This and a number of other laughable allegations Mr. Herui Tedla volunteered to make appeared in an interview he conducted with Mr. Mohammed Taha Tewekel’s Gulf News and Studies Center and posted on Eritreana.com on 28 October 2004. ELF-RC’s Information and Cultural Office accused Mr. Herui Tedla, the secretary general of the Eritrean National Alliance (ENA), of spreading lies he fabricated with “the ill intention of creating estrangement between the ELF-RC and neighbouring countries” and his futile attempt to deny this organization its deserved space in the region. The statement rebuffed the allegation as “pitiful attempt of begging for favours” by the man and noted that governments in Ethiopia and the Sudan have already reached their conclusions about what Mr Herui Tedla is not in the Eritrean political opposition. The Information Office added: “The ELF-RC believes in creating a peaceful and fraternal relationship based on mutual respect of neighbouring countries and that maximizes the promotion of their common interests. The organization strove and shall continue to strive with the aim of promoting and sustaining this kind of relationship with Eritrea’s neighbours.” It was also in the same interview, Mr. Herui Tedla alleged, among other allegations against opposition organizations including ENA members, that the ELF-RC is “decided to appease” with the dictatorial regime in Asmara and is “conspiring to mislead” other opposition organizations to return to the embrace of the PFDJ regime. The Information and Cultural Office ridiculed Herui Tedla’s pathetic allegation and gave a brief historical record about the positions of the ELF-RC on the issue of dialogue on many occasions before the liberation of Eritrea and after 1991. It noted that there was no need to confirm that the ELF-RC has been and remains to be in the forefront of the struggle against the dictatorship in the Eritrea and that the general Eritrean public is well aware of ELF-RC declared position that it will never open dialogue with the regime without the participation of all forces in the opposition. At the same time, the statement reminded readers that it is not the Eritrean opposition but the dictatorial regime that since long ago rejected peaceful dialogue for organizing democratic transition in Eritrea and warned Mr. Heru Tedla not to paint the Eritrean opposition as ‘rejectionist’ of democratic dialogues while this not the case.
