By Steve Rosenberg BBC News, Moscow Let me begin with an admission. So many times, I’ve thought: “Putin would never do this.” Then he goes and does it. “He’d never annex Crimea, surely?” He did. “He’d never start a war in the Donbas.” He did. “He’d never launch a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.” He has. I’ve concluded that the phrase “would never do” doesn’t apply to Vladimir Putin. And that raises an uncomfortable question: “He’d never press the nuclear button first. Would he?” It’s not a theoretical question. Russia’s leader has just put his country’s nuclear forces on “special” alert, complaining […] Ethiopia’s Ministry of Trade and Regional Integration announced that fuel prices remain unchanged for yet another 30-day period, until April 8, 2022. However, light and hard black diesel, and airplane fuel prices are subject to revision, it has been learned. […] By Ahmed Yusuf, Editor-in-Chief of EthiopianCitizen.com (Twitter handle: @AhmedYusuf_et) On Friday, February 25, 2022, the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) led government of Tigray misleadingly and without shame claimed that it was the owner of or provided exclusive credit to people of Tigray, Ethiopia’s rich traditions, civilizations and ancient history. It deliberately attempted to mislead others saying that the Axumite Civilization centered at the present day Tigray embraced Christianity and accepted the Muslim Refugees of the 7th century Arabia. But the fact is that the Tigrayan values at the time were founded on Ethiopian Orthodox Christian values which are broad and wide […] Afe-Qesar Afework Gebreyesus, the man who served Italian invaders twice, first by helping them convince Lij Gugsa Darge to join their invasion against his cousin Emperor Menelik II in 1896, and then again as a leading collaborator during the Fascist occupation from 1936 to 1941. In 1895 the Italians lured Lij Gugsa Darge, son of Ras Darge Sahle Selassie from his school in Switzerland into Italy. They persuaded him to betray his country and stand with Italy. The Italians promised Lij Gugsa that after they defeated his cousin Menelik II, they would place him on Menelik’s throne and make him […] Yirga Gelaw Woldeyes, Curtin University March 2, 2020·7 min read On the first day of March 124 years ago, traditional warriors, farmers and pastoralists as well as women defeated a well-armed Italian army in the northern town of Adwa in Ethiopia. The outcome of this battle ensured Ethiopia’s independence, making it the only African country never to be colonized. Adwa turned Ethiopia into a symbol of freedom for black people globally. It also led to a change of government in Italy. The town of Adwa is located in Northern Tigray, closer to the southern border of Eritrea. Yeha, the capital […] Just like their men-folk, Ethiopian women were ready to sacrifice themselves to prevent colonialists from sneaking into their country, thus forcing their children to live in servitude. Empress Taytu Bitul is clearly a symbolic woman she was not only a diplomat and stateswoman with resolve but also an ingenious commandant versed in the art of war, a tactician par excellence. Taytu collected ten to twelve thousand women in the camp and issued water jugs to all of them, the army of another kind filled their jugs at the river and were ready to carry water to those who fought, wherever […] Ukrainian delegation agrees to meet with Russians at Belarus border, according to President Zelensky’s officePresident Volodymyr Zelensky’s office said Belarus President Aleksander Lukashenko called the Ukrainian President Sunday. “The politicians have agreed that the Ukrainian delegation will meet with the Russian delegation without preconditions on the Ukrainian-Belarusian border, near the Pripyat River,” his office said. “Aleksander Lukashenko has taken responsibility for ensuring that all planes, helicopters and missiles stationed on the Belarusian territory will remain on the ground during the Ukrainian delegation’s travel, meeting and return.” Russian state news agencies also reported Sunday that a Russian presidential aide said that Ukraine had confirmed it would meet a delegation from the Russian Federation in the Gomel region of Belarus, without […] Aklog Birara (Dr) A close friend whose wedding my wife and I attended in the State of Washington in 1973 reminded me over lunch on February 21, 2022, how troubled I was concerning the distorted characterization and sweeping conclusions on “the national question” in Ethiopia. Leftists at Ethiopia’s higher institution of learning copied the Stalinist version of the “right of nations to self-determination” and propagated it across the globe. Ethno-nationalist elites and secessionists adopted the “national question “as the most compelling organizing principle in Ethiopian politics. Ethiopia’s current ethnicity and language-based constitution emanates from this world view. The ethnicization of […]
