80 years old Trump wants WAR
77 years old Netanyahu wants WAR
74 years old Putin wants WAR
65 years old Keir Starmer wants WAR
But 52 years old Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez wants PEACE
This is why the world needs young leaders and not old maniacs.
The world, Europe, and Spain have faced this critical moment before. In 2003, a few irresponsible leaders dragged us into an illegal war in the Middle East that brought nothing but insecurity and pain.

NO to violations of international law.
NO to the illusion that we can solve the world’s problems with bombs.
NO to repeating the mistakes of the past.
NO TO WAR.

News: #Ethiopia earns over $2.6 billion from #tourism in six months
Addis Abeba-Ethiopia has generated more than $2.6 billion in tourism revenue after welcoming over 700,000 international visitors during the first six months of the 2018 Ethiopian fiscal year, the Ministry of Tourism said.
In a statement reported by state media, the ministry attributed the performance to the development of new tourist destinations and the renovation of existing sites. Officials said the growth has made a significant contribution to the country’s foreign currency earnings.
The ministry also cited Addis Abeba’s role as a hub for major international conferences and diplomatic engagements as a key factor behind the rise in visitor numbers and revenue.
The latest Tourism Barometer by the United Nations World Tourism Organization projects that Ethiopia’s tourism sector could grow by 15 percent by 2025, positioning the country among Africa’s leading destinations.
According to the report, Ethiopia’s performance contributed to an overall 8 percent increase in international tourist arrivals across Africa, making the continent the fastest-growing tourism region globally.
The Barometer added that authorities and industry stakeholders have sought to strengthen traveler confidence through expanded investment in hospitality infrastructure, improved service standards, and the launch of the “Visit Ethiopia” digital platform in 2025 to promote the country as a competitive global destination.
