埃塞俄比亚总理阿比任命提格雷看守政府 任期六个月、筹备期内选举 联邦军已收复首府默克莱
内罗毕——据路透社10月16日报道，埃塞俄比亚总理阿比·艾哈迈德已任命一个看守政府，以稳定北部提格雷地区，并为六个月内举行选举做准备。此前，一个叛军联盟与联邦军队之间再度爆发战斗。
报道称，提格雷人民解放阵线（提人阵）上个月向阿比政府发动攻势，重新点燃了这场冲突；2020至2022年的上一次提格雷战争曾造成数十万人死亡。新一轮冲突还导致埃塞俄比亚与厄立特里亚断绝关系：亚的斯亚贝巴指责阿斯马拉支持叛军，厄立特里亚予以否认；埃塞俄比亚政府还指责埃及与苏丹支持叛军联盟，两国均已否认。
提人阵是提格雷的执政党，在阿比2018年上台之前曾主导埃塞俄比亚政坛数十年。路透社称，自战斗爆发以来，埃塞俄比亚军方与一支亲政府民兵已取得显著推进，控制了提格雷大片地区，包括首府默克莱。阿比办公室表示，这个临时行政机构任期六个月，目标是营造稳定的政治环境，以便在六个月内举行自由、透明的选举；阿比还表示，该机构将修复受损的基础设施，并帮助流离失所者返回家园。
阿比在社交平台X上发表声明说：「为了获得他们长久以来未能实现的和平、确保自治权，并最终享受多年来遥不可及的发展成果，提格雷人民必须摆脱这个冲突循环。」提人阵发言人未立即回应路透社的置评请求。
提格雷尚未从上一次战争的人道代价中恢复，那场战争曾使数十万人陷入饥荒。据联合国难民署的数字，截至今年2月，仍有约75万提格雷人流离失所，该地区还面临与厄尔尼诺相关的干旱。路透社指出，外界担心动荡可能蔓延到埃塞俄比亚境外。（GSM 据路透社报道）
Ethiopia's Abiy Names a Caretaker Government for Tigray, to Serve Six Months and Prepare Elections; Federal Forces Have Retaken Mekelle
Nairobi — Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed has named a caretaker government to stabilise the northern Tigray region and prepare for an election within six months, after fighting erupted between a rebel alliance and federal troops, Reuters reported on October 16.
The Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) led an offensive last month against Abiy's government, reigniting a war that killed hundreds of thousands between 2020 and 2022. Renewed conflict has led to the severing of ties between Ethiopia and Eritrea: Addis Ababa accuses Asmara of backing the rebels, which Eritrea denies. Ethiopia's government has also accused Egypt and Sudan of supporting the rebel alliance; both have denied the allegations.
The TPLF, Tigray's ruling party, dominated Ethiopian politics for decades until Abiy took office in 2018. Since fighting erupted, Ethiopia's military and a pro-government militia have made significant advances and taken control of large parts of Tigray, including the regional capital, Mekelle. The temporary administration will be in office for six months, Abiy's office said, to create a stable political climate for free and transparent elections within six months. The administration will also repair damaged infrastructure and help displaced people return to their homes, he said.
"To attain the peace that has long eluded them, to secure their right to self-administration, and to finally enjoy the fruits of development — which have been out of reach for many years — the people of Tigray must break free from this cycle of conflict," Abiy said in a statement posted on X. A TPLF spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Tigray is yet to recover from the humanitarian toll of the previous war, which pushed hundreds of thousands into famine. Around 750,000 Tigrayans were still internally displaced as of February, according to the UN refugee agency, and the region faces drought linked to El Niño. There are fears that unrest could spread beyond Ethiopia's borders in the fragile Horn of Africa region. (GSM, reporting from Reuters)
