Ethiopia targets Biden with 5m 'stay out of it' letters

Supporters of Ethiopia's ruling Prosperity Party plan to send 5m letters to US President Joe Biden as part of a campaign to sway his administration's policy on the war in the northern Tigray region. Organisers of ‘The White Envelopes to Flood the White House’ campaign say the letters will be sent from now until 25 September. Alemayehu Seifu, the head of the state-linked Ethiopian Youth Empowerment, told BBC News that youths from areas affected by the Tigray war will detail their experiences and the ‘evil work’ of fighters linked to the Tigray People's Liberation Front. ‘The American Government should stop interfering in the internal affairs of our country. They should learn from Afghanistan, Pakistan and Libya,’ Alemayehu said.
