Ana Gomes and colleagues to meet with Berhanu Nega

June 18th, 2008 |  |  11 Comments

STRASBOURG, France — Ana Gomes, Member of the Socialist Group in the European Parliament, invites her colleagues to a meeting with Dr. Berhanu Nega, Mayor-elect of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and former senior leader CUD, who was released from prison one year ago.

The meeting, aiming at discussing the current political and human rights situation in Ethiopia, will take place on 25 June, at 18.30, in room ASP 5G 305.

Berhanu Nega was a founding member of the Coalition for Unity and Democracy (CUD). Dr. Nega played an important role in the 2005 Ethiopian general elections. At the time, he was elected as mayor of Addis Ababa but could not serve since he was arrested during the political persecution that followed the elections.

Dr. Berhanu Nega is currently one of the leaders of Ginbot 7 Movement for Justice, Democracy and Freedom.

    Dr Berhanu is probably one of the few Ethiopian leaders who fully understand the current predicament the country is in and how to get out of it. I hope he and his friends are succesful in what they are doing. Of course, they have our full support.

    Dr Birhanu is one of the few who understands the mind of evil Meles. This is a deadly weapon against the enemy.

    Nice Move Doctor. If we want the support of all peace, freedom and democracy lovers in the west, somebody should convince them that we still have people who are ready to do what ever it takes. People who can lead the country in a better direction. Even if peace and frredom loving powers in the west try to help us in the struggle to throw down this shameless gov’t, they are not convinced we, Ethiopians, have wise and courageous people to lead and keep the country in that most volatile region of the world. Let show them that we are behind Dr.Birhanu and company.

    Go get them Ginbot 7.
