Public Meeting in Kampen, Holland

By Committee Hizbawi Mekete of Kampen

Eritreans residing in Kampen and its environs held public meeting on Saturday November 10, 2007. More than 200 Eritrean nationals from different cities such as: Zwolle, Emmeloord, Meppel, Hengelo, Apeldoorn and Enschede attended the meeting (or Hizbawi Mekete).

They praised the tireless efforts of the Eritrean people and Government; and they reaffirmed their readiness to fulfil, which is required of them.

The participants of the meeting also said that they are closely following all the orchestrated defamation against the Eritrean people and Government and they strongly condemned the US’s threat to enlist the state of Eritrea as sponsor of terrorism, which is ridiculous for anyone to believe that Eritrea would support terrorism.
