END OF TYRANNY IS PANACEA FOR AFRICA'S WOES
Press Statement –August 12 2009

A square peg for a round hole or, as Ethiopians say, a blanket for a starving man. In other words irrelevant and that is precisely what comes to mind when we consider the scope and impact of the visit by secretary of state Hilary Clinton to seven African nations. To begin with one wonders why Secretary Clinton avoided visiting Ethiopia where Meles Zenawi a staunch US ally was recently praised as the man who brought democracy to Ethiopia by none other than Clinton's deputy Johnnie Carson.

DENOUNCE THE CEDING OF ETHIOPIAN LAND
EPRP Press Statement -August 5 2009

The traitorous regime of Meles Zenawi has ceded Ethiopian land to the Sudan and it is now giving more than 1.6 million hectares of fertile land to foreigners coming from the Middle East and East Asia. The effect of this appropriation of land by foreigners is negative and not to be underestimated. Presently, 10 million Ethiopians need food aid and lack of food has been a recurrent and persistent problem. Dictatorial rule and bankrupt economic policies have ruined Ethiopian agriculture and reduced the peasantry to starvation and benumbing poverty. Read more...

MELES GOES, MELES STAYS -- A NON ISSUE DIVERSION
EPRP Statement -June 24 2009

The deceptive regime of Meles Zenawi is adept at fabricating false slogans and fake priorities which it cleverly passes to foreign news medias and agencies. In this vein, it has recently circulated a non issue like the possible stepping down of Meles Zenawi from his post as prime minister and tried to cover up the main point that the coming 2010 election is going to be rigged and false as has been witnessed before.

ETHIOPIANS STILL WAITING FOR A VATICAN APOLOGY
EPRP- May 11/2009

The Pope of the Catholic church is presently on a visit to the Middle East and the fact that Vatican has apologized for the negative and condemnable role and position of the Catholic Church during the Second World War and the genocide of Jews makes it imperative that we remind the Pope and the Vatican once again that Ethiopians are still waiting for an apology for the support that Pope Pius XI and the Vatican gave to the invasion of Ethiopia by Mussolini’s fascist army.

SHAME ON THOSE WHO INVITE A TYRANT TO THEIR TABLE
EPRP -MARCH 17/2009 (BY WAY OF AN OPEN LETTER TO BRITISH PM GORDON BROWN)

It is sad to learn that once again the tyrant in Ethiopia, the very man who has ordered so many massacres (Arba Gugu, Water, Adebabaye Iyesus, Gambella, Ogaden, etc), has been invited to London’s next meeting of the G20. Prime Minister Gordon who vociferously calls for the arrest and trial of Sudan’s Omar Beshir has apparently no qualms or moral restraint to invite a criminal tyranny like Meles Zenawi to London to take part in an international conference.

THE STRUGGLE OF ETHIOPIAN WOMEN FOR THEIR RIGHTS CONTINUES
EPRP Statement - March 2009

Ethiopian women observe March 8, alas, not with cries of victory but with declarations and vows to continue the struggle for their basic and fundamental rights.

THE SOMALI DEBACLE OF THE MELES ZENAWI REGIME - EPRP Statement - January 19, 2009

The invading troops of Meles Zenawi have been forced to leave Somalia after two years of wreaking havoc and committing war crimes. The corrupt commander of the troops, the officer who was shaking down Mogadishu business men, that is to say, Gabre Yohannes, did try to put a brave face and to claim that the operation was a success and the mission “accomplished” bringing to mind yet another such claim that turned to be false elsewhere.Read more...
