Finally peace between Eritrea and Ethiopia !!!
Hi.
Guess this news is well worth a post on this board, since a couple of days Ethiopia and Eritrea are offically at peace !!!
The border conflict and state of war between them lasted over 20 years and I hope this landmark peace agreement will bring both of them prosperity and stabiltiy for the future.
I don´t have to mention what good news this is also for overlanders, the Ethiopian/Eritrean border remained closed since 1998.
We have to wait what will follow but a new route from Sudan through Eritrea to Ethiopia might be possible in the next years.
I am particulary happy as my flight to Asmara is in 2 month !
