Dina Mufti, the spokesman of the Ethiopian ministry of foreign affairs, said renewed provocations by the TPLF have made it difficult for the federal government to deliver the badly-needed aid to the Tigray region, but said the government is doing its best to make sure that these needs are delivered.<\/p>\n<div id=\"sudan-1881651361\" class=\"sudan-content_3\"><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe renewed provocation on the part of the TPLF continues to impact innocent civilians and disrupt their livelihoods. Though the government has allocated funds for relief efforts, the hostile group continues to impede the delivery of relief not only to Tigray but also to the conflict-affected zones in Afar and Amhara regions,\u201d Amb. Mufti told The Horn Review.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn addition to funds and resources allocated to these regions, we are doing our level best to create unimpeded access. This is a priority for the Ethiopian government and remains the interest of the international community,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<div id=\"sudan-200657485\" class=\"sudan-content_4\"><\/div>\n<p>The Ethiopian diplomat stressed that the people and government of Ethiopia \u201cbelieve that the people should be helped, and we are primarily concerned with their welfare and security. Unfortunately, this group has been impeding, if not halting, our efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis fact should not only be widely acknowledged but thoroughly condemned, as delivery of assistance is contingent upon access to conflict-affected areas. This is the current reality, and we need to consider these facts and call a spade a spade,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<div id=\"sudan-1587403219\" class=\"sudan-content_5\"><\/div>\n<p>He said the government was \u201cindeed working with international partners, like the WFP. However, as Amhara and Afar regions are most severely affected by TPLFs aggression, we call on our partners and stakeholders to place heavier emphasis on efforts to relief destinations in these regions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThough some gaps in aid and delivery are expected, there remains a visible gap between the urgent need on the ground and existing efforts in meeting them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ADDIS ABABA (SUDANS POST) \u2013 Ethiopian government has said that the rebellious Tigray People\u2019s Liberation Front (TPLF) has continued to provoke clashes with federal forces in Afar and Amhara regions derailing the delivery of humanitarian assistance needed by millions of citizens suffering from hunger in the Tigray region.
