"Mr President, many Members will be aware that there are several hundred Eritrean demonstrators outside our building this evening. They are here because of their concern that the Algiers Agreement – which was a settlement of the boundaries between Ethiopia and Eritrea – has not been agreed by Ethiopia.
On behalf of Mr Cox, the President of Parliament, I have received a petition signed by 22 000 Eritreans living in the European Union and in Norway. Both countries are to be urged to accept the provisions of the Algiers Agreement, which was based upon the decision of the Boundary Commission. Ethiopia is reluctant to agree to that decision at this time.
Mr President, would you please ensure that a letter is written to the Ethiopian Government to urge it to respect that decision, in order to restore peace between the two countries after what has been a bloody and terrible war."@en1
