“የአብሮነት-ኢትዮዽያ”ን የመመስረት ሂደት በተመለከተ የተሰጠ መግለጫ:-
በአሁኑ ወቅት ሀገራችን ኢትዮዽያ የምትገኘው ህልውናዋን በሚፈታተን ከፍተኛ የእርስ-በርስ ጦርነትና የኢኮኖሚ ቀውስ
ውስጥ ነው። በአንድ በኩል የወቅቱ የብልፅግና አገዛዝ የፖለቲካ ችግሮችን በኃይል አማራጭ ብቻ ለመፍታት ካለው ፍላጐት
በመነጨ ሀገሪቱ ወደ ለየለት የእርስ-በርስ ጦርነት እንድትገባና ከፍተኛ የህልውና አደጋ ውስጥ እንድትወድቅ አድርጓታል።
በሌላ በኩል ደግሞ ከአገዛዙ በተፃራሪ የቆሙት ተቀዋሚ ኃይሎች አገዛዙን በብቃት ታግለው ማሸነፍና ዘላቂ ለውጥ ማምጣት
በሚችሉበት የትብብርና የጥንካሬ ደረጃ ላይ አይደሉም። ከእነዚህ የሁለት ወገን ድክመቶች ቢያንስ የአንዱ ድክመት ተገቢ
መፍትሔ ካላገኘ፣ በተለይም ተቃዋሚ ኃይሎች ብሄር-ተሻጋሪ የሆነ የጋራ ትብብር ፈጥረው አገዛዙን መታገልና ማሸነፍ ካልቻሉ
በስተቀር ሀገሪቱ ህልውናዋን አስጠብቃ የመቀጠል እድሏ እጅግ ጠባብ ይሆናል።
ይህንን መሰረታዊ ክፍተት የተገነዘብንና በውጭ ሀገራት የምንኖር ጥቂት ኢትዮዽያውያን ጊዜያዊ አስተባባሪ ኮሚቴ በማቋቋም
አንድ ለትርፍ የማይሰራና “የአብሮነት-ኢትዮዽያ” የተሰኘ ተፅዕኖ ፈጣሪ ተቋም /Pressure Group/ በማቋቋም ሰላማዊ ትግሉን
በተለየ መንገድ አጠናክረን ለመቀጠል ጥረት በማድረግ ላይ እንገኛለን።
“የአብሮነት-ኢትዮዽያ” በአሜሪካን ሀገር ህግ መሰረት ተመስርቶና ተመዝግቦ የሚሰራ፣ ለፖለቲካ ስልጣን የማይወዳደር፣ ነገር
ግን ለፖለቲካ ጉዳዮች ልዩ ትኩረት የሚሰጥና ተጨባጭ የፖለቲካ ለውጥ በኢትዮዽያ ለማምጣት የሚሰራ ተጽእኖ ፈጣሪ
ድርጅት እንዲሆን ታስቦ በመቋቋም ሂደት ላይ ይገኛል።
የአብሮነት-ኢትዮዽያ ዋና ዓላማ በሀገራዊ የፖለቲካ ጉዳይ ላይ ቀጥተኛ ተሳትፎ የማድረግ ፍላጐት ያላቸው ዜጐችና ትውልደ-
ኢትዮዽያውያን የሆኑ ግለሰቦች የብሄር፣ የኃይማኖት እና የርዕዮተ-ዓለም ልዩነት ሳይገድባቸው በሀገራዊ ጉዳዮች ዙሪያ
እየተገናኙ የሚወያዩበትንና የሚደራደሩበትን ነፃ መድረክ መፍጠር፤ የጋራ የዲፕሎማሲ እና የተቃውሞ ትግል ለማካሄድ
የሚያስችላቸውን ትብብር እንዲፈጥሩ ማገዝ፣ በጦርነት ተፋላሚ የሆኑ የፖለቲካ ኃይሎች የፖለቲካ ቅራኔወቻቸውን
በውይይትና በድርድር መፍታት የሚችሉበትን ሁኔታ ማመቻቸት፣ በአጠቃላይም የኢትዮዽያ ህዝብ ትግል ተጠናክሮ ሀገሪቱን
ከገጠማት የህልውና አደጋ ለመታደግና ዘላቂ ለውጥ ለማምጣት እንዲችል የበኩሉን ትግል ማድረግ ነው።
የምንገኝበት ወቅት እጅግ አሳሳቢ የሆነና ኢትዮዽያውያን ከመቸውም ጊዜ በላይ የብሄር፣ የኃይማኖት እና የርዕዮተ-ዓለም
ልዩነቶቻችንን ለጊዜው ወደ ጐን በማስቀመጥ በጋራ የህልውና ጉዳዮቻችን ዙሪያ ተባብረን በመቆም ሀገሪቱን ከተጋረጠባት
የመበታተን አደጋ ማዳን የሚጠበቅብን ወቅት ነው።
በእርግጥም ሀገሪቱ በተጨባጭ ከተጋረጠባት የህልውና ጥፋት መዳን
ካለባት ኢትዮዽያዊያን በመካከላችን ያሉ ማናቸውንም ዓይነት ልዩነቶችና ቅራኔዎች በግጭትና በጦርነት ሳይሆን በውይይትና
በድርድር ለመፍታት ቁርጠኛ አቋም መውሰድ የምርጫ ጉዳይ ሳይሆን ግዴታችን ነው። ለጊዜው በሀገር ደረጃ ይህንን ማድረግ
ቢሳነንም እንኳን የወቅቱን ትግል በአሸናፊነት መወጣት እንዲቻል ቢያንስ በተቃዋሚ ጐራ ደረጃ የትብብርን ጉዳይ በብቃት
ልናሳካው ይገባል። ይህን ማድረግ ካልቻልን ግን በወቅቱ ትግል ተሸናፊ መሆናችንም ሆነ የሀገራችን እየተላለቁ የመፈራረስ
አደጋ አይቀሬ ይሆናል።
ስለሆነም ከፍ ሲል የተጠቀሰውን የአብሮነት-ኢትዮዽያን ዓላማዎች የምትደግፉና በሚቋቋመው ተቋም ዙሪያ የተግባር ተሳትፎ
ለማድረግ ፍላጐት ያላችሁ በሀገር ውስጥና በውጭ ሀገራት የምትኖሩ ኢትዮዽያዊያን ከዛሬ ጀምሮ በዚህ ደብዳቤ ግርጌ ላይ
በሚገኘው የኢ-ሜይል አድራሻ ከጊዜያዊ አስተባባሪ ኮሚቴአችን ጋር ግንኙነት እንድትፈጥሩ የአክብሮት ጥሪያችንን
እናቀርባለን። ለተቋሙ ምስረታ የህግ እና የመረጃ ቴክኖሎጂ እገዛም ስለሚያስፈልገን በዚህ ረገድ ሞያተኛ የሆናችሁ
ግለሰቦችም ትብብራችሁ እንደሚያስፈልገን በዚህ አጋጣሚ እንገልፃለን።
ኢትዮዽያውያን በአንድነት ከቆምን ሀገራችንን ከመበታተን ለመታደግና የወደፊት እድሏን የተሳካ ለማድረግ ሊሳነን አይችልምና
በፍጥነት ተባብረን ልንቆም ይገባል እንላለን። ለተሻለ ግንዛቤ ይረዳ ዘንድም “የአብሮነት-ኢትዮዽያን” የፕሮጀክት ንድፈ-ሀሳብ
ረቂቅ ሰነድ ከዚህ ደብዳቤ ጋር ተያይዞ ቀርቧል።
የአብሮነት-ኢትዮዽያ ዓላማ እንዲሳካ ለምታደርጉት ትብብር ሁሉ በቅድሚያ እያመሰገንን በጋራ ቆመን ከታገልን ያሰብነው
ግብ ላይ በእርግጠኛነት እንደምንደርስ ያለንን ተስፋና ምኞት በአክብሮት እንገልፃለን።

Press Release
Announcing the Formation Process of “Ye-abronet-Ethiopia”
We Unite; We Win!
Ethiopia is currently experiencing a deepening crisis marked by civil conflict and
the threat of economic collapse. The authoritarian nature of the current
government, along with its aggressive posture, has undermined law and order,
placing the nation’s stability and cohesion at significant risk. Although opposition
groups are working to bring about change, they remain fragmented and lack the
capacity to effectively challenge the regime. Without meaningful reform and greater
unity among opposition forces, Ethiopia faces the danger of further deterioration
and potential disintegration.
In recognition of this urgent situation and the limitations of existing political
opposition, a group of concerned Ethiopians has formed a temporary committee
to initiate a new approach to peaceful political advocacy.
Therefore, we are pleased to announce the launch of the formation process for “Ye-
abronet-Ethiopia”, a nonprofit civic organization. This initiative is not a political
party and will not seek electoral office. Rather, it will serve as a pressure group
focused on driving peaceful, meaningful political change in Ethiopia through civic
engagement.
The mission of Ye-abronet-Ethiopia is to build a dynamic platform that fosters
dialogue, negotiation, and nonviolent protest. It will promote collaboration among
opposition forces based on shared national interests and encourage conflict
resolution through inclusive and constructive round-table discussions. In doing
so, the organization seeks to strengthen the peaceful struggle, safeguard
Ethiopia’s existence, and help lay the foundation for a more equitable and
prosperous future.
In this defining moment, it is imperative that all Ethiopians, both within the country
and in the diaspora, regardless of ethnicity, religion, or ideology come together to
prevent further fragmentation. Ye-abronet-Ethiopia calls upon all who share this
vision and willing to work with us. We are particularly seeking the support of
individuals with expertise in legal and information technology fields to assist with
3the development and operation of the organization. Interested parties are invited
to reach out using the contact information provided below.
A draft project proposal outlining the goals and framework of Ye-abronet-Ethiopia
is attached for your review.
Thank you for your attention and commitment. We look forward to working together
to create a brighter future for Ethiopia and its people.
Sincerely,
Lidetu Ayalew
Chairperson, Coordinating Committee for the Establishment of Ye-abronet-
Ethiopia

4Project Proposal /Draft/:
For the Establishment of “Ye-abronet-Ethiopia”
May 3, 2025:
Executive Summary:
“Ye-Abronet-Ethiopia” is a newly established bipartisan, non-governmental, and non-
profit organization, registered as a 501(c)(4). It is committed to strengthening political
engagement, promoting social justice, advancing human rights, and upholding
democratic values in Ethiopia. Through a robust platform for dialogue, advocacy, and
peaceful resistance, the organization aims to foster a more just, inclusive, and prosperous
Ethiopia for all its citizens.
Ethiopia is currently facing a profound crisis, characterized by civil war and the looming
threat of economic collapse. The government’s failure to uphold law and order has placed
the country’s stability in jeopardy. Meanwhile, opposition groups remain in a vulnerable
position, unable to effectively challenge the authoritarian regime or drive significant
change. If these issues are not addressed, particularly if opposition forces aren’t able to
unite around their shared interests, Ethiopia risks complete collapse and disintegration.
In light of the ongoing political oppression and human rights violations in Ethiopia, Ye-
abronet-Ethiopia seeks to create a robust platform for dialogue, consultation, peaceful
protest and debate on political, developmental, and humanitarian issues impacting
Ethiopia and its citizens.
With a clear focus on inclusivity, peaceful resistance, and solidarity, the primary objective
of Ye-abronet-Ethiopia aims to promote democratic ideals, foster political participation,
and provide effective channels for peaceful advocacy through discussions, negotiations,
demonstrations, and collaboration with both local and international partners.
Organizational Structure
Ye-abronet-Ethiopia will operate in full compliance with U.S. law and will be governed by
a board of directors responsible for overseeing the organization’s strategic direction,
operations, and ensuring the proper allocation of resources. The organization will have
branch offices and support groups in Ethiopia, as well as in various regions around the
world.
It is important to note that Ye-abronet-Ethiopia is not a political party and does not seek
to run for political office. Rather, it is a nonprofit pressure group dedicated to fostering

disintegration of the country.

inclusivity, and solidarity, we are confident that we can play a vital role in shaping a
brighter, more democratic future for Ethiopia and its citizens. This is not only a call for
