5. While Tigrayans in Italy are mourning #500DaysOfTigrayGenocide, @MarinaSereni of @ItalyMFA continues to fund @AbiyAhmedAli’s genocidal regime by signing new economic agreements with Ethiopia. All despite the 120k women raped by ENDF. @PiazzapulitaLA7 https://twitter.com/ItalyinEthiopia/status/1498752704214192133
6. .@ItalyMFA’s double standards are despicable: On one 🫱 @luigidimaio rightfully condemned Russia’s war crimes. On the other 🫲 @MarinaSereni keeps funding @AbiyAhmedAli (via @aics_it).#BlackLivesMatter too! #500DaysOfTigrayGenocide @PiazzapulitaLA7

7. Talking about economic bonds with Ethiopia after #500DaysOfTigrayGenocide is despicable.Talking about the “role of women in peace processes” with @SahleWorkZewde, the president of a govt responsible for 120k rapes is shameful! @MarinaSereni @luigidimaio https://twitter.com/ItalyinEthiopia/status/1498691482169008129
8. Yet another wicked choice by @MarinaSereni! On top of stipulating new economic deals with Ethiopia, after #500DaysOfTigrayGenocide; she also has the nerve to meet with @DemekeHasen, the instigator of genocide. @ItalyMFA is run by criminals. @repubblica https://twitter.com/ItalyinEthiopia/status/1498332044174241797
9. For #500DaysOfTigrayGenocide civilians have been imprisoned, gang-raped, bombed, burned, drowned & murdered by @PMEthiopia. Yet, @MarinaSereni of @ItalyMFA recently went to Addis to sign new economic deals with @AbiyAhmedAli! @ItalyinEthiopia @aics_it https://www.usnews.com/news/world/articles/2022-03-07/more-than-300-killed-in-air-strikes-in-northern-ethiopia-since-nov-un-rights-chief
