World Health Organization director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus says racism is preventing crimes committed against war-torn populations from receiving much public attention amid the ongoing health crisis in Tigray Ethiopia. The 57-year-old official questioned why the “world’s biggest humanitarian disaster” was not receiving the same attention as the Russia-Ukraine conflict and said 6 million people in the region could not access basic service in the past 21 months. Ghebreyesus said the following in a virtual media briefing on Wednesday, August 17: “I have not heard any head of state from the developed world in recent months discussing the situation in Tigray. Anywhere. Why? People’s skin color may be the reason. Tedros, an Ethiopian, has held the positions of health and foreign minister for his country. Michael Ryan, Executive Director of the WHO Health Emergency Programme, also expressed concern about the health issue in the face of famine and drought in the area at the same meeting. Added to him: No one appears to be concerned about what is happening in the Horn of Africa. The Internal Displacement Monitoring Center reports that thousands of people have died during the war between Ethiopian and Tigrayan forces and thousands more are experiencing food shortages. Tigray Situation Analysis The crisis in Tigray began in 2018, when Abiy Ahmed was elected Prime Minister of Ethiopia, ousting regional parties that had previously emerged, including the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF). Relations between the Ethiopian government and the TPLF have been strained as a result of this move, especially since the regional party has scheduled the September 2020 election during the coronavirus outbreak. The TPLF stopped recognizing the national administration and vice versa as a result of the Ethiopian government’s annulment of the Tigray regional elections. In November 2020, when the TPLF stormed the Mek’ele headquarters of the Ethiopian military, the situation turned violent. As a result, Tigray has seen human rights violations such as mass killings, looting, random shootings of individuals, and loss of humanitarian aid. In addition to the two warring sides, Eritrea, located in the northernmost part of the conflict zone, is also to blame for the harsh environment in the area. The country’s borders have been a point of contention with its neighbors since its independence in 1993. The United Nations says civilians have suffered as a result of the conflict between the three sides and accuses them of being responsible for serious shortages. of food and humanitarian aid. The first aid was brought by road instead of by air after the humanitarian truce agreement was made between the Ethiopian government and the other parties due to the fact that the fighters blocked the roads on all sides. Additionally, the region has experienced fuel shortages as a result of the Ethiopian government’s restrictions on the transfer of fuel to the troubled area, which has also disrupted aid delivery. With nearly 5.1 million people fleeing the troubled region last year, the crisis has set a new record for the number of people displaced in a single year. In previous speeches, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has made references to crimes committed by residents of combat zones. When the WHO director criticized the country’s crisis in 2022, the Ethiopian government wrote to the organization to complain about Tedros’ “misconduct”. They asserted that Tedros is a member of the TPLF and is using his position as leader “to pursue his political goals at the expense of Ethiopia.” At the most recent summit, the WHO requested $123.7 million to address health problems caused by increased malnutrition in the region, which is home to more than 200 million people.
