 And now to Ethiopia, where the spokesperson for the country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has criticized the United States decision to impose restrictions on economic and security assistance over the conflict in the Tigray region. Dina Moffat says sanctions are not necessary for the U.S. to send its message across the country and that it is Ethiopia that has to deal with its internal affairs. The tensions between Ethiopia and the United States deal at an all-time high after Washington imposed restrictions due to the conflict in the Tigray region, which has killed thousands in more than two million flea areas. The UN said this week that 91 percent of the people in Tigray need emergency fruit aid.
