PRESS RELEASE
 
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
Oromo call for Justice in Ethiopia and the Bringing To Account of Prime
Minister Meles Zenawi
 
Brussels, 27 April 2009 - Democracy, justice and pluralism remained
illusory in Ethiopia. The Ethiopian Government, led by the Tigrayan
People's Liberation Front (TPLF) continues to intimidate opposition
parties and civil society whilst muzzling a mass media that as a result
is neither free nor fair. Heavy-handed state responses to legitimate
protests have left scores dead and many more injured - and their
families have no recourse to adequate justice.
 
To bring these abuses to the attention of the European public and
decision makers, the Oromos residing in Europe will hold a demonstration
on Friday 22 May 2009 beginning at the Schuman station from 10.00am
moving to the European Commission (Berlaymont Building), European
Parliament (Place Jean Rey), UK
Embassy and final stop will be at USA Embassy where activists will stay
until 13:00pm.
 
The demonstration will urge the European Union and advocates of justice
around the world to take note of, and act against, the atrocities being
committed against the Oromo people and other nationalities of Ethiopia.
 
Activists will also call on all nations and nationalities in Ethiopia to
stand in unity on behalf of the country's innocent and voiceless peoples
whose lives and livelihoods are being constrained by an unrepresentative
and minority government.
 
Note: There will be media opportunities during the demonstration and
activists with first-hand experience of the situation in Ethiopia will
be available for comment.
