Replying to @AfricaEAR
The amount of bestiality demonstrated by Oromos upon the Amharas is beyond comprehension. How one human can commit such acts upon another in such a manner is unbelievable and has not been recorded anywhere in the world. #AmharaGenocide @USEmbassyAddis

In the face of the Gaza conflict & war in Ukraine, the tragedy unfolding in 🇸🇩 is fast fading from our radar screen. Sudan is gripped in a series catastrophic civil war with dire human consequence. Peace lovers everywhere must voice our concern & indignation. NEVER FORGET SUDAN!

Merci PRST Guelleh for convening IGAD Summit on Ethio-Somaliland aspirational framework MoU. Summit keeps talks within diplomatic realms; allows temper to cool, passion to subside & reasoning to prevail. IGAD must interrogate deep aspirations & vulnerability of the signatories

Ethiopia has again proven trustworthy US allay, cooperating to evacuate almost 100 US diplomats & families out of Sudan; in the fall of darkness & landing safely in Ethiopia. More than 16,000 citizens still in Sudan.POTUS, Blinken pls remembers this next time you plan 🇪🇹 sanction

Ethiopia is right to support Sudanese people to overcome their current challenge. This is’t time to attempt a take-back of the contested Fashaga border area. Brothers don’t attack brothers when their house is on fire. PM is right to refer Sudan’s land grab to the Border comission

As Generals escalate war in 🇸🇩,options for negotiated deal=far fetched. No matter z deal, RSF sure to be diluted. Hemeti may face choice betw/n politics, business & military. If he’s unhapy, likely return to Darfur & split region. W/make 🇸🇩ungovernable. East may follow his step.

Mamo left a comfortable position simply because he has this unshakable belief in public service & love for his country. The least we can do is to give him some time & space to prove himself. I for one have no doubt that he will rise to the challenge & make us all proud. Godspeed!

Redwan Hussain is right to question motive behind the loud call for 🇪🇷 to exit 🇪🇹n territory while staying mum as Sudan occupies a vast swath of 🇪🇹n territory. It’s clear their motive is NOT 🇪🇹‘s territorial integrity. This is 🇪🇹’s internal matter; others please keep ur hands off

The barbaric slaughter of ethnic #Amhara by the terrorist #OLF Shene must be condemned. Difficult to defeat an elusive guerrilla force, but also unacceptable Govt. failing to arm vulnerable areas & provide trained police & militia as promised. PM @AbiyAhmedAli DPM @DemekeHasen

Ethiopian Heroism is not only victory in winning the war. Ethiopian Heroism is KINDNESS after victory and FORGIVENESS after victory. It is time to extend our generosity of spirit and action to the noble people of Tigray.

The surrender agreement signed today in Pretoria is a particular victory to the mothers of Tigray. May our children on both sides never face the wrath of war again. Time to focus on implementing the agreement. 🇪🇹 has won the war & must now work harder to win the peace. 🇪🇹 Rising!

Ned Price, State Dept Spokesman addressing the conflict in DRC: “We call on all actors in the region to stop any support or cooperation with M23 or other non-state groups”. Why isn’t this principle applied to the largest non-state armed group:TPLF/TDF? US Stop the Double Standard

Ethiopia is at a once-in-a-lifetime crossroad. As the curtain comes down on the conflict, EDF controls much of Tigray & is mobilized around Mekele. Gov’t & TPLF are in SA negotiating the wording of the obituary to follow. Further fighting is sure to cost more lives, – at Potomac, MD

w/out changing the outcome on the ground. Glacially slow moving diplomacy is overtaken by events on the ground. Courageous leadership requires the SA talks to accept fast changing realities on the ground & stop senseless human misery. It must end all rebel activities everywhere.

Hours ago, Tigrayan authorities stole 570,000 liters of fuel for @WFP operations in #Tigray! Millions will starve if we do not have fuel to deliver food. This is OUTRAGEOUS and DISGRACEFUL. We demand return of this fuel NOW.
