Addis Ababa, Apr 30 (Prensa Latina) President of the Ethiopian Reconciliation Commission, Berhaneyesus Demerew Souraphiel, said on Tuesday that in the next three years the organization will work to identify the roots of conflicts and project solutions.
We must focus on addressing all differences from the bottom up, to attempt to resolve them through negotiation and prevent them from hindering the country’s development, he said during a press conference presenting the three-year plan of the institution.
We are ready, he stated, to fulfill the responsibility the people and government entrusted to us, to avert the feelings of revenge and hatred accumulated in recent years as a result of various social and political antagonisms.
‘If we do not remove causes of discrepancies and disagreements of all kinds, then we cannot find sustainable solutions based on concrete evidence to move us forward as a nation’, said Souraphiel, Cardinal Presbyter of San Roman Martyr, Archbishop of Addis Ababa and Primate of the Ethiopian Catholic Church.
The Commission was set up last December to maintain peace, ensure justice, foster unity and manage consensus among Ethiopia’s main political, ethnic, social and religious actors.
