Given the duration of the agreement, no considerable progress has been made except the silencing of the guns. All IDPs have not been able to return to their homes, and are still living in makeshift shelters, leaky tents and in the open due to the continuing occupation of the Tigrayan territory by the Amhara forces and the Eritrean army. The IDPs are dying everyday due to lack of medication, clean drinking water and malnutrition. The Eritrean troops and the Amhara forces are still in Tigray continuing their gross human rights violations- killing and abducting civilians, raping women, and girls, and resettling Amharas to alter the demography of the occupied districts. Basic services are either meager or nonexistent in many parts of Tigray, and hundreds of thousands of school-aged children are out of school and health services are minimal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, regarding transitional justice, we must emphasize that accountability cannot be achieved through domestic processes, because the perpetrator cannot be at same time the investigator, the prosecutor, and the judge. We cannot rely solely on Ethiopian authorities to control the transitional justice, and we strongly believe that an independent, international body is essential for ensuring accountability and fostering genuine reconciliation. We urge the U.S. Department of State to revisit its statement and take immediate actions to ensure the full implementation of C\u041e\u041d\u0410.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you for your most attention to the matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Most Sincerely<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Union of Tigrayans in North America (UTNA),<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>202-321-7770 |
