Discussion of Situation in Eritrea
Press TV in the United Kingdom broadcast a 25 minute program about Eritrea on 11 June 2013 titled "20 Years after Securing Its Freedom, Is It Now Time for Eritrea to Come in from the Cold?" The moderator of the Africa Today program was Henry Bonsu. The panelists were Thomas C. Mountain, an American journalist in Asmara who strongly supported developments in Eritrea; Bereket Kahsai, an Eritrean exile in the United Kingdom who strongly criticized the regime; and Vincent Gasana, a broadcast journalist who tried to walk a middle course between criticism and support of Eritrean policies and developments.
