China’s Great Leap Forward caused a dramatic spike in child deaths— Child mortality rates in China have fallen from more than 20% in 1950 to less than 1% today. But this steady progress was interrupted in the late 1950s during the “Great Leap Forward”. This was China’s national plan to industrialize rapidly, but it resulted in widespread famine and economic turmoil. As the chart shows, child mortality rates spiked in China over this period, with up to one in three children dying before reaching the age of five. This change was so dramatic that it is also clearly visible in the global trend. This data comes from the UN’s World Population Prospects.

Insularity, arrogance, and playing victim are the most defining characteristics of the militarist TPLF and its cohorts. The very same ethnocratic clique that murdered millions of Ethiopians in its brutal 27 years of misrule, that conducted systematic human rights violations bordering ethnic cleansing in Somali Region, and that ransacked and raped Amhara civilians 5 years ago, often talk about “Tigray genocide”, without any shame or regret. The day justice is finally served, the worst offenders of human rights will be those who, today, are pointing fingers at others.
