 In exchange for Euros and US dollars, the Eritrean embassy in Khartoum issues Eritrean passports to escapees who secure visas (mostly to the Arab Gulf states.) Ironically, the Eritrean citizens would have been shot on sight if the Eritrean government border patrol had spotted them days earlier. |

Isaias tells his visitors that he doesn't see a problem with Djibouti but with Ethiopia (a “servile state”) and its "sponsor" the USA. The problem with Djibouti ("a servile state to a servile state") would be solved if (1) it takes its hands off the affairs of the Somali opposition and (2) if the USA would pressure Ethiopia to vacate Eritrean territories based on the ruling of the EEBC. |

Taff is being sold at 5,000 Nakfa per quintal (100 kilos), and Meshela is being sold at 1,500 Nakfa per quintal. The ration for a family of five is 10 kilos per month; for families with more than five members, the ration is 15 kilos per month. This has presented a serious hardship to Eritrean families: historically, even a family of modest means needs about 25 kilos per month. |
