My information, just received yesterday, is that the US doesn't have an embassy in Eritrea.
It is my understanding that the government there is supporting the President of Ethiopia's attempts in the Horn of Africa. Russia is there due largely to the China military base. To my mind, the area is hot with gunshot. My sources may be overplaying it as Egypt is trying to control the Red Sea. Sorry, for any informational gaps, but that's a long way away!
I recommend that any movement toward democracy in Africa must be coordinated with helping the African Union in their efforts along with the United Nations to stabilize an area strongly engaged in trying to cope with the Continent's poverty, fueled by Muslim extremists, jihadists, aimed at establishing caliphates. This is a tall order to come to their aide after a century of the Continent's neglect.
Placing the Africa Union in G-7 seems wise.
My thoughts on the major problems there amassed over years in El Paso.
My opinion (P.S. My health aide is from Sierra Leone! Have had her for a year and a half.)
