For those of You who kept it, please kindly replace my e-mail of 7
December 2006 re-enclosed below by its present extension.
Please note that the latest UNSG Report S/2007/33 (22 January 2007),
which includes the EEBC President's Letter of 27 November 2006 in reply to
Ethiopia Foreign Minister's Letter of 13 November 2006, provides only now a
complete context of the significance of the EEBC Statement of 27 November
2006 as ingenious (legal) means of seeking - within global system of peace,
security and peace-making in the Horn of Africa (HOA) - of progress in the
Eritrea/Ethiopia Demarcation, which has been awkwardly stalled (for
political reasons) since over 4 years.
With kindest regards,
Yours sincerely,
Prof. Barbara Kwiatkowska

With respect to para.26 of the EEBC Statement of 27 November 2006
at: http://www.pca-cpa.org/ENGLISH/RPC/EEBC/Statement%20271106.pdf listed
supra, experts on maritime boundary delimitation welcome the Commission's
emphasis on the outstanding treatment of geographical coordinates of
boundary points and charts by the UNCLOS, which you may find at the website
of UNDOALOS - Director Dr Vladimir Golitsyn (for whose interest I'm copying
this e-mail) - at:
http://www.un.org/Depts/los/doalos_activities/about_doalos.htm (via:
http://www.un.org/Depts/los/index.htm).
With respect to since over 4 years notorious - and running counter
repeated appeals of the UNSC - lack of necessary cooperation of Eritrea and
Ethiopia to effect the Demarcation of their boundary delimited by the final
and binding 2002 EEBC (Merits) Decision [listed supra], please note that
such indispensable cooperation of both parties with respect to customarily
numerous technical details concerned, led in 2006 to successful completion
of protracted controversies surrounding demarcation of the Cameroon/Nigeria
land(including oil-rich Bakassi)/maritime boundary delimited under the final
and binding ICJ 2002 Cameroon v. Nigeria; Equatorial Guinea (Merits)
