Ethiopian Review

The UEDF executive committee decided yesterday in a 10 to 3 vote not to enter parliament, but the chairman, Dr Beyene Petros, said he will not abide by the decision and will enter parliament on his own.

The executive committee also decided to discontinue negotiation with the Meles regime until Meles is willing to discuss the primary concerns of the opposition, including contested ballots.

As the next course of action, the executive committee decided to call a general strike next week jointly with the CUD.

The parliament will convene Sunday, Oct 9.
