Asmara — Intelligence agencies and individuals with close connection with foreign affairs circles say that the TPLF regime is intending to launch an invasion against Eritrea in the first week of November 2007 with the blessing of the US Administration.
The sources, which indicated that the European Union does not support such an invasion, pointed out that strategies are in the process of being formulated on the part of the US Administration to replace the invading forces of the TPLF regime in Somalia with another African force so as to enable the regime to immediately withdraw its forces, and thereby avoid getting engaged along two fronts.
Meanwhile, political analysts that have been closely following up the Eritrea-Ethiopia issue and referring to statements by the TPLF regime in recent weeks, as regards border demarcation in which it kept on bragging, noted that the regime would resort to what it called "other legal options". The political analysts further underlined that, on the one hand, time will tell as to what this "other legal option" means and the truth as well as the actuality of the so-called "intended" invasion, on the other.
