I congratulate Andebrhan Welde Giorgis on his high quality and
extremely informative book that has not only the merit to be an
update on the political situation in Eritrea but also asks the
pertinent questions on the future of his marvelous country. He does
it with tact and success, based on his long experience as freedom
fighter, as senior public servant, as Ambassador and his rich
experience of Africa. Each country in Africa must be able to
determine its own future. Freedom, responsibility, control over its
destiny, and solidarity, are the key ideas of the new vision for
international cooperation that will help ensure the sustainability
of the development process. The urgent need to create a democratic
government resonates throughout the book. Good governance, respect
for human rights, principles of democracy, and rule of law are
essential universal values underpinning it. Andebrhan is one of
those men, visionaries, and open to dialogue, reform and change.
Eritrea at a Crossroads is key to understanding the challenges
facing Eritrea and Africa. It is an eye opener on a complex and
little understood crisis that is festering in Africa and holding
the continent back. The book provides a solid intellectual
foundation to understanding the region and will give anyone who
wants to build a better future for Africa a great starting point. I
congratulate him on this most valuable book which finds its place
among all the lovers of Africa. Louis Michel Member of European
Parliament, European Commissioner for Development and Humanitarian
Aid (2004-2009) and Foreign Minister of Belgium (1999-2004) Freedom
fighter, scholar, central banker, diplomat, and now unhappy exile,
no-one could be better placed than Andebrhan Welde Giorgis to trace
Eritrea's distressing slide from triumph to tragedy. It's a
harrowing story, but the author tells it comprehensively,
objectively and lucidly in this excellent study. The future can be
rescued, as Andebrhan makes clear, but only if the past is
understood, and the present confronted -- by decent, concerned
Eritreans, acting with the moral, political and economic support of
the wider international community. May his voice be heard. Gareth
Evans Chancellor, Australian National University; President,
International Crisis Group (2000-09) and Foreign Minister of
Australia (1988-96) Publisher's website: http:
