Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed has announced that neighboring Eritrea would pull its troops out of the conflict-ridden Tigray region.
Abiy’s statement on Friday followed a visit to Asmara, the capital of Eritrea. Troops from both the Ethiopian and Eritrean military forces have been accused of carrying out abuses against the civilian population in the border region.
In his statement published on Twitter, Abiy said that following his discussions on Friday with Eritrean President Isaias Afwerki, “the government of Eritrea has agreed to withdraw its forces out of the Ethiopian border.”
