Ethiopia’s Finance Minister Eyob Tekalign has called for an end to the ongoing conflict in the northern region of Tigray.
In a statement released on Thursday, Mr Eyob said that collective effort must be made to resolve the nearly year-long Tigray conflict, which has spread to the neighbouring Amhara and Afar regions.
