YEMEN — #Ethiopia’s migrant crisis is driven by survival and opportunity for betrer life. Persistent hunger, unemployment, and instability push hundreds of thousands of young Ethiopians to leave the country each year. Many end up on the eastern migration route through #Djibouti and #Yemen toward #SaudiArabia, where they face trafficking, extortion, abuse, and, in many cases, conditions that amount to forced labor and modern slavery.
The people of Ethiopia are an extraordinary and remarkable people. Other than the Creator, who can truly know and assess our people in their entirety? Through this year’s election, Ethiopians have once again shown the world that they are a people with a rich culture, deep patriotism, and the ability to safeguard the common good. On this historic day: * Citizens who were not intimidated by the cold and darkness of the night, * Who were not deterred by the midday sun or sudden rain, * Whom weddings, funerals, childbirth, and other social obligations did not prevent from participating, * Who were not wearied by long lines, * Whose physical disabilities did not stop them from casting their vote, * Those whose illness and old age did not prevent from witnessing the hope of their country, * Who were not exhausted by carrying their infant children; the future inheritors of the nation, * And above all, whom the shouting and threats of enemies could not intimidate or stop; The perseverance you demonstrated amid many challenges and hardships, against all odds, was a contribution made for democracy and for the very survival of the nation. For this, you deserve heartfelt gratitude. It is a privilege to serve such a people. Therefore, may those who have been elected honor the trust placed in them and serve this people, with integrity and sincerity! A people who have paid a great price for the democratic system. May you be worthy of that responsibility.
