Civic Council blames TPLF for instigating current problem in Ethiopia

Addis Ababa, November 15, 2020 (FBC) – The Ethiopian American Civic Council has accused TPLF of instigating the current problems in Ethiopia.

In a statement issued yesterday, the Council urged the international community, the UN Secretary General and AU Chairperson to recognize the genesis of the current crisis in Ethiopia.

It said “This crisis is instigated by the TPLF to regain its lost dominant position within EPRDF due to the reform process that started in 2018.”

Instead of engaging in the political process, TPLF resorted to making Ethiopia ungovernable, the statement stated.

According to the Council, the only path to peace and stability in Ethiopia is to bring the entire leadership of the TPLF and its accomplices to court of law.

The Council also underscored the need to make them accountable for the treason and heinous crimes they committed against innocent civilians.
