It was a pleasure to meet and hold fruitful discussions with the new @IEAmbEthiopia Olivia Leslie yesterday. Ireland has been a reliable and principled friend of the people of Tigray through thick and thin. True to form, Ambassador Olivia Leslieโs visit was yet another affirmation of Irelandโs readiness to stand with the people of Tigray.

Our global BNH team met with the Eritrean Afar National Congress in Samara, where we confidently focused on regime change and the peaceful securing of our nation. There is much to be accomplished, and together we will move forward and achieve our goals. #RegimechangeinEritrea
๐ข In #Tigray where displacement is ongoing &governance is fragile ensuring that cash reaches those in needโand that it can actually be used for survivalโis an unrealistic expectation.
We need sustainable food secure.
