They would not launch this effort. They have some kind of signal of support coming from outside Ethiopia, and this is very dangerous,\u201d Freeman elaborated.<\/p>\n<p>The analyst called on nations who claim to support democracy in Africa to come out now and clearly and vocally denounce any war on the elected government of Ethiopia. \u201cIn fact they\u2019re not doing that, which is very troubling and suspicious to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Explaining the support of outsiders to TPLF, Freeman said that there was a plane traveling into Tigray which was not authorized by Ethiopian airspace.<\/p>\n<p>The plane transporting weapons to the terrorist TPLF is the property of Ethiopia\u2019s historical enemies and was shot down by the heroic Air Force for violating the country\u2019s air space.<\/p>\n<p>For Freeman, this clearly indicates that there is a desire of outside forces encouraging TPLF to continue the conflict intended to weaken the central government of Ethiopia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI do know that you wouldn\u2019t have a resumption of armed conflict unless the TPLF believes and has substantial basis for this belief that they would get support from their actions. I don\u2019t believe they would take this kind of aggressive action which will be defeated unless they had a strong indication of support from outside Ethiopia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The motives are essentially in the long term making sure that Ethiopia is weakened and destabilized by ethnicity, the analyst underscored.<\/p>\n<p>The destabilization efforts against Ethiopia have a geopolitical aim and there are forces that want a government they can manipulate and take orders from. \u201cThey don\u2019t believe that Ethiopia should be one united nation, and they support ethnicity and the activities either directly or indirectly of the TPLF to launch and continue its war to weaken the Government of Ethiopia,\u201d Freeman noted.The analyst also called on the international community and nation states of the world to come out and call for the disarming of the TPLF.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe larger question is why the TPLF is still armed. This is a dangerous situation and unacceptable to any nation state for allowing a rebel group like TPLF to attack the national government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He insisted that nations of the world should come in and support the elected government of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed by saying, \u201cwe will not tolerate armed rebel groups attacking an elected government!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ethiopia\">Ethiopia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ethiopia.
