✅ To the international and diplomatic community: Are you simply waiting to see where this war leads and how many lives will be taken in this round?
❌ Are you just counting days to see what happens, much like a helpless mother who doesn’t know whether she will survive after the war?
❌ Are you merely waiting to see who wins and who loses, as if this won't cost the lives of millions of mothers, children, youth, and other vulnerable communities?
❌ So, why do we need international and continental organizations? What is the fundamental purpose of having them?
❌ What would we lose if we lost you entirely?
❌ Where and when was the last time your intervention actually stopped a war and pushed the parties toward peaceful alternatives and saved a millions of lives?
❌ Why won't you try to save us?
You hold the power to drive real change, far beyond what any ordinary youth like me can achieve alone.
🥹 Ethiopian youth do not want this war. This is not our fight, nor is it our choice at this time. We don’t want to kill one another. We are being forced into a conflict, yet we have no reason to die for it or give up our irreplaceable lives at such a young age.
❌ Do you see young men and women roaring or mongering for war like in the past? No, not this time.
❌ We urgently call on you to intervene and stop this war at any cost necessary, except at the cost of our lives.
Please help 🙌🙌🙌
