Vreedzaam protest voor hervormingen...

ASMEDIA ( Den Haag) - Donderdagmiddag 22 maart tussen 13.00 uur en 15.30 uur hebben Nederlandse Ethiopiërs in Den Haag geprotesteerd tegen het Oost-Afrikaanse regime. De menigte protesteerde tegen het staatshoofd en diens regime in Ethiopië. Via leuzen en protestborden eisten ze onder andere: gelijke rechten voor iedereen; het stoppen van gedwongen migraties van de etnische groep van de Oromo's; de vrijlating van de politieke gevangenen; en het stoppen van het bloedvergieten in het land. Hierbij riepen ze het EU en Nederland op om te stoppen met financiële steun aan het land en de steun aan de dictatuur. Een kleine honderd man was aan het demonstreren. De demonstratie startte bij de Bezuidenhoutseweg en rond 14.30 uur vertrok de stoet onder politiebegeleiding naar het Lange Voorhout. De demonstratie verliep rustig.

‘We Are Everywhere’: How Ethiop...

FENDIKA, Ethiopia — When he is away from his fields, Takele Alene, a farmer in northern Ethiopia, spends a lot of his time prying into the personal and political affairs of his neighbors. He knows who pays taxes on time, who has debts and who is embroiled in a land dispute. He also keeps a sharp lookout for thieves, delinquents and indolent workers. But he isn’t the village busybody, snooping of his own accord. Mr. Alene is a government official, whose job includes elements of both informant and enforcer. He is responsible for keeping the authorities briefed on potential rabble-rousers and cracking down on rule breakers. ...

Ethiopia’s Refugees Unsafe in Kenya and Elsewhere HRW | “Wako” fled Ethiopia for Kenya in 2012, after his release from prison. He had been locked up for two years after campaigning for the Oromo People’s Congress, an opposition party that has often been targeted by the government. In Kenya, he hoped to be safe. But six months later Ethiopian officials kidnapped him in Nairobi and brought him to Ethiopia’s notorious Ziway prison, where he was mistreated and tortured, before being released. He fled to Kenya a second time. When I spoke to him in Kenya, he said he planned to travel overland to South Africa. He hoped for better safety there. Human Rights Watch has documented numerous cases of harassment and threats against Ethiopian asylum seekers in Kenya and elsewhere since 2010. In a recent letter to the Kenyan police, to which they have not responded,...

The role of Women in the Oromo Nati...

Introduction The role of the Oromo women during the early liberation struggle led by OLF The aftermath of the occupation by the Abyssinians and its effect on the behavioral patterns of the Oromo women and men The obstacles to emancipations Conclusion In any given liberation movement the role of women is equally important as the role of men to make the objectives of the movement a reality. Without women's participation in the struggle for political, socio-economic and cultural freedom, independence cannot achieve its goal in the shortest possible time. Roughly the Oromo women constitute 50% of the population. Therefore, we cannot expect a genuine national liberation struggle if we ignore or marginalize half of the Oromo population. For us the Oromo women, taking part in the Oromo national liberation movement is our right as well as our duty.Our fate is inte...

Ethiopia admits 2016 unrest death t...

The official death toll from last year’s civil unrest in Ethiopia came to 669 people, according to a report to the parliament in Addis Ababa this week. Euractiv | Long-standing grievances over land-allocation and political marginalisation in the Oromia and Amhara regions saw spontaneous ‘illegal’ protests and the killing of some 600 civilians by security forces, according to the Ethiopian Human Rights Commission (EHRC). That lead to a six-month state of emergency in one of the few stable states in Horn of Africa, and a major beneficiary of EU and NGO aid. At first the official figure for the dead was 177, although groups such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch were already saying the number was closer to between 400 and 500. The EHRC report, appointed by the government and given to parliament on 18 April, gives a total of 669 deaths, with a detailed breakdown. It finds that 495 people (465 civilians, 33 security personnel) died in Oromia, 140 pe...

HRW: Letter on Ethiopia to the EU H...

Federica Mogherini High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs / Vice-President of the European Commission Rue de la Loi, Wetstraat 200 1049 Brussels Brussels, March 23, 2017 Dear High Representative Mogherini, Human Rights Watch wishes to express our deep disappointment over the one-sided statement issued by your office during your official visit to Ethiopia last week. In the public statement of March 17, 2017, you focus only on the important European Union partnerships with Ethiopia on humanitarian assistance, migration, refugees, and economic growth, and reiterate your support for the dialogue with the political opposition currently underway. In our view the statement was a missed opportunity to state publicly and unequivocally that Ethiopia’s repressive response to freedom of expression and peacefu...

Politically Motivated Charges Again...

HRW| Three months after Ethiopian security forces arrested opposition leader Dr. Merera Gudina upon his return to Ethiopia, following his participation in a hearing at the European parliament about the crisis in his home country, prosecutors on Thursday charged the prominent 60-year-old politician with rendering support to terrorism and attempting to “disrupt constitutional order.” Ethiopian marathon runner Feyisa Lelisa and the head of the banned opposition group Ginbot 7, Dr. Berhanu Nega, had also participated in the hearing that had been hosted by Member of the European Parliament Ana Gomes, and which was to inform delegates about the protests that have swept through Ethiopia since November 2015. Hundreds of people have be...

(Nairobi) – Ethiopia plunged into a human rights crisis in 2016, increasing restrictions on basic rights during a state of emergency and continuing a bloody crackdown against largely peaceful protesters, Human Rights Watch said today in its World Report 2017. The state of emergency permits arbitrary detention, restricts access to social media, and bans communications with foreign groups. Security forces killed hundreds and detained tens of thousands of protesters in Ethiopia’s Oromia and Amhara regions during the year....
