|

response to a commentary by a writer whose name this newspaper withheld upon
request, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) posted, last week, on its
website (www.mfa.gov.et), the following response. It is a rebuttal, point by

"Through
the EPRDF, the existence of the Derg Regime can still be seen" |
|
Andualem Arage, general secretary of the Unity
for Democracy and Justice Party (UDJP), said when asked if there
was anything he wanted to add at the end of his interview, which
appeared in the Amharic weekly, Addis Werre, on June 8, 2010. He
mentioned the nearly total victory of the incumbent in a country
touted to be democratic and generalised on how similar the
Ethiopian Peoples’ Revolutionary Democratic Front (EPRDF) is to
the Derg Regime. |
