At least 3 Eritrean cyclists who participated at the world championships in Copenhagen from 19th to 25th September are reported to have sought asylum in Scandinavia.
The cyclists who represented Eritrea did not perform as well as had been expected. It is to be remembered that the entire Eritrean soccer team absconded in Kenya some 2 years ago. Many Club Red Sea football players in Tanzania last year as well as the Eritrean athletes in Scotland are among many sports folks who did not go back to their country because of the dire political and economical conditions in Eritrea.

    This is yet another rejection of the brutal regime by the young cyclists who the regime recently boasted as our jeganu cyclists awet amezgibom etc. I do not mean to belittle their achievement, but i am wondering what it will say now! It will as usual keep silence. I wish them all the best.

    This a very natural reaction taking into account the repressive nature of HGDF. It is time for them to leave so that the innocent eritreans come back home.

    All young Eritreans are sick and tired of Hgdef. They will do anything to leave Eritrea under hgdef. They know, there is no hope in Eritrea. The Eritreans in Denmark should give them all the support they need.
    To facilitate future defections better, please give advice, phone numbers, shelter and direction … to make defections easier. Some would be defectors lack good info and advice. Tell them that they are free outside of Eritrea and they can defect if they want to.
