Even after Bashir Had helped Meles to change the tides of war with Eritrea this is how this midget pays him back.WikiLeaks: Ethiopia - Meles tells US to "remove the Bashir regime."
Meles offered that if he were the United States, he
would look at two options. First, which he clearly conveyed
as the preferred choice, would be to "remove the Bashir
regime." Acknowledging that such an option was unlikely,
Meles advocated for making a clear representation to the GoS
that the United States is not/not "out to get them" and
laying out clear benchmarks of actions expected of the GoS on
both Darfur and South Sudan that would be necessary to "avoid
continued challenges" with the U.S. Meles concluded the
discussion by highlighting that "they don't trust the Obama
Administration," and "they trust the Obama Administration
less than the Bush Administration," and with a clear
reference to U.S. Ambassador to the UN Susan Rice and former
Senior NSC Director for Africa Gayle Smith "...especially
some friends of mine."

Ethiopia was weak and could not beat Eritrea only after Sudan allowing Ethiopia to use its land to invade Eritrea.
