Each war drains what little the country has left: skilled workers, farmers, cash reserves, and confidence. The brief notes that rural Ethiopia, home to three-quarters of the population, is now trapped in multi-dimensional poverty.
95% of households lack even basic sanitation.
70% have no electricity.
Half of rural children are stunted—a human tragedy that no reform plan can disguise.
Add inflation, currency depreciation, and ballooning debt, and the pattern becomes unmistakable. Ethiopia is fighting too many battles—on too many fronts—and losing them all.
