Why is the Ethiopian government negotiating with TPLF just because US/AU/EU say so? ( The US has, and does, negotiate with terrorists. Sometimes it even arms, trains and funds them. TPLF being one of them) .
The Ethiopian government is allowing itself to be kicked around like football by giving in to US/EU/AU unacceptable interference rather than serving the interest of the Ethiopian people.
Abiy Ahmed should ignore EU/US and bring in Russia,China,etc while making sure TPLF is destroyed for good.
Re: Why negotiate with TPLF that US funds and arms????
The United States has had a long-standing policy that we do not, under any conditions, negotiate with terrorists. This isn’t an act of bravado on the level of national policy; there are a variety of reasons for it actually:
· Negotiating emboldens other non-state/extremist organizations to pursue a similar tactic in the hope of a similar outcome.
· It discourages other organizations from seeking peaceful resolutions to problems, aka using diplomacy vs. violence to achieve your goals.
· It legitimizes illegitimate organizations, putting them on par with recognized nations.
· It rewards the terrorists in question for their activities.
Why is the US/AU be allowed to put their long hooters in Ethiopia's domestic affairs using double standards???
Re: Why negotiate with TPLF that US funds and arms????
I guess one of these or their combination could be the reason
1) PP would like to appear as peaceful government of Ethiopia to the world.
2) PP want to mend its affairs with its ex-friend (TPLF) - may be PP missed TPLF so much
3) PP asked them (US and Canada) to help strike a deal ( Rember what Abiy Ahmed said about his dedication)
4) PP wants money from the USA, Canada and Europe
5) PP does not want TPLF banned from Ethiopia for it serves as pace maker in the Orommuma march
What else can one say? If TPLF is defeated, you do not need to sit with it and waste time. Rather move on the next project - that is doing away TPLF's bad legacy such as it Dedebit Constitution and the Internationally Outlawed tribal federation and ethnic parties from the land.
