Ethiopia’s sham election – June 03, 2021

Friday 06/03/2021

US – English

1. The Tigray & Oromo communities are #UnitedAgainstAbiy because he is a threat to democracy. World leaders must condemn him for the turmoil & Genocide Ethiopia has faced on his watch. Are you going to call out the upcoming #ShamEthiopianElection? @SecBlinken @LindaT_G @StateDept

2. Int’l leaders must not only condemn @AbiyAhmedAli for the #TigrayGenocide but also for the upcoming #ShamEthiopianElection. He has strategically set this up to be a fraudulent election by either killing or jailing all opposition. #UnitedAgainstAbiy @SenBooker @ChrisCoons

3. Lives, democracy, & @pressfreedom are all under threat in Ethiopia because of @AbiyAhmedAli & his corrupt govt. We are #UnitedAgainstAbiy because he was never fit to lead with honesty & inclusion. Call out the #ShamEthiopianElection. @ICIJorg @CFR_org https://www.politico.eu/article/ethiopia-expels-journalist-who-reported-on-atrocities-in-tigray/

4. In order to consolidate his power, @AbiyAhmedAli will go to great lengths even if it means the merciless slaughter of innocent men, women, & children. The world must be #UnitedAgainstAbiy & his #ShamEthiopianElection. @USAmbUN @SpeakerPelosi @AOC @Ilhan https://www.newstribune.com/news/international/story/2021/may/29/eritrean-troops-kill-rape-loot-in-tigray/872987/

5. It is deeply concerning that the @UN Security Council and other world leaders, are allowing an unelected PM to continue a telecom blackout, a refugee crisis, a famine, a GENOCIDE & now a #EthiopianShamElection. #UnitedAgainstAbiy @SecBlinken @LindaT_G https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/12/africa/tigray-axum-aid-blockade-cmd-intl/index.html

6. .@BarackObama, as a descendant of the Horn Of Africa you have been silent when it comes #TigrayGenocide & how it’s impacting the HOA. You said, “you need to vote b/c our democracy depends on it.” An upcoming #ShamEthiopianElection is threatening democracy. What’s your stance?

7. .@MichelleObama, you said, “Elections aren’t just about who votes but who doesn’t vote.” Tigrayans are being punished by Genocide for holding elections, & now a #ShamEthiopianElection will take place without including them. Will you at least condemn this? #UnitedAgainstAbiy

8. Fair & free elections will not take place in Ethiopia as long @AbiyAhmedAli is in office. World leaders should be ashamed for allowing him to get this far with #TigrayGenocide & the suppression of press. #ShamEthiopianElection @SecBlinken @RepGregoryMeeks @SenatorRisch @UN

9. With ongoing violence throughout the country, voting in many areas will not take place. The people’s voice is being suppressed & opposition leaders are jailed. This is a #ShamEthiopianElection! #UnitedAgainstAbiy @jakejsullivan @SamanthaJPower @RepBera https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-05-08/ethiopia-under-pressure-of-election-deadline-mulls-postponement

10. Political parties that represent an ideological difference to Abiy Ahmed’s Prosperity Party have either been barred from the elections, their leaders imprisoned or are boycotting the elections! This is not democracy. #ShamEthiopianElection @SecBlinken @USAmbUN @SVG_UN

11. .@UNOCHA identified at least 358,000 internally displaced persons (IDPs) in North Shewa & Oromo Special Zones need urgent assistance.The gov’t continues using violent practices that contrast to the foundations of democracy. #ShamEthiopianElection @POTUS https://addisstandard.com/news-at-least-358000-idps-in-north-shewa-oromo-special-zones-need-urgent-assistance-un/

12. Many leaders have condemned the Eritrean & Ethiopian govt’s. for the ongoing #TigrayGenocide. We can’t for a moment think @AbiyAhmedAli will hold fair elections in Ethiopia. He is orchestrating a #ShamEthiopianElection. Please ACT! @SenateGOP @Niger_ONU @KenyaMissionUN

13. The planned election by @AbiyAhmedAli isn’t on track to meet Intl. standards for freedom, fairness & transparency. If election moves forward without the reform required, tensions across the country will boil over into greater violence. #ShamEthiopianElection @ICIJorg @CFR_org

14. Ethiopia under the dictatorship of @AbiyAhmedAli is going through one of its most volatile times, and is not in a safe or trustworthy state to hold an election. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @ggreenwald @ThomasVLinge @EP_President @StateDRL https://apnews.com/article/only-on-ap-eritrea-africa-religion-9fe9140b76da946e4fa65095a1d5b04f

15. How can you hold a fair election while only allowing a privileged few to vote? By letting this to continue, the democratic world is failing the people of Ethiopia.#ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @NEDemocracy @SVG_UN @BernieSanders @RonWyden @IRIglobal @pressfreedom

16. The people of #Tigray & #Oromia aren’t able to vote for their elected candidates due to the Ethiopian Govt’s war on both of these regions. This makes the upcoming election unequal & in favor of the current ruling party. #ShamEthiopianElection @SenatorLeahy @SenatorDurbin

17. How can Ethiopia have a fair election with a high no. of #OromoPoliticalPrisoners unjustifiably arrested? The largest ethnic group in Ethiopia currently doesn’t have proper representation. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @washingtonpost @MarkWarner @SenJackyRosen

18. Ethiopia is attempting to create the illusion of democracy by holding elections, but in reality, candidates with opposing views have been imprisoned, killed or are no longer allowed to run. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @openDemocracy @RepSaraJacobs @DarrellIssa

19. .@AbiyAhmedAli is showing the world the extremes he will go to consolidate his power. He is committing genocide without remorse, & his #ShamEthiopianElection does not represent the people. Take action in the name of democracy & justice. @SenateForeign https://apnews.com/article/ethiopia-tigray-minority-ethnic-cleansing-sudan-world-news-842741eebf9bf0984946619c0fc15023

EU – English

1. Unelected PM of Ethiopia, @AbiyAhmedAli, has imprisoned several high-profile electoral candidates & opposition party leaders, under the alleged pretext of being involved in the murder of Oromo musician, Hachalu Hundessa. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EmmanuelMacron

2. We demand that the @EU_Commission representatives call the 2021 Ethiopian election out as a sham, since it does not meet the minimum requirements for free, fair and competitive elections. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EmmanuelMacron https://www.nzz.ch/international/aethiopien-wegweisende-wahl-wird-zum-zweiten-mal-verschoben-ld.1625638

3. Weapon experts say images obtained by @Telegraph show injuries consistent with white phosphorus. No credible elections can be held during such a genocide! #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EmmanuelMacron @Elysee @JeanCASTEX @JY_LeDrian @Senat https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/05/23/exclusive-ethiopians-suffer-horrific-burns-suspected-white-phosphorus

4. Last December, the Ethiopian Govt promised “unfettered humanitarian access,” but large parts of Tigray remain largely cut off due to active hostilities. The Ethiopian government has lost its credibility. Abiy must go! #ShamEthiopianElection @JeanCASTEX https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/5/18/starvation-stalks-ethiopias-tigray-as-war-drags-on

5. Abiy’s term was to end on Oct. 5th, 2020. Still, he held onto power, jailed his opposition, & plans to have a #ShamEthiopianElection, despite the atrocious human rights violations occurring under his administration. @EmmanuelMacron @Elysee @JeanCASTEX @EUCouncil @EstoniaUN

6. There have been perpetual uprisings movements throughout Ethiopia. Since Abiy Ahmed’s ascent to power, Ethiopia has been destabilized by conflict, political suppression, & crimes against humanity. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EmmanuelMacron @Elysee @JeanCASTEX

7. Political parties that represent an ideological difference to Abiy Ahmed’s Prosperity Party have either been barred from the elections, their leaders imprisoned or are boycotting the elections! #ShamEthiopianElection @EmmanuelMacron @Elysee @JeanCASTEX @JY_LeDrian @Senat

8. The regional state of Tigray already conducted its elections in September 2020 in accordance with the Ethiopian federal constitution, & the Tigray regional constitution. In the upcoming #ShamEthiopianElection, Tigrayans will not be able to vote! @Elysee @JeanCASTEX @EUatUN

9. We encourage the EU to urge the Ethiopian regime to release all political prisoners, including leaders imprisoned so they could not take part in the national elections. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EmmanuelMacron @Elysee @JY_LeDrian @pressfreedom @EUCouncil

10. Ethiopia cannot build a democracy when opposition is violently suppressed & a large part of the country is silenced by violence & destruction! #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EmmanuelMacron @Elysee @pressfreedom @UNESCOEU @Senat @AssembleeNa https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/5/20/ethiopia-announces-new-date-for-twice-delayed-national-elections

11. With ongoing violence throughout Ethiopia, voting in many areas will not take place. What is the purpose of an election that excludes millions from voting? It’s a #ShamEthiopianElection. #UnitedAgainstAbiy @Mi_Muentefering @BaerbelKofler @RegSprecher https://www.dw.com/en/ethiopian-election-expected-to-deepen-rifts/a-57496087

12. The National Election Board of Ethiopia won’t hold elections in 40 constituencies due to security reasons, particularly in areas with high IDPs. That excludes millions from voting. #ShamEthiopianElection @HeikoMaas @Haavisto @EU_Commission @vonderleyen https://addisstandard.com/news-electoral-board-issues-list-of-40-constituencies-in-six-regions-where-elections-wont-take-place-per-schedule/

13. .@NEBEthiopia claims the election has been postponed due to logistic & low voter registration numbers. The absence of voters is caused by the current administration. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EU_Commission @AA_stabilisiert @nouripour https://www.voanews.com/africa/ethiopia-must-set-right-environment-election-us-says

14. How can Oromia vote when all their political leaders are either in jail or killed? How can Tigray vote when 91% are at risk of starvation? This is not fair & free as they have no voice! @EUCouncil @juergenhardt #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-57094394

15. It is not a fair & free election when the Ethiopian Govt is actively committing #TigrayGenocide, ethnic cleansing in various regions, & jailing or killing important #Oromo politicians. #ShamEthiopianElection @juergenhardt @nouripour @EU_Commission https://www.nzz.ch/international/aethiopien-westen-hat-abiy-ahmed-falsch-eingeschaetzt-ld.1610116?reduced=true

16. There have been damning reports of abuses and massive human rights violations such as jailing & killing important #Oromo politicians, #TigrayGenocide, & ethnic cleansing in various parts of Ethiopia. #ShamEthiopianElection @JosepBorrellF @Haavisto @nouripour @juergenhardt

17. This #ShamEthiopianElection will leave a bitter taste for those that are excluded to exercise their right to vote. False democracy will only serve, justify, and support a corrupt administration #UnitedAgainstAbiy @HeikoMaas @nouripour @RegSprecher https://addisstandard.com/news-electoral-board-issues-list-of-40-constituencies-in-six-regions-where-elections-wont-take-place-per-schedule/

18. The current administration justifies extrajudicial killings, weaponized rape + hunger. They jailed all the political opponents & excluded the majority of Ethiopia’s population from these elections. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EU_Commission https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/5/20/ethiopia-announces-new-date-for-twice-delayed-national-elections

19. Over 7 months @AbiyAhmedAli shows no remorse but justifies weaponized rape, weaponized starvation & carries out a witch hunt by labeling political opponents as terrorists. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EU_Commission @BaerbelKofler @HeikoMaas https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-05-06/ethiopia-declares-tigray-oromia-groups-terrorist-organizations

20. .@luigidimaio, instead of pretending to worry about Ethiopia, why don’t you cancel????????’s military accord (law 20G00107) w/ @AbiyAhmedAli? We are tired of your silence & hypocrisy. Speak up against #ShamEthiopianElection! @PiazzapulitaLA7 #UnitedAgainstAbiy https://www.esteri.it/mae/en/sala_stampa/archivionotizie/comunicati/partecipazione-del-min-di-maio-al-consiglio-affari-esteri-dell-ue-in-formato-virtuale.html

1. How can @luigidimaio be so indifferent to such a catastrophic humanitarian crisis? Where is @ItalyMFA leadership in regard to #TigrayGenocide?

2. Why doesn’t @guerini_lorenzo want to clarify his position on the military accord b/w @MinisteroDifesa & @AbiyAhmedAli? Does ????????’s Gov want to be aligned with a dictator that commits genocide, orders mass rape & organizes #ShamEthiopianElection⁉️https://www.gazzettaufficiale.it/eli/id/2020/08/04/20G00107/sg

3. .@guerini_lorenzo & @luigidimaio know that @AbiyAhmedAli @M_Farmaajo @IsmailOguelleh & Isaias Afwerki are all responsible for #TigrayGenocide. @MinisteroDifesa needs to stop selling weapons to dictators & condemn the #ShamEthiopianElection! @reportrai3 https://www.difesa.it/EN/Primo_Piano/Pagine/Minister-Guerini-concluded-his-two-day-visit-in-the-Horn-of-Africa.aspx

4. ????????’s ex-Minister @Eli_Trenta admitted that @AbiyAhmedAli deceived her & @NobelPeaceOslo. Yet, she doesn’t clarify whether the military deal b/w @MinisteroDifesa & the ????????n dictator has been implemented! @PiazzapulitaLA7 @guerini_lorenzo#UnitedAgainstAbiy https://twitter.com/Eli_Trenta/status/1398370190732242949

6. “????????’s interest is to ensure that Ethiopia maintains a unified structure & moves towards credible elections” cit. @MarinaSereni of @ItalyMFA. Meanwhile, @Europarl_EN & @StateDept condemn @AbiyAhmedAli’s #ShamEthiopianElection & mass rapes. @reportrai3 https://cutt.ly/InrWgRf

7. We asked @Palazzo_Chigi to condemn #TigrayGenocide like the rest of????????&????????. This is the response we got from @ItalyinEthiopia:@ItalyMFA & @luigidimaio will donate 400k????to @NEBEthiopia & @AbiyAhmedAli for their #ShamEthiopianElection. @PiazzapulitaLA7 shorturl.at/mnBIL

8. 210+ days of #TigrayGenocide & #OromoProtests! Does Deputy Min. of @ItalyMFA @MarinaSereni still think that “@AbiyAhmedAli’s main idea was to overcome ethnic federalism in the name of an inclusive democracy for all ethnic groups”? #UnitedAgainstAbiy https://www.avvenire.it/mondo/pagine/tigrai-pieno-accesso

9. While @Europarl_EN????????condemns the 10k+ confirmed rapes of #TigrayGenocide & questions the #ShamEthiopianElection; Mistretta of @ItalyMFA considers @AbiyAhmedAli’s “admission of CERTAIN EXCESSES” as an important development.????#UnitedAgainstAbiy @reportrai3 https://www.focusonafrica.info/tigray-mistretta-maeci-italia-segue-conflitto-presto-il-ministro-degli-esteri-in-etiopia/

10. Why are #italian politicians quiet about #TigrayGenocide & #ShamEthiopianElection? Civilians are being massacred & raped!

11. .@pdnetwork’s @LiaQuartapelle is the most hypocritical politician in regards to #TigrayGenocide. First, she refused to call it “genocide.” Then we realized that she was part of the commission that stipulated the military deal with @AbiyAhmedAli????#UnitedAgainstAbiy @welikeduel

12. You, madam @LiaQuartapelle, are part of the committee that promoted the military deal with @AbiyAhmedAli. In the last 7 months, the ????????n dictator ordered countless mass rapes in the #TigrayGenocide. Your hypocrisy is EMBARRASSING.????#UnitedAgainstAbiy shorturl.at/lswxG

13. Sad to see that on top of being quiet, ????????also:1. has an ongoing military agreement with@AbiyAhmedAli2. will fund the #ShamEthiopianElection of @NEBEthiopia with 400k@MinisteroDifesa @guerini_lorenzo @luigidimaio #Draghi @Montecitorio @Palazzo_Chigi shorturl.at/mCMU6

EU – Italian

1. Abbiamo chiesto a @Palazzo_Chigi di condannare il #TigrayGenocide come il resto d’????????&????????. Questa è la risposta di @ItalyinEthiopia: @ItalyMFA & @luigidimaio doneranno 400k????a @NEBEthiopia & @AbiyAhmedAli per la loro #ShamEthiopianElection. @welikeduel shorturl.at/eDFV0

2. #Draghi’s @Palazzo_Chigi is:1. Selling weapons to Ethiopia Somalia & ???????? via @MinisteroDifesa & @guerini_lorenzo -law20G001072. Funding the #ShamEthiopianElection of @AbiyAhmedAliWhy is ???????? funding the state-sponsored #TigrayGenocide? @PiazzapulitaLA7 shorturl.at/jnqrF

3. #Draghi e @Palazzo_Chigi:1. Vendono armi a Etiopia Somalia &???????? tramite il @MinisteroDifesa & @guerini_lorenzo -legge20G001072. Finanziano la #ShamEthiopianElection di @AbiyAhmedAliPerché l’???????? finanzia il #TigrayGenocide? @PiazzapulitaLA7 @welikeduel shorturl.at/alnHT

4. .@LiaQuartapelle del @pdnetwork è la politica più ipocrita in merito al #TigrayGenocide. Prima si è rifiutata di chiamarlo “genocidio.”Poi abbiamo scoperto che faceva parte della commissione che ha stipulato l’accordo militare con @AbiyAhmedAli????#UnitedAgainstAbiy @welikeduel

5. Lei signora @LiaQuartapelle fa parte della commissione che ha stipulato l’accordo militare 20G00107 con @AbiyAhmedAli. Sono 7 mesi che il dittatore d’????????ordina stupri di massa nel #TigrayGenocide. Inizi a riconoscere che la sua ipocrisia è imbarazzante shorturl.at/lswxG

6. .@AbiyAhmedAli rimanda nuovamente le elezioni in Ethiopia continuando a massacrare il Tigray reo di aver eletto i propri rappresentanti regionali come da Costituzione. Il silenzio di @luigidimaio è scandaloso! La prossima sarà una #ShamEthiopianElection https://www.cesi-italia.org/articoli/1354/cesi-update-etiopia-il-rinvio-delle-elezioni-mina-la-credibilit-di-abiy-ahmed

7. Ricordiamo che la legge185 vieta all’???????? di vendere armi senza garanzie sulla loro destinazione finale. Il viaggio di @guerini_lorenzo in Somalia, paese che appoggia @AbiyAhmedAli nel #TigrayGenocide ci preoccupa! #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy https://www.difesa.it/EN/Primo_Piano/Pagine/Minister-Guerini-concluded-his-two-day-visit-in-the-Horn-of-Africa.aspx

8. Mentre @AbiyAhmedAli organizza la #ShamEthiopianElection dopo aver arrestato tutti gli oppositori; il @MinisteroDifesa tace in merito all’accordo militare firmato con l’???????? e ufficializzato 3 mesi prima del #TigrayGenocide @guerini_lorenzo @welikeduel https://www.gazzettaufficiale.it/eli/id/2020/08/04/20G00107/sg

9. Dopo aver posticipato per l’ennesima volta la #ShamEthiopianElection, @NEBEthiopia & @AbiyAhmedAli proclamano la nuova data. Il ritiro della missione di osservazione dell’#EU (per mancanza di trasparenza) dimostra che le elezioni d’???????? non sono credibili. https://www.cvm.an.it/permangono-forti-preoccupazioni-per-la-situazione-del-tigray/

1. Angesichts der anhaltenden Gewalt in #Äthiopien wird die Wahl in vielen Gebieten nicht stattfinden. Was ist der Zweck einer Wahl, die Millionen von der Stimmabgabe ausschließt? #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @BaerbelKofler @nouripour https://www.dw.com/de/äthiopien-wahlen-keine-wunder/a-57466689

2. Die nationale Wahlbehörde von ???????? wird aus Sicherheitsgründen in 40 Wahlkreisen keine Wahlen abhalten, vor allem in Gebieten mit vielen IDP’s. Das schließt Mio von der Wahl aus. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @AA_stabilisiert @RegSprecher https://www.saarbruecker-zeitung.de/nachrichten/politik/ausland/schwierige-parlamentswahlen-im-hexenkessel-aethiopien_aid-58507373

3. .@NEBEthiopia behauptet, die Wahl sei aufgrund logistischer Probleme & zu geringer Wählerregistrierungszahlen verschoben. Die Abwesenheit von Wählern wird jedoch durch die Regierungspolitik verursacht. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @HeikoMaas https://bit.ly/2TtcdTe

4. Wie kann #Oromia wählen, wenn alle Oppositionellen entweder im Gefängnis sind oder getötet wurden?Wie kann #Tigray wählen, wenn 91% an Hunger sterben+Krieg herrscht? Sie haben keine Stimmen bei dieser Wahl. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @GregorGysi @AuswaertigesAmt

5. Was ist der Sinn einer Wahl, wenn die Regierung aktiv #TigrayGenocide, ethnische Säuberungen in verschiedenen Teilen #Äthiopiens begeht, alle wichtigen #Oromo-Politiker einsperrt und tötet? @AuswaertigesAmt @AA_stabilisiert @HeikoMaas #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy

6. Vernichtende Berichte über massive Menschenrechtsverletzungen, Inhaftierung wichtiger Oromo Oppositioneller, #TigrayGenocide, ethnische Säuberungen in verschiedenen Teilen ????????’s.

7. Diese #ShamEthiopianElection wird einen bitteren Beigeschmack für diejenigen hinterlassen, die von der Wahl ausgeschlossen werden. Falsche Demokratie dient und rechtfertigt nur einer korrupten Regierung. #UnitedAgainstAbiy @HeikoMaas @Mi_Muentefering https://www.dw.com/de/äthiopien-wahlen-keine-wunder/a-57466689

8. Die jetzige Regierung rechtfertigt bewaffnete Vergewaltigung + Hungersnot. Sie haben politischen Gegner inhaftiert & schließt die Mehrheit der Bevölkerung von diesen Wahlen aus. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @MKoehlerEU @AA_stabilisiert https://addisstandard.com/news-electoral-board-issues-list-of-40-constituencies-in-six-regions-where-elections-wont-take-place-per-schedule/

9. Seit über 7 Monate zeigt @AbiyAhmedAli keine Reue, sondern rechtfertigt den Krieg in #Tigray, sowie auch die Hexenjagd gegen politische Gegner. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @MKoehlerEU @BaerbelKofler @AA_stabilisiert https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-05-06/ethiopia-declares-tigray-oromia-groups-terrorist-organizations

2. ????????est incapable d’organiser des élections équitables. Les membres de l’opposition Oromo sont en prison. La guerre et la terreur au Tigré empêche les gens de voter. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EmmanuelMacron @Elysee @JeanCASTEX @JY_LeDrian https://information.tv5monde.com/afrique/ethiopie-les-elections-legislatives-reportees-pour-raisons-logistiques-408898

3. Comment les Oromos peuvent-ils voter si tous les membres de l’opposition sont en prison ou tués ? Comment les Tigrés peuvent-ils voter alors que 91% meurent de faim? Cette election est illegitime. @EmmanuelMacron @JeanCASTEX @JY_LeDrian #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy

4. .@NEBEthiopia n’organisera pas d’élections dans 40 circonscriptions pour des raisons de sécurité, notamment où se trouvent de nombreuses IDPs. Cela exclut des mio du vote. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EmmanuelMacron @JeanCASTEX @JY_LeDrian https://addisstandard.com/news-electoral-board-issues-list-of-40-constituencies-in-six-regions-where-elections-wont-take-place-per-schedule/

5. Nombreux rapports de violations des droits de l’homme, détention de l’opposition Oromo, nettoyage ethnique dans diverses régions, particulièrement en Tigray. #TigrayGenocide. Les élections seront illegitime. #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @Elysee @JeanCASTEX @Senat

6. L’Ethiopie devait initialement voter en août 2020, mais @AbiyAhmedAli a déjà repoussé par deux fois les élections #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EU_Commission @EUCouncilPres @Senat @EmmanuelMacron https://www.lemonde.fr/afrique/article/2021/05/20/l-ethiopie-fixe-au-21-juin-la-nouvelle-date-des-elections-nationales_6080891_3212.html

7.

8. À son arrivée au pouvoir, @AbiyAhmedAli avait promis d’organiser les élections les plus démocratiques que le pays ait jamais connues. En lieu et place, il a organisé la crise humanitaire la plus meurtrière #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @JosepBorrellF @EmmanuelMacron

9. Comment l’Ethiopie appelle à des élections démocratiques alors que le Tigray, plongé dans un désastre humanitaire, n’y participera pas en raison d’une offensive militaire lancée par @AbiyAhmedAli #ShamEthiopianElection @EmmanuelMacron @EUCouncilPress https://information.tv5monde.com/afrique/ethiopie-les-elections-legislatives-reportees-pour-raisons-logistiques-408898

10. .@AbiyAhmedAli prolonge son mandat par le report des élections, sous couvert de la crise sanitaire et maintenant de logistique insuffisante, est-ce ce qu’on peut appeler des élections démocratiques ? #ShamEthiopianElection #UnitedAgainstAbiy @EU_Commission @EUCouncilPress
