Ethiopia is a US ally, and the US diplomatic line until now has been to essentially blame the Tigrayan people for their own fucking genocide @nytimes/1365451354072834050
Sure, now, after hundreds of thousands of people have died, the US is internally admitting ethnic cleansing, but I don't have the memory of a goldfish. I remember which side the US and outlets like Bloomberg and NYT were on in November
And I know for a fact a big reason for the US's stance is definitely shaped by the fact that an Ethiopia controlled entirely by Abiy Ahmed's government is much more profitable to foreign investment than a government controlled by the left nationalist TPLF
