UNSC Needs to Re-examine its Engagement with so called PoE

[Deeq A.]

On November 14 2018 the United Nations Security Council passed a unanimous resolution 2444 (2018) under Chapter VII of the UN Charter in which it lifted the arms embargo, travel ban, assets freeze and targeted sanctions previously imposed on Eritrea, which the Council had imposed via resolutions 1907 (2009), 2023 (2011), 2060 (2012) and 2111 (2013). The lifting of the sanctions was as a result of new political developments in the horn in which Ethiopia’s Abiy Ahmed and Eritrea’s Isaias Afwekri agreed to bury their differences and restore diplomatic relationships.
