Eritrea is hellbent on destabilising Ethiopia. It does not care who it sleeps with.

Meles Zenawi

I believed peace between Ethiopia and Eritrea was within reach.

Abiy Ahmed

I was a young soldier when war broke out between Ethiopia and Eritrea.

It is clear that several countries, in the Balkans for example, need to be considered countries of safe origin. But others like, in my opinion, Eritrea, undoubtedly need to be considered a country of origin with a valid claim to asylum. And with a third group of states, like Nigeria for example, each individual case needs to be evaluated. Then there are also very controversial cases like Afghanistan. In any case, united European action is needed. This argument for Europeanization may sound utopian, but there is no alternative.

Paolo Gentiloni

My dad's main client was the World Bank, and he spent most of his time traveling to Third World countries. His particular interest lay in the eradication of poverty through development and business.

Hugh Jackman

I have so many girlfriends who are powerhouses: They have big careers, are fearless in traveling in third-world countries or a launching non-profit. But they won't text a guy for fear of being perceived as desperate. That is broken.

Whitney Wolfe Herd

Traveling around Ethiopia, I saw dozens of abandoned textile factories. People kept asking me to help them find work. So I thought I could make use of my experience in fashion to commercialize their products outside of Ethiopia.

It's my dream to sing onstage all around the world. France is the land of my birth, but I prefer other countries because the world is very, very big and I'd like to discover different countries - it's my first reason for travelling and singing.

Amaury Vassili

What we ask of the developed countries is to let the Third World find a third way.

Ferdinand Marcos

And why is our music called world music? I think people are being polite. What they want to say is that it's third world music. Like they use to call us under developed countries, now it has changed to developing countries, it's much more polite.

Miriam Makeba

The only hope for the world is to make sure there is not another United States. We can't let other countries have the same number of cars, the amount of industrialization, we have in the US. We have to stop these Third World countries right where they are.

Michael Oppenheimer

When people from organizations like the World Bank descended on Third World countries, they always tried to remove obstacles to development, to reduce economic anxiety and uncertainty.

Malcolm Gladwell

Traveling with children corresponds roughly to traveling third class in Bulgaria.

Robert Benchley

As I got older, my pops tried to keep me involved with the culture by telling me the stories of the conflict between Ethiopia and Eritrea, how he came to America, and about our family back home, because all that side of my family - my aunties, grandparents - is in Africa.
