Eritrea is one of only five countries to have voted no on the 2022 UN resolution demanding the immediate withdrawal of Russian Armed Forces from Ukraine. According to Wikipedia, during the country's struggle for independence, the precursor to the current governing party was at least nominally Marxist-Leninist until 1987.

It's not easy to find much more information about the country. Does anyone here know more? Does modern day Eritrea deserve critical support as an anti-imperialist state? Does one, in any sense, 'gotta hand it to them'?

    I went to college with an Eritrean and she at first Supported Tigray, but once Eritrea went in, she basically went full genocide denial.
