Senior Ethiopian officials Redwan Hussein and Getachew Reda recently published an opinion article that seeks to frame Ethiopia as a victim of external conflict, downplaying the ruling Prosperity Party’s role in the country’s crises.

The article also misrepresents the peace talks that concluded the two-year war, ignoring prior communications between the warring factions and Eritrea’s established position on the matter.
