in Somalia was likely to inhibit any immediate move towards war. "Meles talks about preparation rather than readiness and that's new," said the official, who declined to be named. He said Meles may have been responding to Eritrea's decision this week to recall all men under the age of 50 who have completed national service for more military training. Analysts say tension between Ethiopia and Eritrea may deteriorate further in the run-up to a November deadline, set by the boundary commission, for the two to demarcate their border. If they fail to do so themselves, the boundary drawn by the commission will stand and U.N. troops are likely to be withdrawn, the aid official said. "Meles is maybe indicating to the United Nations they should reconsider the decision to leave," he added. The Ethiopian leader said Eritrea lacked the political will to resolve the problem through peaceful means. He also reinforced his hardline stance on the Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) and Oromo Liberation Front rebels, whom he accuses Eritrea of supporting. "From now on, we will take the responsibility to protect the people and the country against armed bandits engaged in destruction and violence," he said.
