In my opinion, true reconciliation will come from within Ethiopia. We have social capital, faith-based institutions, and we have relationships.
One thing I mentioned at the beginning is that the ethnic-based policy we have is what is dividing us. We are all intermarried. I have relationships in families within the Tigray community. I have relationships with other communities as well.
We all want to have peace. We all want to have a quick resolution. We don't want any mother to cry anymore. We don't want any children to be taken to war. That's what we are seeing. The TPLF has been taking over young people and is actually forcing families to give up their children to fight. We don't want that to happen anymore. I think the solution will come from within.
What I would recommend is to have a discussion, maybe national reconciliation.... Canada can also help in facilitating this kind of discussion. I'm sure a solution will come from within, not from outside. That's my opinion.
