Since February 7, the federal government has been discussing in Addis Ababa with the authorities of Tigray. Tigray, this province in the north of the country, at war against the central state, from 2020 to 2022.

The parties must review the application of the Pretoria peace agreement signed at the end of 2022, and whose application is far from complete. More than a million displaced people and refugees have still not returned home, while famine affects the province. The talks are due to last until March 13.
