Iran Press News Agency revealed On Wednesday afternoon, Iraninan President Masoud Pezeshkian met with Osman Saleh Mohammed, Eritrea’s Foreign Minister, who was in Tehran for the inauguration of Iran’s 14th president. According to the report, Pezeshkian praised the emerging strong alignment between Iran and Eritrea, especially in their mutual support for Palestine, and stressed the need to deepen and enhance their bilateral relations. He offered Iran’s assistance and expertise to Eritrea.
The report added, ‘Pezeshkian also condemned the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, Chairman of the Hamas Political Bureau, describing it as a heinous and inexcusable act that will not go unanswered’. He criticized the international community’s failure to act against the atrocities committed by the Zionist regime in Gaza, calling the attacks on defenseless women and children historically unparalleled.
Eritrean Foreign Minister Osman Saleh Mohammed congratulated Pezeshkian on his presidency and advocated for strengthening ties between Iran and Eritrea. He also denounced the assassination of Haniyeh and extended condolences to both Iran and Palestine.
Despite years of Western-led sanctions against it, Eritrea’s government has proven adaptable and determined to survive at any cost. It frequently changes its alliances to ensure its continued existence. Whether dealing with the Palestine Liberation Organization and Israel or Saudi Arabia and Iran, the regime continuously shifts its positions to navigate its survival.
