. 🇪🇷 declines $Billions in

loan & Int'l charity grants. 🇪🇷's desire for self-reliance has been met by sanctions from the United States, 20yrs & going.
Here is “self-reliant”

hiding the massive hand-out it gets from its “partners” like

Oh, pleaaaase! Then, who the hell has defaulted on its loan commitment and got sued in the European and US courts?! Eritrea is like an entitled beggar. It shames in to giving it money, then tries to blackmail you if/when you ask back for your money.
Similarly, claims that
#Eritrea
pursues a policy of self-reliance is not supported by facts. On a per capita basis, it receives more developmental assistance than the average sub-Saharan

regime prides itself on 'Self-reliance', but truth is different. From 1992 - 2019, Eritrea received 4 billion and 362 million US dollars in Net Official development Assistance and Official Aid Received, according to World Bank data. Thanks to

This is misinformation. Eritrean govt took aid from Western govts countless times. Recent example is from EU! Even worse, Eritrean embassies in Western countries collect 2% tax from Eritreans who receive state welfare benefits. Eritrea took intl Aid with nothing to show for it!

Good job 🇪🇷! However, zis would aggravate its current economic crisis along with its command economy. For countries like 🇪🇹, it's good to follow z same scenario, but z crisis would be very big as compared to🇪🇷. Look at🇿🇼, they’re leading a miserable life as a result of sanctions.
