The Architecture of Collapse: Ethiopia’s Convergent Crises and the Question of Civilisational Survival

Ethiopian Tribune editor

How regional war, electoral consolidation, diaspora uprising, and conflicting visions of national identity threaten to unravel the Horn of Africa’s oldest continuous state

The Agaezi National Union Party’s perspective, articulated from within diaspora and intellectual circles, represents one such competing vision. The ANU’s analysis emphasises what it terms the “Geez Civilisation” and argues that the separation of Eritrea from Ethiopia constituted a catastrophic historical fragmentation engineered through foreign intervention and facilitated by TPLF-EPLF collaboration that should be characterised as treason against the greater Geez national project.

The Abraham Accords: Part 4 Concludes a Strategic Reckoning

Ethiopian Tribune editor

It is with considerable gratitude that the Ethiopian Tribune presents the final instalment of Dr. Mefkereseb G. Hailu’s four-part analytical series on the Abraham Accords and their implications for Ethiopian sovereignty, geopolitical positioning, and national strategy. Over the past months, this series has established itself as the most rigorous and unflinching examination of the architecture reshaping the Gulf–Red Sea–Horn region—combining legal-historical analysis, strategic assessment, and an uncompromising focus on the conditions required for Ethiopian agency.

This final instalment, “Assab, Sovereignty, and the Endgame,” moves beyond architecture into operational reality. It addresses what Parts 1–3 have prepared: the political, military, and diplomatic conditions under which Ethiopian sovereignty is recovered; the enduring legal foundations on which that recovery stands; the closing strategic window that demands urgent action; and the binary choice that now confronts the Ethiopian state and people.

WHEN TEWODROS SINGS, ETHIOPIA LISTENS AND THE PALACE TREMBLES

Ethiopian Tribune editor

The press conference that never happened spoke louder than any speech.
In the days leading up to the release, Teddy Afro was reportedly prevented from holding a press conference. He did not protest publicly. He did not issue a statement. He simply announced that the album would drop on YouTube at 2 p.m. The message was clear: if the physical stage is denied, the digital stage remains.

The ‘New Auschwitz’? Targeted Atrocities against Orthodox Amharas in Arsi, Oromia, Ethiopia

Ethiopian Tribune editor

Editor’s Foreword

The Ethiopian Tribune presents this urgent contribution by Professor Girma Berhanu of the University of Gothenburg with a deep sense of editorial responsibility. At a time when Orthodox Christian Amhara communities in the Arsi Zone of Oromia face documented patterns of targeted killings, abductions, and mass displacement, Professor Berhanu’s essay challenges both Ethiopian authorities and the international community to confront what he argues is a gravely underreported humanitarian crisis. Drawing on statements from the Ethiopian Human Rights Commission, major religious institutions, and independent media, and framing his analysis against the moral lessons of the Holocaust, the author makes a compelling and sobering case that silence in the face of systematic violence is not neutrality, it is complicity. We commend this piece to our readers as a necessary and courageous contribution to a conversation Ethiopia can no longer afford to avoid.

Whose Story Is It, Anyway? Al Jazeera, Ethiopia, and the Politics of Selective Outrage

Ethiopian Tribune editor

Perhaps the most intellectually dishonest feature of Al Jazeera’s recent Ethiopia coverage is what it refuses to remember. Ethiopia is home to one of Africa’s largest refugee populations not as a transit country, but as a host. Hundreds of thousands of displaced people from Somalia, Eritrea, Sudan, South Sudan, Syria, and Yemen have found sanctuary on Ethiopian soil. Syrians who fled the catastrophic civil war that Al Jazeera covered with such sustained passion built lives in Addis Ababa, opened businesses, integrated into communities, welcomed, for the most part, without the violent xenophobia that has disfigured the response of certain wealthier nations considerably better placed to absorb displacement. This is an extraordinary humanitarian record. Al Jazeera, so reliably attentive to refugee suffering when it serves a particular narrative, has shown remarkably little interest in it here.

Do They Know It Is Yekatit 12?

Ethiopian Tribune editor

A Date That Refuses to Fade and a City That Cannot Recognise Itself
Fly into Bole International Airport on any given morning and the new visitor to Addis Ababa will likely be struck by something unexpected. Glass towers catch the equatorial light. Half-finished luxury condominium blocks crowd the skyline. Billboards in Arabic and English advertise residential developments with names that evoke the Gulf. A certain class of returning diaspora, a certain strain of breathless travel writing, and a particular kind of investor prospectus have begun circulating a phrase that would have bewildered the city’s founders: Addis Ababa is the new Dubai.

The Long Taxi to Take‑Off: Ethiopia’s Reform Agenda Meets American Caution

Ethiopian Tribune editor

The spectacle unfolded with predictable diplomatic grace. Ahmed Shide, flanked by technocrats bearing reform credentials, presented Ethiopia’s latest infrastructural dream to Christopher Landau: a New International Airport that would, we are told, cement our nation’s place as the aviation crossroads of Africa. The pitch was delivered with the earnest confidence of a government that believes it has finally learned to speak the language of international finance. One wonders whether Washington was listening or merely being polite
