Political Charter
Our guiding principles for the National charter:
Our guiding principles lay a strong foundation for a just and inclusive national charter. They reflect a commitment to human dignity, cultural heritage, and equality, fundamental pillars in shaping a fair and cohesive society.
These guiding principles have far-reaching implications for governance, society, and individual rights. Here’s how they might shape policies and everyday life:

The Ruling Class Governs the Country as an Ideological Cause Defined by Constant War Footing, Leader Deification, and Paranoia
People crowd the streets of Asmara, the capital of Eritrea.

Isaias Afwerki, Eritrea’s dictator who has ruled the country since its 1993 independence, is almost 80 years old and rumors continue to abound about his increasingly frequent health crises.
Much of the economy relies on mandatory and indefinite conscription, basically state-sanctioned slavery.
Under his tenure, Eritrea squandered its potential. Much of the economy relies on mandatory and indefinite conscription, basically state-sanctioned slavery. China is Eritrea’s only meaningful trade partner. Isaias has played a crucial role in destabilizing the region. What began as a friendly relationship with Ethiopia ended in a war over the border region near Badme. Up to 100,000 people died in the 1998-2000 war that locals derided as “two bald men fighting over a comb,” due to Badme’s isolation and economic irrelevance. More recently, Isaias involved himself in the Ethiopian civil war, sending troops (and Somali conscripts ostensibly in Eritrea for training) into Ethiopia to help crush the country’s ethnic Tigray, a conflict that killed upwards of a quarter-million people. This latest intervention also earned Eritrea enhanced U.S. sanctions.

The Eritrean Blue Revolution Front (EBRF) began in 2022 as Brigade N’Hamedu. Initially the movement focused on organising protests, events and campaigns. The objective was to raise awareness about the Eritrean regime’s illegal activities: its militarized propaganda festivals and its transnational repression.
EBRF, as it is currently organised, was founded in 2023, with meetings taking place in many countries across the diaspora. This included organising exploratory trips and engagements, aimed confronting the Eritrean regime. These were held on the ground, in Ethiopia and in neighbouring countries.

To Permanent Representatives of Member and Observer States of the United Nations (UN) Human Rights Council (Geneva, Switzerland)
Excellencies,
Ahead of the UN Human Rights Council’s 59th session (16 June-11 July 2025), we, the undersigned non-governmental organisations, are writing to urge your delegation to support the development and adoption of a strong resolution that extends the mandate of the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Eritrea.
This year’s resolution should decisively move away from a “procedural” approach. In addition to extending the Rapporteur’s mandate, it should clearly spell out and condemn the ongoing grave human rights violations committed by Eritrean authorities in a context of widespread impunity.

In his recent article, “Looking Beyond Isaias: Complexities of the Make-up of the Eritrean Population, Past and Present – A Help or Hindrance?”, Martin Plaut offers a valuable and timely reflection on Eritrea’s political future. One of the propositions he puts forward is that the Eritrean military, composed of diverse communities and united by shared experience, could play a stabilizing role in the post-Isaias era. While this may seem plausible on the surface, I believe it is both unrealistic and deeply risky to rely on the military as a force for national unity and democratic transition.
To place our hopes in the same military apparatus that has long upheld tyranny is not only unrealistic, it risks repeating the very cycles of repression we seek to escape.

I would stress at the outset: this is an initial attempt to consider these questions. I wish to interrogate issues that have only limited public discussion and my analysis is tentative. I would welcome any informed criticism.
By Martin Plaut
There is one central question that is genuinely puzzling about Eritrea: why its people, who fought with such courage and sacrifice for thirty years to achieve independence and freedom, only to allow the fruits of their suffering to be denied them for more than three decades. What Eritreans have endured since they captured Asmara from Ethiopian forces in 1991 is well documented. At times they have protested; at times they have revolted, (as in 2013 when mutinous troops reached Forto on the edge of the capital, only to be outwitted and then brutally repressed).[1]
