Abiy Ahmed's Calculations

What he said is something he has already been doing..He probably said this during the Tigray war. He was right this type of war can easily cripple states like Tigray because they can't replenish the supply of fresh fighters and munitions.
This strategy is also deployed on Amhara and the war is now 3 years old. Even though it made Fano grow to more formidable force, he was able to cripple life and Amhara economy to his desire.
His calculation is aimed at continuing this for 10 - 20 years. One aimed at frustrating and crippling life in general than battlefield sudden victories which he knows he can't get. He is also getting massive support from UAE.
One clear thing we can say is that this butcher doesn't care if millions after millions die protecting his power. He is not like Mengistu who will leave the country to avoid further bloodshed accepting his lose. This guy will throw everyone to the Frontline if he finishs the human resource available.
