The report released by Amnesty International regarding the expulsion from Ethiopia of Eritreans for reasons of national security is lop-sided and far from the truth, to say the least. It alleges that the expelled Eritreans are treated inhumanly. As a matter of fact, the contrary is the case. Those Eritreans expelled from Ethiopia depart with dignity, their rights fully protected. They are sent off in the presence of international observers, foreign journalists as well as representatives of Addis-based embassies.
Nothing is hidden.
On the other hand, Ethiopian citizens expelled from Eritrea receive atrocious treatments. Prior to their expulsion, the Ethiopians are incarcerated, tortured and expropriated. The women are raped by members of the Eritrean army. There are even some who were killed. These atrocities have been witnessed by representatives of Amnesty International.
