Hopes for peace in Oromia shrink amid red lines and reinforcements

Ethio Telecom CEO Frehiwot Tamiru: an Abiy protégée with devoted underlings

The charismatic and ambitious boss of the state-owned giant has certainly made her mark since taking office five years ago. She can count on the support of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, of whom she is a close friend, and of a group of dedicated, hand-picked executives.

The EU had been at the forefront of efforts to hold Ethiopia to account for human rights abuses committed during the war in Tigray.

Abiy purged his military high command to prepare for his war against the TPLF

As soon as he arrived in power in 2018, the Ethiopian prime minister announced that he planned to reform the Ethiopian army high command, which he saw as a Tigrayan leadership stronghold.
