U.N. Official Warns Eritrea and Ethiopia By AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE ASMARA, Eritrea, July 31 (Agence France-Presse) — The lack of dialogue between Eritrea and Ethiopia is threatening the peace between the countries, the United Nations special representative in the region, Legwaila Joseph Legwaila, said today. The two countries fought a border war from 1998 to 2000, before signing a peace agreement in 2000 that left it to an international commission to draw a new border. But the only official communication between countries occurs every six weeks at meetings of a United Nations-sponsored committee. "We are still dealing with the logic of war," Mr. Legwaila said during a news conference broadcast to Asmara and Addis Ababa, the Ethiopian capital. In April 2002 the border commission delivered its final verdict on the border dispute. In the commission's timetable, marking the border, which has been delayed several times, is now due to begin in October. Ethiopia has repeatedly questioned the commission's verdict, especially over the status of Badme, a town that was the flash point for the war in 1998, and which has now been assigned to Eritrea.
