Swiss authorities are informing thousands of Eritrean refugees already holding political asylum that their cases will be reconsidered for eventual repatriation back to Eritrea, according to the French daily newspaper Tribune de Genève of 5 April 2018.

 

The paper confirmed that those receiving notifications are already accepted political refugees who reportedly completed some years in military service in Eritrea before they escaped the country.

 

According to a decision in August 2017 by the Swiss Federal Administrative Tribunal, those Eritrean refugees who were given political asylum on reasons of 'military desertion' can return home 'safely' if they already completed up to 18 months of military service before escaping from Eritrea. The Swiss authorities appeared to be willing to accept Eritrean government "assurances" as the basis of their exceptionally surprising decision.

 

Other Swiss sources reported that of about 9,000 Eritrean political refugees accepted in recent years as army deserters, more than 3,000 are currently targeted for reconsideration of their cases for repatriation. During the past ten years, over 25,000 Eritreans entered Switzerland as asylum seekers.

Israel has announced having reversed its plan of expelling African asylum seers to African countries and is now to send over 16,000 of them to Western countries. This latest plan is agreed with the UN agency for refugees.

 

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the press over the weekend that Canada, Germany and Italy are among the countries that may welcome the asylum seekers. However, he added that the plan is not formally accepted by all the supposed destination countries.

Many of the rest of the 'migrants' who are said to have reached Israel 'illegally' will be allowed to stay in that country at least for the coming five years.

UNHCR office confirmed the existence of such agreement without disclosing the names of the welcoming countries. However, German and Italian spokespersons said their respective countries were not aware of the agreement. On the other hand, a Canadian Immigration Ministry spokesperson confirmed his country's agreement with Israel about not expelling those asylum seekers until their sponsorship applications to enter Canada are processed. Some 1,840 sponsorship to Canada were reportedly registered till end of 2017.

It is to be recalled that an EPDP leadership delegation arrived in Israel on 31 March 2018, and many Eritrean asylum seekers in Israel are reportedly referring to the delegation as "a mission coming with good tidings" - ርሑሳትኣእጋር!!

Two EPDP Central Council members, Ms Feven Gideon and Mr. Tuku Tesfai,  arrived in Tel Aviv, Israel, on 31 March 2018 on a timely mission to meet and discuss the problems of 27,000 Eritrean asylum seekers stranded in Israel.

 

The EPDP leadership members were warmly received at Tel Aviv airport by compatriots welcoming them with bouquets of flowers.

The two-fold mission of the delegation is, besides expressing solidarity with the Eritrean asylum seekers faced with inhumane expulsion from Israel, to also address meetings with Eritreans on the current situation of Eritrea and its opposition camp struggling for democratic change.

 

During its stay in the country, the EPDP delegation will make efforts to discuss pertinent issues with civil society organizations and others concerned with problems of refugees. (www.harnnet.org will continue updates on the mission's upcoming performances).

On 24 and 25 March, the EPDP North America Zone and the EPDP Frankfurt Branch held, respectively, very important periodical meetings, thus becoming exemplary EPDP organs in the rejuvenation and reinforcement programme to speed up the much delayed success of the struggle for democratic change in Eritrea.

 

The main agenda item of the EPDP North America Zone meeting was receiving performance reports from all branches in the United States and Canada. The meeting was highly satisfied with the success so far achieved in registering an increasing number of women as well as young boys and girls and the return to party ranks of former freedom fighters who were not so active in recent years. Meeting participants also commended the active participation in the recent fund-raising drive, and the ongoing efforts of the information and cultural units of the NA Zone.

 

 On its part, the EPDP Branch for Frankfurt and Environs held its regular monthly meeting on 25 March with an educational topic as its main agenda item. Prepared and presented by Tadesse Asmelash, the branch chairman, the three-hour long educational discussion focused on provisions related to three stages in the struggle as enshrined in the EPDP Political Programme adopted at the Second Congress in the summer of 2015. The three stages covered in the discussion paper were:

 

  • The current struggle for first removing the dictatorial regime in Eritrea;
  • The common task of all national forces in the transitional period (after the fall of the regime). Priority tasks enumerated in the EPDP Political Programme include guaranteeing peace and security, and the building of institutions that would guarantee the future democratic state, and
  • Thirdly, the political, economic and social pillars of a constitutional government in post-dictatorship Eritrea.
