#US Ambassador Ervin Massinga visits #Mekelle as Pretoria Agreement faces renewed strain
The visit comes less than three weeks after the ambassador postponed a planned trip to Mekelle amid escalating internal political tensions within Tigray, which Washington viewed as posing a risk to the AU-mediated Pretoria peace process.
It also takes place against the backdrop of renewed tensions between Mekelle and Addis Abeba over the future of the Pretoria Agreement.

To every 🇪🇹n diaspora elite: Your mother sold her only cow. Your father walked barefooted for miles so you could read under kerosene lamp. Ethiopians pooled their last birr for your ticket to the West. Your parents sacrificed their livelihood so you could get educated. They remained illiterate in the darkness. So, stop inflaming violence and division from afar. Your nation needs your mind, not your silence or sabotage. Come home to the table. Parents stayed in the dark - so you could see the light. They sacrificed everything - so you could rise.
Now you sit in comfort, tweeting division, and even inflaming bloodshed between the none educated same parents that raised you. This is unforgivable betrayal of a child against a poor mother. The National Dialogue begins soon. 🇪🇹 is calling you home - not to take power, but to repay debts. Come. Speak. Listen. Contribute. The children of sacrifice deserve better than abandoned elites. 🇪🇹 is stretching her hands to her children. Your country is waiting. History is watching.
@umutcagrisariii It is only You and shabia supporting the lazy fighters on this earth, who couldnt even control single city for 1hr and more struggling 3 years.
It was a pleasure to meet with Mr. Sergey Lavrov, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, and his delegation this evening, during which our discussions focused on bilateral relations and exploring new opportunities for cooperation.
