GALLOWS IN ERITREA
(A dramatic grab of a bloody reality) narrated by a Swedish
Journalist
It is true that once the Federal Act and the Eritrean constitution have
come into force, the mission
entrusted to the General Assembly under the Peace Treaty with Italy will
have been fulfilled and
the future of Eritrea must be regarded as settled; but it does not
follow that the United Nations
will no longer have any right to deal with the question of Eritrea.
The Federal Act and the Eritrean Constitution will still be based on the
resolution of the United Nations and that international instrument will
retain its full force. That being so, if it were necessary either to
amend or to interpret the Federal Act, only the General Assembly, as
author of the instrument, would be competent to take a decision.
Similarly if the Federal Act were violated, the General Assembly could
be seized of the matter.

unconstitutional British Declaration No. 121 and Emergency Law No. 1,
1955. Celebrating the occasion, the Emperor of Ethiopia declared: «From
now on there shall be only one nation, Ethiopia. The federation, imposed
by circumstances, is gone to no return». By annexing Eritrea to
Ethiopia, the Emperor did not only defy the United Nations Federal
Resolution but also violated every promise and undertaking he had made
to safeguard the federation.
