They could work towards peace, work towards stopping violence\u2014 that means a lot for the Ethiopians. The economy has been affected badly by this conflict, and a lot of people have been suffering. So in that sense, it should mean a lot for Ethiopia and its people and for Africa as well. Ethiopia is the seat of the African Union Headquarters and I think it should be an example to the rest of the continent\u2014there should be peace and there should be prosperity in Ethiopia so that we can follow that example, especially since it (Ethiopia) is the AU Headquarters,\u201d Carien said.<\/p>\n<p>Carien believes that the partners who observed the peace process have also played an important role in the Africa-led peace agreement to guide other African countries with the slogan: \u201cAfrican solutions to African problems\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The journalist described the AU-led peace agreement as example: \u201cIt was a good example of not using the slogan to deny our problems, but to actually help solve them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The AU has the capability, tools and skills, to resolve conflicts in Africa, which could have been resolved before they caused sufferings, she pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>The journalist also called on journalists to play their constructive role during the implementation of the agreement.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Somalia\u2019s Federalism and Security Analysis Institute Chairman, Sonkor Geyre told ENA that implementing the agreement is crucial to stabilize Ethiopia and the Horn of Africa region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very glad that Ethiopia, as our immediate neighbor, found a way to live in peace within itself. So, we can move as the Horn of Africa, to development and integration between the Horn of African states.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Commending Ethiopia for its commitment to resolving the conflict under African leadership, Sonkor Geyre praised the African Union and those who contributed to the peace agreement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe that that document [agreement] is vital for Ethiopia and the region in general, \u201che said, adding that the region in the Horn of Africa would move towards stability, development, and integration.<\/p>\n<p>It is to be recalled that the Ethiopian National Defense Force (ENDF) Chief of staff and TPLF commander on Saturday agreed on the implementation of the agreement signed in Pretoria, South Africa on 2 November, 2022.<\/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.
