The world price of coffee is expected to rise by 40% in the coming year of 2005.
Many of us know that eritrea used to export coffee before the conflict. Coffee prices have remained low during the years that followed the conflict. The EPLF man in addis, Meles Zenawi
is now seeking normalisation with eritrea so that they can have access to our coffee and make advantage of the rising prices. We will foil the sinnister motives of the EPLF agents by exposing every move they make.
I think your conclustion is too early to predict that Eritrea will use coffee to export hard currencies again. It is to shallow and need more refrence to such statemen. First, the trade between those countries will remain in hard currency dollar. Seconly, the Ethiopian people will not allow such thing to happen again for Eritrea to purchase coffee and sell it abroad. The peace plan will not materilized until atlease ten years effectively.
