One year into Ethiopia’s internal war in Tigray region, there are no signs of a ceasefire.
And sources privy to the ongoing efforts to end the war say the crisis is prolonged due to mistrust between the federal government in Addis Ababa and the leadership of the TPLF, a divided international community as well as who actually should be at the table to negotiate a peace deal.
