في الفاتح من يوليو 2017م عقد الأخ/ منقستئاب أسمروم رئيس حزب الشعب الديمقراطي الارتري اجتماعاً جماهيرياً مفتوحاً بمدينة شيكاغو الامريكية. هذا وقد افتتح الاجتماع بتحية الشهداء بالوقوف دقيقة حداداً علي أرواحهم.

بعد ذلك صعد المنصة السيد/ تولدي محاري من فرع إنديانا وألقى كلمة ترحيب وتهنئة حارة بالحضور، ثم دعا الرئيس لمخاطبة الاجتماع.

تناول أسمروم مشروع الحزب للحوار مع وبين فصائل معسكر المعارضة الارترية كموضوع رئيسي للاجتماع، والي جانبه إحدى القضايا المثيرة للجدل في الأوساط المحلية والاقليمية والدولية، ألا وهي مصطلح الدولة/ state/ كمدخل للموضوع الرئيسي للاجتماع.

أوضح الرئيس أنه بما أن الوطن والدولة أو الحكم(state and government) أمران منفصلان عن بعضهما فإن معارضة أو مقاومة الدولة أو الحكومة لا تعني معارضة أو مقاومة الوطن. ثم ذكر أن للدولة 4 أركان مكونة هي الآتي:

1-    الحكومة

2-    الشعب

3-    الأرض

4-    الاعتراف الدولي

1/ الحكومة:ـ

أوضح اسمروم بالتفصيل أن أركان الحكم كلها في ارتريا اليوم من سلطات ثلاثة (التشريعية، التنفيذية، القضائية) وغيرها من أركان وأدوات السلطة تتركز بشكل كامل في يد رجل واحد هو رئيس تلك الحكومة.

2/ الشعب:ـ

شرح اسمروم بالتفصيل أيضاً أن الشعب الارتري اليوم وفي ظل هذه الحكومة المتجبرة يفتقد كل الحريات والحقوق الأساسية معنويةً كانت أو مادية. هذا فضلاً عن التفكك الأسري والهجرة التي يشجع عليها النظام بالتضييق علي المواطن بالداخل لكي يحصل علي ريع تحويلات المهاجرين. 

3/ الأرض:ـ

عن الأرض الارترية قال اسمروم: إن سياسات النظام الرعناء أدت الي وقوع أجزاء عزيزة وعديدة من الوطن تحت سيطرة اثيوبيا، بالإضافة الي أن عدم قدرة النظام علي استرداد تلك الأجزاء بالسلم أو الحرب عرض سيادة ارتريا الوطنية علي أراضيها لخطر بالغ. أضف الي ذلك أنه جعل من الأرض والمياه والأجواء الارترية مسرحاً تسرح وتمرح فيه القوى الأجنبية مما سيصعب معه التعامل مع مخلفات وآثار هذه السياسات الخبيثة مستقبلاً.    

4/ الاعتراف الدولي:ـ

قال اسمروم: إنه وإن نال الشعب الارتري الاعتراف الدولي بالدولة الارترية بعزيمته النضالية الصلبة وبالتصويت بنعم للاستقلال وإن كان ذلك الاعتراف ما يزال قائماً، إلا أن سياسات وتصرفات النظام الهوجاء تعتبر مهدداً قوياُ قد يؤدي الي فقدان هذه الميزة. 

من جهةٍ أخرى أوضح اسمروم أن حزبنا جـِــدُّ قلق علي مستقبل البلاد لما تتعرض له علي يد النظام من وقوف علي شفا التحول الي دولة فاشلة بالإضافة لوجود المعارضة التي هي المنقذ المرتجى من هذا المصير المظلم في أضعف حالاتها.

منطلقاً مما تقدم شرحه قال الرئيس: إن هذه الحالة المزرية التي تمر بها البلاد تجعل من تناسي المعارضة خلافاتها والجلوس علي مائدة الحوار البناء مطلباً عاجلاً غير آجل. كما نبه الي ضرورة تلافي التجارب الوحدوية والحوارية الفاشلة التي سادتها الأنانية وتغليب المصالح الفئوية والشخصية فضلاً عن الفشل في تحديد وترتيب الأولويات.

ولتنفيذ هذا المطلب العاجل أفاد اسمروم الحضور بأن حزبنا لديه مشروع حوار جاد بين كافة مكونات المعارضة السياسية والمدنية يستند علي العمل المشترك في 3 مجالات، هي المجال الدبلوماسي، الاعلامي والجماهيري التعبوي.علي أن تهدف الحوارات الي الآتي:

1-    الحفاظ علي السيادة الوطنية لارتريا

2-    إسقاط نظام الهقدف الدكتاتوري وحل واجتثاث مؤسساته وأدواته القمعية

3-    إبدال النظام الدكتاتوري بنظام شعبي ديمقراطي قائم علي التعددية السياسية.

4-    الإقرار بحكم القانون والحقوق الديمقراطية والحريات الكاملة للشعب.

في ختام الاجتماع ردَّ الرئيس علي أسئلة وتعليقات الحضور، والذين أشادوا بمشروع الحزب للحوار بين قوى المعارضة مقدِّمين في الوقت ذاته إشادة خاصة بحزب الشعب الديمقراطي الارتري لتفرده من بين سائر التنظيمات الارترية بالاهتمام الخاص بعقد الاجتماعات المفتوحة بمدينة شيكاغو.

شارك حزب الشعب الديمقراطي الارتريفي المؤتمر الخاص للحزب الاشتراكي الديمقراطي الألمانيالمنعقد في الخامس والعشرين من يونيو 2017م بمدينة درتموند، يذكر أن هذا الحزب يتمتع بسند جماهيري كبير في انتخابات منصب المستشار الألماني والمزمع إجراؤها في الرابع والعشرين من سبتمبر 2017م.

السيدة/ آديام تفرا عضو المجلس المركزي لحزبنا والناشطة في مجال حقوق المرأة ترأست وفد حزبنا الي مؤتمر ذلك الحزب، هذا وقد حمل الوفد رسالة خطية من رئيس حزبنا الي رئيس الحزب الألماني الصديق.     

تقول الرسالة: سعيدون جداً بأن يتكلل مؤتمركم بالنجاح كما نخبركم أن قضيتنا وطرحنا لحلول قضايا الانسانية يشتركان في كل الأهداف والمبادئ الإنسانية النبيلة.

كما ذكرت الرسالة أن حزبنا أحد مؤسسي التحالف الأممي للأحزاب التقدمية والذي استضاف مؤتمره التأسيسي هذا الحزب بمدينة لايبزغ الألمانية في 2013م. هذا فضلاً عن مشاركة الحزب في المؤتمر السابق للحزب الألماني، كما شارك حزبنا قبل 4 أعوام في إحياء الذكرى ال 150 لتأسيس الحزب الاشتراكي الديمقراطي الألماني.

وأضاف الرئيس: إننا نشيد بالدور الانساني الرائد لحزبكم في دعم دعاة السلم والديمقراطية في بلادنا من تنظيمات ومنظمات سياسية ومدنية تنشط في الخارج.

في ختام رسالته يقول الرئيس: إن الارتريين المتمتعين بحق الانتخاب في المانيا سوف يحشدون كل جهودهم لمساندة الحزب الألماني الصديق.  

شارك في المؤتمر 600 عضو وخمسة آلاف " 5.000" وفد وضيف، وفي خطابه للمؤتمر قال رئيس الحزب السيد/ مارتين شولتز مرشح الحزب لمنصب المستشار، إنهم يهدفون في برنامجهم الانتخابي الي مجانية التعليم، تخفيض الضرائب، الإنتاج الألماني المتوسط، الاستثمار في البنية التحتية، تأييد الوحدة 

On Saturday, 8 July 2017, Menghesteab Asmerom, Chairman of the Eritrean People's Democratic Party (EPDP) held a well-attended public meeting in Seattle, Washington State, at which the currently fragmented situation of the Eritrean opposition camp was hotly and widely debated.

At opening the meeting, Mr. Zemehret Seare, member of the EPDP Seattle branch and the party's Foreign Office Committee Coordinator in North America warmly welcomed  meeting participants and made an interesting presentation supported by power-point display on latest major EPDP activities in the diplomatic sphere. 

 Mr. Menghesteab Asmerom then took the podium to make his wide-ranging remarks that focused on the 4 June 2017 proposal of his party calling upon sister organizations and movements for dialogue aiming to create a working formula for joint work. His talking points were the ones he used at public meetings in the Bay Area, in San Diego and in Chicago.

Following his summary presentation of EPDP's proposal for joint work (for ease of reference, see full text below), the meeting participants voiced timely concerns regarding the delay to remove the evil regime in Asmara and hoped the current proposal for joint work in the spheres of information, public mobilization and diplomacy will see the light of the day.  

Harnnet.org visitors will soon obtain the video recording on the Seattle meeting. Readers are also encouraged to read the full text of the proposal printed below - good reading.***

EPDP Proposal for Joint Work  of the Eritrean Opposition Camp:

In the past 26 years of Eritrea's independent existence, our people have faced multiple harmful challenges threatening the very existence of the nation. It is indisputable that the primary culprit and source of Eritrea's tribulations has been the autocratic PFDJ regime, misnamed the 'People's Front for Democracy and Justice'. However, putting all the blame on the regime does not help in making a national soul-searching and addressing one's own shortcomings in a proper manner. It is time to admit that the failure of the Eritrean opposition camp to play an effective role contributed in the suffering and displacement of the Eritrean people; the opposition camp - the camp of change and justice seekers - so far did very little to shorten the days of absolute  dictatorship in the country.

Nevertheless, one of the positive aspects not to be sidelined is the fact that the opposition camp was able to continue making efforts, albeit limited, in confronting the multiple abuses of the repressive PFDJ regime. The efforts exerted to resolve existing problems and, in particular, the attempts made towards creating coalitions and mergers were equally positive. In our past attempts to create alliances and strengthen the opposition camp, we did reach common understanding on a number of fundamental principles that bind us all. As such, the four principles listed below appear in various documents of the Eritrean camp of change seekers. Those points of common understanding can be taken now as  the basic principles for the joint work proposal being initiated for further deliberations. They are:

1. Protecting Eritrea's territorial sovereignty;
2. Removing the autocratic  PFDJ regime with its organs of repression;
3. Installing a democratic multiparty system of participatory governance;
4. Submitting to rule of law and guaranteeing basic liberties and democratic rights.

As noted, although our past experiences had some positive aspects, yet we could not create an inclusive national body or umbrella. A new start will require our commitment to never let our existing organizations or alignments to hinder the creation of a working relationship for  more effective common action.

The urgency of the present situation obliges us to come out of our boxes. In simple terms, it is time to create a body/umbrella coalescing all forces currently in or outside existing alliances. Only to stress the evident truth, we are called upon to use learned lessons of the past and build a more effective body able to challenge the  abusive  regime in Eritrea.

The alignments we created and tried to work with were, till the present time, adversely affected by a spirit of controversy and rivalry.  This is because we created an unsustainable  situation  in which priorities were not put in order.  

For now, our most immediate task should be the removal of the autocratic regime. In past, instead of concentrating all efforts on this task, we put ourselves in a vicious circle by mixing up short-term objective with long-term objectives that cannot be attained now. And no wonder that, in a situation of controversy and with un-prioritized objectives, the  structures we worked out and the programmes we adopted could not be implemented. If we continue on that path, we will only guarantee long life for the autocratic regime and fail to address the problems of our people.

Therefore, the Eritrean People's Democratic Party (EPDP) finds it timely to call upon all fraternal forces and fellow citizens opposed to the PFDJ regime to join us in trying to come out of the old vicious circle we are in and jointly start a new path that can lead to victory of the people's cause. Based on the understanding that unjustifiable controversies and  mixing up of priorities can lead us nowhere, the EPDP is now presenting this proposal for joint work that should include all concerned, and pledges to do its utmost to promote the agreed upon tasks. 

Needless to say, the primary agenda for the proposed common body or umbrella is the removal of the autocratic regime. All forces coalescing for this agenda shall be expected to do what they can to carry on the new joint body. The measure and weight of each member in the common umbrella shall be its degree of contribution in implementing the joint  tasks.

The existing alliances and parties shall be the building blocks  of the common umbrella  and shall in no way hinder the proper functioning of joint tasks. Therefore, this is a call for starting a serious dialogue among all fraternal forces, a process that should lead to  timely  formation of an effective body  embracing all stakeholders in the struggle.

The common umbrella or body to be formed shall primarily aspire to achieve the following three major tasks:

1. A Joint Foreign Delegation

Our individual efforts in the diplomatic sphere have not been effective. All parties  (governments, organizations, parties) we individually approach have been advising us to meet them as one Eritrean delegation. There is no doubt that a joint/representative Eritrean delegation will make our diplomatic work more effective. Existing Eritrean organizations or parties shall not be obliged to end their ongoing relations in this sphere. But they are  expected to strengthen the work of the joint Eritrean opposition delegation. Although details can be worked out in due course of time, the delegation can consist of members from the Eritrean organizations as well as expert diplomats from outside those member organizations. The joint delegation will be able to represent the Eritrean opposition camp at international conferences and speak/write on its behalf in addition to seeking all-round assistance (political, moral and material) for the umbrella. While working under the umbrella leadership, the foreign delegation can be empowered to take various initiatives as it sees them appropriate.

2. A Common Media Centre

Having a centralized information organ representing the opposition camp is an urgent necessity in light of the fact that our fragmented media outlets are not accomplishing the intended objective. The central information organ, which shall not hinder the member organization from continuing to run their own media outlets, can be staffed by members and media experts from outside the working common umbrella.

 3.  an Organ for Mass Mobilization

This organ shall endeavour to mobilize the people around the opposition camp by reviving the central task of political organizations in educating and organizing participants in the struggle for change. We must acknowledge the fact that mobilization efforts have been initiated at grassroots level in several places by Eritrean activists. However, these commendable initiatives could not be spared from the Eritrean malaise of controversy and negative rivalry. We in the opposition (camp of change and justice seekers) continually resort to unnecessary contention and squabbles instead of cooperating to promote the same national objective. It is appropriate to make self-criticism on this negative attitude, while at the same time bestowing high gratitude and admiration upon those compatriots who are taking initiatives at organizing justice seekers around local councils (baitos) at district and city levels. These efforts must be encouraged at all places around the globe. Eventually, people organized at grassroots level could join their efforts with political and civic organizations and help in drawing clear action plans in removing the repressive regime. The central organ for mass mobilization can be composed by representatives of political organizations and work under the common umbrella. However, it can also closely work in cooperation with the local popular councils/baitos all over the world.

The proposed national umbrella can start with the above listed three objectives but gradually expand its work activities, as needed. Only to reiterate, the EPDP hereby commits itself to start immediate dialogue and work with any Eritrean body accepting this proposal towards forming a joint body/umbrella for joint action.  No Alternative to Joint Action to Remove the Autocratic Regime!!

At a time when reports from Italy confirm the occurrence of a serious incident involving Eritrean regime diplomats in Rome on 5 July following a regime festival, other agents of the Eritrean regime, including the Eri-Blood gangs of the so-called Young-PFDJ, are planning to hold another provocative festival in the Netherlands between 14  and16 July 2017.

In an urgent message addressed to Dutch Foreign Minister Bert Koenders on 7 July,  the Eritrean People's Democratic Party (EPDP) asked the Dutch Government to ban the planned festival and deny entry visas to Eritrean regime officials, like presidential advisor Yemane Ghebreab ('Monkey'), who are suspected perpetrators of the still ongoing crimes against humanity. According to Italian news media, angry Eritreans seriously assaulted the Eritrean ambassador to Rome and his colleague, probably Yemane 'Monkey', in the night of 5 July following their participation at a regime festival in Italy. Both officials reportedly sustained serious injuries and are in a Rome hospital. Details on the incident are still incoming.

The EPDP memorandum referred to the right action of the Mayor of Veldhoven, Holland, on the 14th of April 2017 in banning Eritrean regime festival in his city on grounds of public order and security, and asked the Dutch Government to take a similar action on the provocative festival planned for this month.

The Eritrean regime festivals are organized by the regime agents like the so-called Y-PFDJ (youth wing of the ruling tyranny in Eritrea) which is in effect an instrument of intimidation not only against pro-democracy Eritreans and their supporters but also against high UN officials like Sheila Keetharuth, the Human Rights Rapporteur for Eritrea.  'Eri-Blood' gangs are violence-prone groups within the Y-PFDJ and are always at hand in the regime-organized festivals to threaten and intimidate anyone opposed to the prevailing tyranny in Eritrea.

The EPDP memorandum underlined the importance of past Dutch actions against Eritrean regime agents in the Netherlands and believed that those actions were good examples to be emulated by other European governments as discouragements to oppressor regimes. The message also commended the political positions held by major Dutch parties in the Parliament as well as the repeated rulings of Dutch courts against the antagonistic activities of the Eritrean embassy and its agents and hoped the Dutch Government will again this time take the appropriate action to stop the planned regime festival for 14-16 July 207.
