Prof. Berhanu Nega
ESAT News (February 13, 2017)
Prof. Berhanu Nega, Chairman of the Patriotic Ginbot 7, an armed resistance group fighting the Ethiopian regime, says the uprising and popular resistance seen in Ethiopia over the last year have proven right the front’s strategy of employing all kinds of struggle against the authoritarian regime.
Speaking to his supporters worldwide via a video conference from his base in Eritrea, the Professor, who left his research and teaching position at Bucknell University to lead the armed struggle, said his front is fighting not to take political power but to contribute to the establishment of a truly democratic system in Ethiopia.
Prof. Nega said there has been a consensus among the people of Ethiopia that TPLF is the only obstacle to the formation of a democratic system in the country and that the people have already launched an all out struggle forcing the regime to declare a state of emergency.
He said PG7 has played a role in all popular uprisings in the country and is working closely with resistance groups fighting the regime in all corners of the country.
The chairman also said his front is willing to work with any political or armed group as long as they respect and defend the sovereignty of Ethiopia.
Supporters of PG7 in 46 cities worldwide held a two day fundraising drive over the weekend.
