TPLF Demands PM Abiy Ahmed Must Resign before Peace Talks: ICGBy Staff ReporterOctober 30, 2020 (Ezega.com) -- The International Crisis Group (ICG) said the Tigray People Liberation Front (TPLF) has set the resignation of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed as a precondition for a peace talks to kick off with the federal government. In a report entitled ‘Streeing Ethiopia’s Tigray Crisis Away from Conflict’, ICG said the transitional government should assume power and Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed must go before negotiations begin between the two warring forces. The worsening dispute is only one crisis among many rocking Ethiopia’s troubled transition,” ICG said in a report. The TPLF sees things differently, accusing Abiy of working to weaken the region and monopolise power. The ruling Prosperity Party claims TPLF orchestrated recent attacks on ethnic Amhara civilians in Metekel Zone in westerly Benishangul-Gumuz region that left dozens dead.
