The now defunct and emerging social systems in the world, in order to uphold the supremacy and dominance of special social strata of the society, have isolated and harmed the large section of the society, men and women, especially women. That is why the struggle for the right and gender equality for women is not seen in isolation from the popular struggle for national security and independence.

It is known that the Government of Eritrea has been engaged in efforts to develop our nation so as to give a worthy meaning to our independence, for which a heavy toll and sacrifice was paid for. Hence, our nation has been marching on the avenue of development by following a clear political and economic policy.

On the 22nd of February 2010 the united and resonant voice of Eritreans
that echo the voice of truth and justice has been knocking the ears of the
international community from the continent of Australia to the Western
shores of the United States expressing discontent with the prejudiced
decision by the Security Council against Eritrea.

Often, we Eritreans refer to times in which our country was made a victim of the hideous policies of American administrations to guarantee their global interest as ‘Ethiopian colonization’. Although in truth, the colonization of Eritrea for the past 40 years by Ethiopia has been United State’s colonialism by proxy.
