Abiy insisted on using Kissinger’s words. “There has been a contraction, primarily as a reaction to failed efforts. My instinct is—and I hope I am right—that an American President who presents a framework combining fortitude and purpose will be supported.’ Mr. Ahmed repeated these words by replacing “American President” with “EPRDF.” You can watch the below video and judge for yourself.
Since Abiy’s government will never show you what transpired, you most likely have your own conspiracy theories. We are here to help you to make at least one of your conspiracy theories plausible.
Mr. Nega formed Balderas to rule Addis Ababa while there is a legitimate government. This is a definition of terrorism—forming illegitimate groups and confusing the public. That’s a recipe for chaos. The Ethiopian government needs to know whom Mr. Nega is talking to when he is not talking to a camera—whom he is communicating with via email, messengers and phones.
To prevent civil war and chaos, EPRDF needs to go. Unarmed peaceful protests have proved ineffective. The military, which has sworn to protect the nation from foreign enemies, has a duty to protect it from domestic enemies. EPRDF is a domestic enemy. Military coup is the only solution! It. Is. Time.
