Deputy Premier calls on Ethiopians to shatter conspiracy by enemies with unity

Addis Ababa, May 11, 2022 (FBC) – Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Demeke Mekonnen attended an event held in Bahir Dar City, the capital of Amhara Region to recognize members of security forces for their services during the law enforcement operation.

Addressing gatherings at the ceremony, Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Demeke noted that enemies of Ethiopia are conspiring to wreak havoc in the country in the guise of religion, calling all Ethiopians to shatter such a threat with unity and national integrity.

Citing the horrendous and cold-blooded attack on the Northern Command of the Army by the terrorist TPLF forces as a plot to dismantle Ethiopia, the Deputy Premier underlined that the national army together with regional security forces has repulsed such a threat.

He further warned the terrorist TPLF group to stop its belligerence, saying the government is ready to repulse any potential belligerence unless the other refrains from its antagonism.

The sacrifices paid by the Ethiopian Defense Forces and the regional security forces will be remembered by the generations to come, he added.
