ኤርትራንስ እሺ፣ እንዴት ያገር ውስጥ ሃይሎችን ከትግራይ (አገራቸው) ውጡ ይላሉ? የውስጥ ጉዳያችን አይደለምን? ወይስ አሜሪካ ትግራይን እንደ አገር ማየት ጀመረ?

This is very critical question and I appreciate they raising the issue. But I wish they bring in diverse views to debate the issue instead of same minded hosts building one same view. However, I find the question very relevant to see what the future holds for the region.

May be, we diverse forumers can add and enrich the debate?

I don't know if Abiy's played the Amhara Region or they were all to blame for being gullible and believing that just because their soldiers are there, they can claim the land. Possession does not always imply ownership. The Defence Minister was clear from week 1 that the war was not about changing regional boundaries. Abiy could have shown leadership by backing the Defence Minister on the first week.

He has told the Tigray transitional government they will administer all areas of Tigray but I guess he was waiting until the end of the election to deny National Movement of Amhara winning the region. But now he is in dilemma as the international community will not give him months.
