America wants to use Ethiopia as a police state that manages the horn of Africa like they use to back in the TPLF days. Somalia benefited from Ethiopia fighting itself but it seems America is now making a deal with Ethiopia so Ethiopia can pressure Somalia again. Abiy Ahmed recently released TPLF POW's and is currently in UAE same time as Rooble is in and it is rumored that both Deni and Madoobe are heading to UAE.
U.S. AFRICOM COMMANDER GEN. STEPHEN TOWNSEND: Yes, I do share those concerns with regards to Ethiopia. So Ethiopia has been, you know they're the second-largest country in Africa. They've been a powerhouse economically and security wise in East Africa for decades. And they're there what America has referred to as anchor state. However, the civil war has turned their focus inward, this war between the government and the Tigrayans. … They’re not an anchor state right now because they can't because their turned inward, so I think we very much want to see the Ethiopians work through these disagreements and come to a peaceful resolution. The situation has stabilized there over the last few weeks and has calmed a bit, a significant bit from what it was right before Christmas. So, yeah, we're worried about Ethiopia. Ethiopia is very important to the stability of the entire Horn of Africa, so we want to see Ethiopia work through this problem in a peaceful way.
