EU Policy of Appeasement in the face of humanitarian disaster in Eritrea
Yes, the EU is financially capable of providing aid to a humanitarian disaster in Eritrea. However, when mechanisms of accountability are misplaced or ignored, the consequence is perpetuation of misery and waste of more resources. Transparency is non-existent in Eritrea and the EU might end up being held accountable for prolonging the suffering of the Eritrean people. The 122 million Euros in the pipeline for aid to Eritrea will eventually serve as a life-saver for the Government of Eritrea.
