Headline Eritrea Becomes Autonomous

Caption Description Less than two years after the UN General Assembly resolution granting self-rule to Eritrea, the former Italian colony has become an autonomous state federated with Ethiopia.
Eduardo Anze Matienzo (second from right), UN Commissioner in Eritrea, had to prepare the population for the change. Through cosultations with all groups, he found that generally there was unanimity in favour of the principle of federation, but many differences of opinion on details. He stressed the need to think of the welfare of the country as a whole rather than in terms of tribal and local influences.
