Oromo-Amhara Conflicts Could Mar Ethiopia, Tigray Peace Plan

A newly flared conflict between Ethiopia's Oromo and Amhara ethnic groups could disrupt security situation in the country after the Tigray peace agreement, writes Martina Schwikowski for Deutsche Welle.

The newly brokered peace deal between Ethiopia and Tigray is holding but the multiethnic state, battered by two years of civil war, is extremely fragile.

In another development, the Ethiopian government is asking the United States to support its bid to terminate the mandate of the International Commission of Human Rights Experts on Ethiopia, Addis Standard reports.
