The so-called "alliance" between the Eritrean regime and elements within the TPLF leadership—as well as factions within the Tigray Defense Forces—has never had any tangible objective beyond granting the Eritrean dictator peace of mind by turning Tigray into the principal battlefield.
The much-hyped relationship that the reactionary group in Tigray has invested immense time and energy into is contingent upon several preconditions laid down by their senior partners in Eritrea: no moves whatsoever toward reclaiming Western Tigray (so as not to provoke Fano); no discussion of Tigray's potential statehood; full acceptance of the Algiers Agreement; and the provision of military-age recruits to be trained by the Eritrean regime. "Comrade" Isaias has made it abundantly clear to diplomats that he has no interest in making any sacrifice for "the leaders of Woyane," underscoring his contempt for his junior partners in this futile client-patron arrangement. In truth, I believe Isaias—seasoned in the art of power preservation—has made the rational choice. He knows precisely where his interests lie.
At this moment, the reactionary clique finds itself mired in a grave crisis of its own making. In a paradoxical bid to escape that crisis, it now seeks to create another—by launching military operations in the Southern and Southeastern Zones in an attempt to seize power by force. At a time when the rainy season is in full swing—and when every ounce of energy should be directed toward the pursuit of peace—the clique has instead opted for war against our people as its supposed solution. Tragically, this is the only strategy it appears capable of.
The foreseeable and forewarned outcome of this unholy alliance—between the Eritrean regime and the reactionary faction within the TPLF, aided by enablers within the Tigray Armed Forces—is the renewed declaration of war on our people. This destructive path must be rejected by every Tigrayan.
Responsibility for the consequences lies squarely with the reactionary clique, senior military leaders, and above all, the President of the Interim Administration.
Until they are personally touched by the same hardship, their attempts to explain away or justify these policies remain shallow and disconnected. The suffering of the people is real and profound, dismissing asnormal is both a serious oversight and a disregard the lives destroyed
Downplaying the immense suffering in Tigray under the guise of rationality is nothing more than willful ignorance. Those who try to normalize the pain and devastation faced by the people without having experienced it themselves fail to comprehend the true extent of the crisis.
#Ethiopia: #Tigray interim president warns against ‘sole focus’ on DDR, calls for comprehensive peace deal implementation
Getachew Reda, President of the Tigray Interim Administration, said it is “irresponsible” to focus solely on the Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration (DDR) of former Tigray combatants into society. During a meeting in #Mekelle with Alexis Lamek, the #French Ambassador to Ethiopia, Getachew stressed that DDR "should be carried out in accordance with the implementation of the Pretoria Peace agreement."
Getachew also pointed out issues in Western Tigray, stating that "no effort has been made to remove armed groups," despite this being the Federal Government's responsibility. Additionally, he noted that displaced people from Western Tigray "have not yet returned" to their homes.
