Hundreds of Ethiopians have staged a protest rally at the U.S. State Department and World Bank in Washington DC today.
The protestors appealed to the Bush Administration and the World Bank to stop financing the murderous dictatorship of Meles Zenawi in Ethiopia.
The World Bank and IMF officials met with representatives of the protestors and received documents describing the atrocities in Ethiopia by the Meles regime.
The World Bank officials told the protestors that they, too, are concerned by the political crisis in Ethiopia and are discussing with the Meles regime about it.
