Editorial misread situation in Ethiopia’s Tigray region

Thanks for adding Ethiopian interest stories into your publications. However, your August 16, 2021 editorial titled “Regional states silence over Tigray deafening” lacks objectivity and non-partisanship.

Instead of relying on facts and consulting the Ethiopian embassy, which has an open-door policy towards the media, The Standard resorted to publishing a misleading piece. And it borders on an incendiary piece rife with misleading and fictitious claims.
