Global Oromo Campaign: NATIONAL DIALOGUE

The exclusionary national dialogue is a non-starter. We reject a unilaterally established national dialogue commission. We demand the inclusion of all Oromo political actors into the national dialogue. To kickstart dialogue guns must be silenced and Eritrean forces as well as Amhara militias, must withdraw from Oromia.

Conflict continues due to the presence & belligerent stance of the Eritrean army and Amhara militants. Both have invaded Oromia and are terrorizing Oromo civilians. No Peace, No national dialogue! @SecBlinken @antonioguterres @JosepBorrellF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

A sham national dialogue is an invitation to further death, destruction, and instability for the Horn of Africa. A genuine dialogue cannot unfold while armed conflicts are ongoing in Oromia. @SecBlinken @antonioguterres @EUAmbUS @JosepBorrellF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

Eritrean troops are engaged in rape, looting and massacre of the Oromo people in Oromia and destabilizing the region. The Int’l Cmty. must not allow Isaias Afewerki’s army to continue massacring Oromia. @SecBlinken @antonioguterres @JosepBorrellF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

The international community must reject Isaias’s destabilizing role in the HOA. No Peace, No national dialogue. @SecBlinken @antonioguterres @EUAmbUS @UNAmbUS @USUN @JosepBorrellF @UNGeneva @NATO #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

Dawud Ibsa, the Chairman of OLF, represents millions of Oromos and a national dialogue that excludes him and his party cannot be legitimate. @SecBlinken @antonioguterres @EUAmbUS @UNAmbUS @USUN @JosepBorrellF @UNGeneva @NATO #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

A national dialogue inclusive of all Oromo parties in the presence of a credible mediator group is the only way to address the questions of nations and nationalities to stop the ongoing civil war. @SecBlinken @UNAmbUS @USUN @JosepBorrellF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

The PP of Abiy Ahmed tries to buy time & reclaim credibility by conducting a sham “national dialogue” that it coordinates & is the sole decision maker just like the sham election. @SecBlinken @antonioguterres @EUAmbUS @UNAmbUS @USUN #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet
A true national dialogue is inclusive of all major opposition parties including armed & unarmed. A national dialogue that does not include the OLF, OLA, & OFC does not represent over 60 million people. @SecBlinken @antonioguterres #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

The Eritrean & Amhara armies must immediately leave Oromia. The war in Oromia must stop! No Peace, No National Dialogue. @SecBlinken @antonioguterres @EUAmbUS @UNAmbUS @USUN @JosepBorrellF @UNGeneva @NATO #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

This is Abdata Bacha a 16-year-old, 8th grader murdered by the Prosperity Party army in Sibu Sire, East Wallaga Oromia on January 19, 2022. No national dialogue until the killing is stopped https://twitter.com/QubeeMN/status/1486333099587874817 @EUAmbUS #NoPeaceNoDialogue… Click To Tweet

The ETH national dialogue won't succeed if not facilitated & mediated by the UN, US, & EU. PP must remove alien forces from Oromia & release all Oromo political prisoners b4 national dialogue. @antonioguterres @EUAmbUS @JosepBorrellF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

The civil war that started in Oromia as a command post 3yrs ago and expanded to Tigray. Authentic national dialogue cannot be held while there's active conflict & military rule. @SecBlinken @HouseForeign @ChrisCoons @AsstSecStateAF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

A national dialogue commission set up under the auspices of a single party dominated parliament cannot be considered neutral. We demand a credible, transparent & genuinely inclusive national dialogue. @JosepBorrellF @HouseForeign @ChrisCoons #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

The civil war has caused a massive humanitarian catastrophe. We demand unconditional and unimpeded provision of humanitarian assistance, including food + medicine, to all communities affected by conflict before dialogue. @JosepBorrellF @ChrisCoons #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

We demand the silencing of guns, the restoration of vital services & lifting of communication blockades in Oromia, so citizens can actively participate in the national dialogue. @SecBlinken @JosepBorrellF @HouseForeign @ChrisCoons #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

The gov't must restore vital services, incl. banking, telecom, & electricity in Oromia. A national dialogue process while citizens are under a communication blockade is a futile exercise. @SecBlinken @JosepBorrellF @HouseForeign @ChrisCoons #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

Ethiopia's Deputy Army Chief has stated in a TV interview this week that part 2 of the war against Tigray will begin in earnest. This is an alarming statement to come from a gov't proposing a national dialogue @JosepBorrellF @ChrisCoons #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

We demand the immediate & unconditional release of all remaining Oromo political detainees, incl. leaders of the Oromo Liberation Front & its chairman, who has been under house arrest since May ‘21.@JosepBorrellF @AsstSecStateAF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

Thousands of Oromo youth in detention centers and all others incarcerated in the ethnically-targeted crackdown under the state of emergency must be unconditionally freed before any talk of national dialogue. @ChrisCoons @AsstSecStateAF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

The government must ensure the withdrawal of all foreign forces from Ethiopia, particularly Eritrean security, military and intelligence units to create an enabling environment for internal dialogue on fundamental national matters. @ChrisCoons #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

Ethiopia’s bilateral and multilateral partners must press the government to show genuine commitment for peaceful resolution of the ongoing civil war & ending of the humanitarian siege. No peace, no national dialogue. @SecBlinken @JosepBorrellF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

Millions are affected by conflict and drought-induced starvation in Oromia, Tigray, Benishangul Gumuz, Afar, Amhara and Somali regional states must first receive lifesaving humanitarian aid and medicine before the national dialogue. @JosepBorrellF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

We request the setting up of an independent and impartial body to facilitate a credible and all-inclusive national dialogue and the International community to extend its support to such a nonpartisan body. @SecBlinken @JosepBorrellF @AsstSecStateAF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

The gov’t first proposed the national dialogue commission to be accountable to the PM. The NDC later became accountable to parliament, but Eth. legislature is dominated (96.3) by the ruling PP. The NDC can't be trusted as neutral. @AsstSecStateAF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

Waging drone attacks and massacring civilians is not conducive to a national dialogue. Stop drone attacks, remove Eritrean troops and Amhara militias from Oromia, & release all Oromo political prisoners. @SecBlinken @antonioguterres #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

A precursor to a meaningful national dialogue is releasing all Oromo political prisoners. There is no National Dialogue while tens of thousands of Oromos and their political leaders are in jail. @antonioguterres @EUAmbUS @UNAmbUS @USUN @UNGeneva @NATO #NoPeaceNoDialogue… Click To Tweet

A national dialogue that excludes independent Oromo political parties -the OLF, the OFC and the OLA is not a genuine dialogue, and the Oromo people reject it. @SecBlinken @antonioguterres @EUAmbUS @UNAmbUS @JosepBorrellF @UNGeneva @NATO #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

Any attempt by the Ethiopian gov't to control the national dialogue process & its outcomes will take the country on a path to further violence & destruction. @JosepBorrellF @HouseForeign @ChrisCoons @AsstSecStateAF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

For a meaningful national dialogue to take place, Eritrean troops and Amhara militias must leave Oromia and stop all hostilities. @SecBlinken @antonioguterres @EUAmbUS @UNAmbUS @USUN @JosepBorrellF @UNGeneva @NATO #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

The PM initiated the National Dialogue process with the aim of amending the constitution & reconstituting the federal arrangement in a manner that serves his personal political vision to appease the IC. @JosepBorrellF @AsstSecStateAF #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

60+ worldwide Oromo civic orgs urge the gov't & all stakeholders, as well as the Intl. Cmty. UN, US, UAE, China & Iran to play a role in the cessation of hostilities & a ceasefire before the commencement of an all-inclusive national dialogue. #NoPeaceNoDialogue… Click To Tweet

The gov’t has to open up the political space in Oromia and beyond in order to accommodate free media, grassroots discussions and full citizen engagement in order to build confidence and create a conducive environment for a genuine process. #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

We reiterate our call for broader and proactive consultation with all national dialogue stakeholders on the venue, timetable, convener, pace, conduct, coverage and implementation of agreements reached among parties to the deliberations. #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

A national dialogue process built on flawed foundations cannot earn the public's trust and public buy-in is crucial to ensure progress and deliver a positive outcome. Set up a genuinely independent body to facilitate the dialogue. @HouseForeign #NoPeaceNoDialogue #OromoVoice Click To Tweet

64 Oromo Civic, Professional, Advocacy, Human Rights, & Community organizations worldwide have issued an Oromo consensus statement calling for an all-inclusive national dialogue in Ethiopia. @AsstSecStateAF #NoPeaceNoDialogue Click To Tweet
