Although humanitarian crisis is not a new phenomenon in Ethiopia, the heavy cost of violence has culminated into ethnic atrocities as a consequence of the last war. The outbreak of covid-19 and the inherited ethnic conflicts would jeopardize the security of the Horn of Africa if serious policies are not taken. Thereby, to make an end to the Ethiopian war, the US and other key players have to do everything possible to stop the war; diplomatic and direct contacts are needed to prevent the escalation of the war; a humanitarian response should take place while an investigation is really needed to deter further violations and opening a path towards justice; opening and safeguarding an inclusive space for conversation about the transition.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><b>By:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Imad Atoui, CIGA Research Associate<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Susan Stigant Affiliation: Director of Africa Programs, USIT Organization\/Publisher: United States Institute of Peace Date\/Place:\u00a0 December 3, 2020\/USA Type of Literature: Congressional Testimony\u00a0 Word Count: 3515 Link: https:\/\/www.usip.org\/publications\/2020\/12\/unfolding-conflict-ethiopia\u00a0 Keywords: US, Red Sea, Ethiopia, TPLF, The Horn of Africa \u00a0 Brief: \u00a0 This Congressional Testimony is a testimony by Susan Stigant, director of Africa Programs [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":5072,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5071","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-nile-valley-north-africa"],"blocksy_meta":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/geopoliticalcompass.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/The-Unfolding-Conflict-in-Ethiopia.jpg",1500,844,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/geopoliticalcompass.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/The-Unfolding-Conflict-in-Ethiopia-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/geopoliticalcompass.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/The-Unfolding-Conflict-in-Ethiopia-300x169.jpg",300,169,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/geopoliticalcompass.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/The-Unfolding-Conflict-in-Ethiopia-768x432.jpg",768,432,true],"large":["https:\/\/geopoliticalcompass.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/The-Unfolding-Conflict-in-Ethiopia-1024x576.jpg",1024,576,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/geopoliticalcompass.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/The-Unfolding-Conflict-in-Ethiopia.jpg",1500,844,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/geopoliticalcompass.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/The-Unfolding-Conflict-in-Ethiopia.jpg",1500,844,false]},"author_info":{"info":["CIGA Staff"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/geopoliticalcompass.com\/?cat=33\" rel=\"category\">Nile Valley &amp;
