In an interview with Arts TV world, Mekdelawit Messay reflects on multifaceted challenges that emanated from systemic failures.

Much of the issues she talked about need to be given due consideration by policy makers (especially education policy).

Possible reservation for those who tend to think critically is the notion of internationalism (in social media some describe it as global citizenship). What really constitute internationalism is a question that the critical mass is grappling to understand. it remain a question in view of the history of it, the status quo and the global conquest agenda through culture, economic repression – among other things.)

Arts TV interview with Lemlem Fisseha, who is member of Ethiopia’s negotiating team on the GERD talk, on historical agreements that Ethiopia signed on the use of Abay river and other legal issues regarding the river is informative to say the least.

How do you understand the notion of equitable and fair use of the water? Does the existing use of water reflect that principle? These are among the questions that the conversation with Lemlem addresses.

From historical trajectory, what have Ethiopian administrations in the past did to defend Ethiopia’s right to use from the water? The interview has some insights in that regard too. You may also notice Emperor Menelik’s diplomatic skills and consciousness to defend Ethiopia’s national interest.

The interview is in Amharic.
