Ethiopia: Govt Worried Over Djibouti Port Tariff Plan
Land-locked Ethiopia sent its top trade official to Djibouti on Wednesday after the Red Sea state said it would introduce a new tariff on port services.
An Ethiopian government source told The Daily Monitor that Trade and Industry Minister Girma Birru was dispatched after Djibouti unveiled plans to introduce the tariff with effect from August 15.
The country's port is Ethiopia's main gateway for imports and exports after it lost the Red Sea ports of Assab and Masawa when Eritrea won its independence from Ethiopia in 1991.
Ethiopian officials say Djibouti earns about $300 million a year for handling some 4.6 million tones of Ethiopian goods.
Comment: Ethiopia's territorial integrity must be restored now!!! Ethiopia must have an access to the Sea now!!! Three Hundred million dollars could be used to build Hydro-electric powers that could help meet the energy needs of the country. The ports and territories given up by the current government with out the wills of the Ethiopian people must be reinstated now. When Ethiopians raised questions to why the government gave up the ports and land-locked the country, the response from the government officials was that we could use Djibouti's ports, as if it was free of charge! Now we are at the mercy of this tiny Islamic country!!! Ethiopia is in trouble and the trouble has just started!!!

Ethiopia, Eritrea can't agree on border
THE HAGUE, Netherlands - An international commission trying to settle a boundary dispute between Ethiopia and Eritrea ended its work Friday after the rival neighbors failed to agree on a new border in a region beset by escalating tensions.
On Friday, the commission issued a statement citing a decision made a year ago that if the neighbors failed to agree, the 2002 border it set "continues as the only valid legal description of the boundary" and said the commission's mandate "can then be regarded as fulfilled."
Comment: Ethiopia must not accept this decision just for the following reasons:
A) Eritrea has violated the Algiers agreement by occupying the demilitarized zone, which makes the agreement invalid.
B) The Ferenj can't make a border decision for Ethiopia based on the Italian colonialist's greed to grab and occupy our territory. Ethiopia with a population of about 80, 000, 000 must have an access to the sea, which is hers.
C) Ethiopia's border lies along the Red Sea coast.
If we Ethiopians continue to accept decisions made in Europe and Washington and allow them to give away our lands, then the country that we know as Ethiopia which lies along the Read Sea coast will be erased from the map of the earth in our lifetime.
Meles and his party gave away Eritrea and now kinijit leaders are endorsing separatist rebels in Ogaden once again to cede a big chunk of our territory!!
