Esaiyas afewerki at addis abeba

On October 2, 2021, Abel Birhanu provided a daily update of Ethiopian news. Ethiopia is deeply unhappy that some nations are pressuring the UN Security Council to take this issue into account. This is a flagrant infraction of the prerogative of legitimate national security of Ethiopia. We are convinced that the Security Council will reject this unnecessarily politicized humanitarian aid.

We trust that this step will have no impact on the delivery of humanitarian aid. In truth, the continuous attacks of Tplf against civilians, the forced displacement of people, the killing of livestock, the damage of economic assets and the seizure of more than 400 trucks are part of a mammoth plan.
