Former Ethiopian Diplomat Blasts TPLF as Tools of Imperialism in Horn of Africa
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 июл 2024
- As the situation in Ethiopia continues to escalate, the war over narratives is in full force. Who are the good guys and who are the bad guys? Is it even that black and white? Is the TPLF fighting a war for liberation of the Tigrayan people against a cruel government or is it executing a war of aggression to regain power after losing it? And what should we make of recent developments such as the Oromo Liberation Front joining the TPLF in its fight against the state? What does it all mean for the greater Horn region?
To help make sense of all of this and place it in its proper historical context, Rania Khalek was joined by Mohamed Hassan, who served as an Ethiopian diplomat in the 1990s before resigning in protest of the TPLF. He was also a member of the Ethiopian student movement in the 1970s. And he just returned from a visit to Ethiopia and Eritrea.

The world needs such kind of Educated honest person 🇪🇷❤️🇪🇹
Rania, you are a true Jornalist that continuously pushes the limit to educate your audience. You are better than BBC and CNN combined.
Oh Man .... Mr. Muhammad Hassan, I don't know why I didn't come across and listen to you long time ago. What a resourcefull Historian, Diplomat and an edueducator. I am stunned that we have an outstanding brother not only for all Africans but including the Arabs who have become Western messengers. I don't understand why the Ethiopian government did not choose Mr. Muhammad to teach and Educate all Ethiopian Diplomats and Ministrers. Please Dr. Abiy Mr. Muhammad maybe a humble person he is not going to ask for a position but for Ethiopian Government not to use his knowledge is mind boggling. I look forward to see him educate our government, I mean for the whole horn of Africa. Mr. Muhammad, I wisha you a long, long life.
Dear Rania, you are very intelligent a better journalist of all. Humble, respectful, sharp intact as sharp as a razor. I wish you team up with Mr. Muhammad and plan a tour around the world discussing world topic. Like touring all the US cities, I can see your show will be jam packed. Please think about it.
well said and totally agree!! Dr Abiy also looks for such people to put in position. for example the current president of somali region is also a very knowlegeable young guy and Muhammad Hassan is advising him :)
@@dagabgaz3129
I hope so. We should not burn out and loose treasure people like him. I can see how he can scare the day light out of the so called "white man". I can see how he can teach them a lesson. He simply makes us proud. In many ways he is like President Isaias but Mr. Muhammad is more diplomatic. But thank you for your observation.
BBC and CNN? Those two mind control offices?
Well, obviously she is!
AbiyhamidAli is not humble is murder and genocidal leader. He is planted to get ride of China by america.
CNN and BBC are fake news ….
Simply wow! The whole Africans should listen to this interview & stand together to defend our continent. Enough is enough!!!
The time has come for us Africans to recognize our weaknesses and come up together to solve the problems of our people which make us behind. If these come into practice, I am sure the westerners will never be an obstacle. Worikng as partners improve situations in the world rather than being oppressed by the super powers. . Personally I feel happy when I see world's competition all nations together!. That is where I wish if these kind of cooperation and collaboration exist for development in the developing countries war would be avoided. Bravo Mr. M. Hassen you are one of the few honest persons in the world. Our youth are not lucky to know the true history and are confused to think of their future. They ve become dependent of the new technology and life seems easy and simple when one move to developed countries.
@Sammy Yohannes reality it hurts you because of deadly ideology of Amharism Ethiopia European colonization created! That idea was 19 century old and European colonization are minority power now.. so don’t think Amharism Ethiopia will happen again!
@sammy yohannes. be logical and try to analyse the past and the present. Where are we now? What we need is to come together to make our Africa big and being competent for this we ve to understand and respect each other!
@Sammy Yohannes do you think you know better than Dr. Mohamed Hassen, you funny
@Sammy Yohannes Sammy sorry u just heard from the ruling warlords to legitimize to be called Nugus (Kings),and their Debtaras
Thank you BT being a voice to Ethiopia!
Thank you BT being a voice for Ethiopia 🙏
Most excellent interview! Rania, your tendency to give your interviewees ample time to express themselves is highly appreciated.
This type of person gives me hope, because we all are not blind and stupid, it’s all about the time and place the truth will prevail.! Thank you 🙏🏽 for both of you for bringing the truth to the light always #✊
ya! well said
I like most of his analysis. But be careful. He is portraying ethiopia as previously ruled by Amharas brutally. And the fact that he keeps bringing it up multiple times forces me to question his motives. He always starts to history kf Ethiopia right when tewodros cane to power a d leaves everything before that. He is painting Ethiopia as a country multiple states forced by gun to create unity. Be very careful
He is saying Menilik conquered Ethiopia with help of Italy and france. Lol
He is just a hater of USA any thing that is white and a Somali ultra Ethno-nationalist who has a dirty view of the Ethiopia and its origin and I am being PC
This is ethiopian history told by none amharas . Good job sir .
I'm from Sudan and I desperately needed this to make sense of what's happening across the border. Thank you Moh Hassan, and thanks for this episode, Rania.
This person is insanely knowledgeable and intelligent. I felt bad about myself after listening all his interviews as if I previously have been known very little to none about the issues he addressed. I realized I need to read a lot more and think more critical.
Remember, there two truth in Ethiopia as recently said by one European scholar. This knows only the bad things of the past because it didn't benefit him. Now he is like most of his beneficiary seekers comrades those came back from abroad enjoying for himself and praising Abiy. The truth is no ordinary people including his own somale's people not agree with him.
Lol. He is. And he is making some good statements. But be really careful of people like these. He is subtly paiting Amharas as villains who created the concept of Ethiopia onto other by force. Dont be fooled and naive because he is talking bad things about TPLF. We all want TPLF to be destroyed once and for all. But using that he is inserting some things that are very misleading fo the international community. When the war is over Abiy most certainly will turn against Amharas and will start his propaganda. Mark my word. There is reason why they don't want amharas to organize even in the mixed of all this when Amharas are at the forefront of the war losing their lives for their country. I know too much to get fooled with smooth talks like this guy and abiy. Be really careful.
@@dalloll this is an observation of ethiopia from the eastern people.i would like to see one from the southern people as well
@@dhabank reality it hurts you because of deadly ideology of Amharism Ethiopia European colonization created! That idea was 19 century old and European colonization are minority power now.. so don’t think Amharism Ethiopia will happen again!
@@adama2988 I think amharanisim will end here forever, because it's a man-made from the beginning to represent the settlers.
This guy knows his facts about the HOA. May Allah protect him.
Ameen
WOW! This guy is like a walking library, so much knowledge about so many countries. Thanks for introducing him to us.
A masterclass in horn of African politics!! Wow. What an insightful interview. I cannot thank you enough for inviting this gentleman who is a wealth of knowledge from the inside. Journalism at its best. Long live Ethiopia, long live a peaceful and prosperous Horn of Africa that reaches her potential. 💚💛❤️
You do realize he is painting Amharas as villains in ethiopias history? You need to listen and analyze every word and sentence he is saying. I know TPLF needs to be gone and I know there is a lot western pressure on the government that is super biased. But you need to be wary of people like these who slip in and start making statements like 'Ethiopia is constructed 200 years ago after tewodros'. Paraphrasing of course.
@@dalloll yes I wouldn’t say I agreed with every single assertion that he made. Especially the one you just raised. However his analysis of the TPLF was spot on and I really like his perspective on the future of the Horn and frankly that’s the most important thing. Peace and regional trade and co-operation is the only way that the horn can quickly elevate its people and make efficient use of its resources. The fact that his historical framing of Amharas (of which I am a proud member) is flawed but not enough to detract from the wider and more important points…TPLF must go and regional countries must learn to work together, trade together and rapidly grow together.
@@ZionCrafter I do love to look the other way and pretend all is good if this was the only statement in regards to this. The so called experts either foreigners or insiders who are backing up Abiy are consistently making the same statement and creating the same narrative. Its worrying to me because it tells me there is some broader plan when the TPLF is dealt with properly. Considering it with the fact that there is a force that is constantly preventing amhara from organizing or even addressing properly the inhuman conditions the people go through is a prove to me there is a major plan. There is a systematic plan to make the region as corrupt as possible and politically challenged. I personally dont think the war will be over for at least 5 years. That is a major set back for the people of Amhara and to some level Afar. Why the need to cease fire when we were ohh n attacking mode and close to destroying TPLF?
@@dalloll it’s all speculation at this point. In times of conflict truth becomes very difficult to identify. I have noticed a pattern of behaviour with Abiy, where he tends to allow his opponents to show there true colours (even if it costs lives and property) and then he aggressively clamps down once the public have seen them for what they are (he did that with Jawar too). In this case I think he calculated that the attack on the northern command would be enough for the international community to support his response in Tigray but he was wrong. So to ceasefire and withdraw and allow the TPLF to attack Amhara and Afar he has exposed them for who they are. Now the next move to finish them will likely be decisive. Personally I think his decision to do a full scale attack in Tigray and to invite Eritrean troops was wrong. It risks too many innocent peoples lives in Tigray and consequently galvanises Tegaru to support the TPLF. A simple, covert operation would have been far far better.

Thank you BT for voicing the truth, I don't think of any other Media speaking at this time about Ethiopia positive things. We never forget your efforts to expose TPLF's heinous action to the world and Westerns in your show.

She really is. Intelligent woman.

You're such a blessing Rania. I came to this channel from that first vid you guys did on the crisis in Ethiopia and now I've learned so much more on what is going on in Lebanon and Syria and a lot more. Thank you for shedding light on things the mainstream media won't.
Wow, wow, wow! He is SO knowledgeable, and we don’t need a book. He is a living witness for the history! Thank you so much for revealing the TRUTH!!!! Ethiopia shall prevail!
Your efforts to understand the situation in the HoA is commendable. Today, you hosted one of the most knowledgeable HoA citizens, prof Mohammed Hassen. I advise you to pay a visit to the region and particularly Eritrea.
He gives me hope for Eritrea 🇪🇷
He is an ethno-nationalist that disqualifies him being a trusted academician.
@@lopsideduser-lz1bg2oc7r There is no harm with being ethno-nationalist. The problem comes when it is used as a cover for practicing other agendas that do not serve the masses. Prof. Mohammed is currently an advisor of Mustafe, Pres. of the Somalia region. Mustafa has not only proven himself to be a servant of the people under his custody but also a source of hope for other Ethiopians. So, you seem to hastily label Prof. Mohammed as Ethno-nationalist.
No the only thing he knows is that he has a minimum understanding of TPLF. The rest is pure rubbish.
@@anghesomghebrehiwot6231Ethno-nationalists are dangerous look at the tplf itself,Jawar and others they were all ethnio-nationalists and did much harm.Ethno-nationalism destroyed Yugoslavia and the USSR.I don’t think you can say it is ok to be one.It is the biggest problem for my country today and we need less of it not more.Thankfully the youth now is starting to abandon this type of political thinking after seeing how dangerous it is.
Excellent!!!! Raniya, again, thank you for making me believe that Journalism is NOT dead. Not because you give us what we want to hear, but because You bring people Who KNOW THE TRUTH and FACTS. Plus you have AMAZING PATIENCE!!!! WOW!!! Thank you.
Thanks ms.Rania❤⚘ for introducing and inviting dr.Moh'd as a panelist,,, a very informative and helpful video that sheds light from multiple perspective of Ethiopia and HOA
This man is a BOOK. He make me to read more. Salute!
I agree with you, I feel the same way
This interview is gold mine, i didn’t understand why Ethiopia and Somalia are enemy , I have heard different stories growing up, after hearing profssor mohamed, I have learned a lot factor irritating the East African communities, specially Somalia 🇸🇴 Ethiopia 🇪🇹 Eritrea 🇪🇷. Thanks 🙏

Because they oppressed and killed your people 'Somalis in Ethiopia '. I was born and raised in the Somali region in Ethiopia, you can't imagine the things I witnessed. Being part of Ethiopia brings nothing but suffering and poverty.
@@tormundgaint1022 lmao if we r being honest the whole horn is problematic now lol independent Somalia isn't doing much better is it infact the Somali region in Ethiopia thrives gets its electricity from Ethiopia its various infrastructure needs are also fulfilled so u r not suffering and poor because of ethiopia u would be poorer and suffer even more if u were independent but now u have smtn to blame it on
That is a big lesson, not only for us Ethiopians, but for the whole Africa. Thank you very much!!
But he has some mismatched history ,,,we need to take the whole discussion with grain of salt.🙈🙈🙈
@@popshitspopshits do you mind explaining which are the mismatch history? If you can’t add facts, please don’t seed doubt and confusion. He is more knowledgeable about the region than any white intellectual pretending to be experts.
My only clarification to the discussion is Eritrea was not created by Italians. True the infrastructure was built by Italian colonial. However, Eritrea was always a separate country with its constitutional king and administrations.
@@SelamEri-lx3km1. This il - shebab collaborator did not state TPLF programs rather he vomited a pack of lies to confuse innocent people or audiences. 2. TPLF didn't start in the 1970th. He needed to refer his historical chronicles know-how. 3. Even the DERGI leader Mengistu Hailemariam fear's more to TPLF than EHPA or others. 4. Ethiopia economic development had vibrant acceptance on both sides, that is: Western world
as well Eastern world. It was growing in double digits. Last but not least. I may setup for more points 👉 suffice, let me conclude that this person is sick man!!! He is soaked up with bitter hatered agaist TPLF party !! TPLF had contributed undeniable economically, socially as well as political change to the country called Ethiopia which was downtrodden by a military junta for seventeen years!! TPLF ascending to power gave a breathing space from terrible terror, death and other atrocities!!
N.B. what amazed and even saddened me is the magnitudes of people who gave to this sick man a "yes" or thumbs up 👍with out chewing the issue's substances. When someone speaking based on hatered grumpy grudge without factual data and evidence, it's obvious time for checkout the truth. It's everyone obligation to discern at a venomous tongue when lashes out at something without data and critical analysis.
Mohamed Hassan is an amazing good hearted man. I've seen him on HOA TV and he talked in depth about the war in Somalia and the role of TPLF (then ruling Ethiopia). The kind of diplomat that the region needs for peace and development. Great job Breakthrough News.
Do u have a link of that video where he talks about Somalia

@@tj5180 He talks about Somalia (in depth too) many times but regarding Somalia and TPLF this 1 is dedicated to it

@@Black-lioness Nope, no Amhara stood next to the Oromo people. When you heard the gun shots in Gonder, you run back to your house. We stood firm and resisted against TPLF. Now, Amharas are persecuting the Oromo people. We're done with the Northern people of Ethiopia. We want our independence.
OLA only made military alliance with TDF, not to fight along with but only to share military intelligence. Once the war is over, we'll claim our country back. Bye bye 👋
The best interview I’ve ever watched on RUclips or anywhere else. This patriotic Ethiopian doesn’t mince his word. Shoots straight. He would be a great asset for our country. What the hell is Abiy doing about it? It’s time to use these great minds that Ethiopia invested in.
The minute this great man mentioned the name Anthony Lake, a flash of memories came vividly. This was the man who complicated the Eritrean Ethiopian conflict of 98. Overtly, he acted as a peace broker while covertly worked with Meles of TPLF to destroy Eritrea.
Thank you professor for your analysis and exposing the TPLF and its handlers for what they are. And thank you Ranio for your untampered clean journalism.
This is excellent. Thanks for being the voice of the mass.

You both are giving life support for the truth on the ground. Well explained !
Thank you Mohamed and BT
Thank you Professor Mohammed Hassen for this educative piece. Great journalism, as well. Time to bring such intellectuals home as critical architects of the Renaissance project -socially, politucally, and economically. The Horn of Africa must be defended and rebuilt with our own resources and mentalities. Our scholars, politicians and the youth must educate themselves and rise above the neoliberal simulacra which feeds on and perpetuates our misery. Keep the discourse alive!
Wow! This is an exceptional interview. I’m speechless. My heart is so warm thinking we have someone this knowledgeable that speaks Ethiopians pain and truth. Impeccable! Thank you Rania

He is right on TPLF,, but his narratives on ethiopian history still lack authenticity, rather orally presented it. Any how we need to take it with grain of salts.

Tplf did a lot of atrocities against non tegaru innocent people the last 30 years
I think they started their atrocities with moderate tegarus before moving to Ethiopia
TPLF brought you development that you never saw in existence of savage barbarian Ethiopia.
I am an Ethiopian diaspora who lives in America . I really enjoyed this conversation & I would like to tell you that ,I have subscribed to your channel & pushed on the notification so , I won't miss out on any of your content going forward. With that being said . If you would like to know the perspective of an ordinary Ethiopian who lives outside of Ethiopia . Please keep me in mind ❤️. Mr Mohammed was very funny at the same time very informative. It's sad that the only American/western Media outlet that tries to be even & fair is only you. If I'm am wrong .I will stand corrected . I remember when my friends & I used to argue over who has the most credible & unbiased media . I used to tell them it was American news outlets. Now I will never trust or even bother to findout what has been said on American major news outlets. More specifically , NewYork times, Washington Post , CNN etc... ,. I personally had big respect for CNN & NewYork times . But now I witnessed & it was a prove to me that , Even Giant news outlets like Washington post & NewYork times has no freedom lol . Clearly Government officials tell them what to say ,how to say & when to say it 😁.
Thank you
@RaniaKhalek! Indeed. Mohamed Hassan is a remarkable educator; above all a truth-tellers. He knows Horn-#Africa, North Africa and Mid Eastern history like the palm of his hand. And of course, he tells it all like it is! #Ethiopia #Eritrea #Somalia
Thank you for hosting the right person to teach the word the truth. The majority of Ethiopians, 100 million, either dislike or hate TPLF! The majority has spoken and support Dr. Abiy and the Ethiopian military. TPLF will vanish, our country will transition to a Democratic Govt. It is time for the West to realize that the majority of Ethiopians will sport Dr. Abiy. We, the majority, will not allow TPLF to ever come to power ever again. We will do everything to prevent it. Mind you, Tigray is only 5% of the 110 million people.
What a spectacular interview, the guest is a live Encylopedia, thank you for enlightening us.
The world has more than 300 languages and ďr Mohamed chose to speak the truth. What a great person He is absolutely intellectual may God protect you sir.
Being part of Ethiopia brings nothing but suffering and poverty. I was in Jigjiga last month in the Somali region in Ethiopia. Things are better, but we should never forgot how things were last 70 years.

It was a great pleasure to watch the interview with Mohamed Hassan, a former Ethiopian diplomat and Somali from the Ethiopian Somali Region. In a very interesting way, he described the 27-year rule of the TPLF, its history, doctrine and what guided them. And I agree with his opinion and criticism of the policies of the US and Western EU governments. A valuable source of information. Congratulations!
I found knowledge and fairness here.
Thank you for both of you
The thing is those who are greedy doesn’t have that mentality to accept the truth
That's pretty dynamic mindful of knowledge and wisdom of genuine Ethiopian, Ethiopia will prevail and stand firm against it's enemy
Wow!!! So proud of you brother I have no words how I admire your intelligence in everything thank you for being the voice, and thank you so much for inviting him 🙏👏👏👏

TPLF dissected inside out by a knowledgeable diplomat that worked closely with them. Thank you BT for the through work.
I can listen to Prof. Mohammed all day! The wisest, dignified, courageous man of his word. May Allah give long life. Love you, my Prof.
Thank you. History placed in its proper context. I also appreciate the patience of the journalist in giving him the opportunity to express it clearly to the audience
Thank you both for making this informative interview a success. I for one learned a lot about our history. It may take time but truth always wins. Ethiopia is guarded by God and untouchable to no sleazy human, group or country.
Oh, thank you prof Mohammed. Really happy to see you & I was eager after reading ur role organizing in the 1974 Muslims protest.
Whoa! Mind blowing 🤯! This man is a gem of Africa! Thank You 🙏🏽 Ranya You have broken through again!!!
Something has occured to me. Little knowledge and Education. With self serving ambitions. Seems to be a trait that all who seek power have. And it is always bad for those under their sway and influence. So it come down to the sage old adage. A little knowledge in the hands of a would be leadership, is always bad for the whole. Which mean that the collective has less knowledge. Which allows the would be leadership to use their little knowledge. To control and impose rulership. Which is why I call for all people to get well rounded education. That is comprehensive and proactive. To think critically and see through the haze of the con artist, who would be kings.
don't gain the world and lose your soul, wisdom is better than silver and gold.
but it is the way of life.power is always in the hands of the idiot...intelligence questions power and power doesn't like that...that's why we don't see intelligent people running our world that is why brutes rise up to seize power since intelligent people question and dissolve power they weaken power.
Dear Presenter. I admire your professionalism, patience and listening skill. Thank you for your interest in the politics of the region. Keep up the good work.
Mohammed Hassen, you are encyclopedia. I am proud of you as an Ethiopian.

FUNNY HOW BBC OR ALJAZEERA N OTHER mainstream international big medias fail to interview this knowledgeable person , is it because they couldn't find him or they don't want to ? once again thank you BT news for your efforts and for showing us journalism still exists ... u made m not to give up ,,,,
The Somali region achieved beyond my imagination. Thanks to Mustefe and his team
What is the development you’re referring to? I’m not familiar with with the Somali region
I like to thank the platform breaking through news first and for most, secondly dear country man Professor Mohammad I thank you for your standing for the truth and only for the truth, I salute you for the commitment not only for better Ethiopia but the whole region which is essential. I am proud to see salad Ethiopuans as Professor specially in this difficult times. B.T.N continue your hard work, your channel is definitely making a difference.
Truly a well of information. The fire coming from him is all on point.
WOW!!!, I can't even explain how I felt about this conversation, I just want to say thank you Rania and also your guest Mohammed!!!!. keep on.
Your guest, the Ethiopian Mohammed Hassan, was a rare intellectual with few equals. He is a brilliant, well rounded politician of our time who knows the intricate political dynamics of the Horn from his finger tips and by extension, the continent as a whole and the world at large
Often than not , though probably not pronounced, the opportunities your show has given to African issues by bringing African intellectuals to shade lights on varied issues of the continent , worths a mention and a deep thank you.
Thanks for inviting this guest. He is very experienced, well informed and non-parisan.He is a testimony to how dynamic Ethiopian Somalis are.!
Thank you both,Mohamed for the free great lecture and Rania for letting this intellect come through unfiltered.Hope this to reach as many ears as possible.Never been so hopeful about the future of east AFRICA.
this guy is a moving history book ,
Another excellent and eye-opening interview.
Thank you Rania and your guest Mohammed
*Rania Khalek* I am in Ghana I was born in the UK my parents are Jamaicans this is the most educational interview on African affairs. I've ever listened to; Mohammad Hassan's sincerity and depth of knowledge completely off the scale thanks for educating me. I have a different view of the Lebanese after this interview.
🇪🇷🇸🇴🇾🇪🇪🇹
Unfortunate our Sudan brothers and sisters still they don't get good leaders
Thank you so much Rania. Where did you get this man. I can listen to him all day long. Very knowledgeable !! We owe you! We won't forget people like you.
There are much more Ethiopians like him. Ethiopia is blessed by intellectuals but they deny their poor people. Most are greedy and self-centered. As long as they live a lavish life they don't even remember their parents.
@@shunumii7214 tplf terrorist agency it’s gone and horn African region will start rebuilding their if three decades..
Thank you Rania for caring to present the truth/ reality of Ethiopia & the region, against the deafening lie/ distortion promoted by the west! Thank you Mr Mohammed for deep explanation on the issues I learnt sooo much, and for your vision for the Horn!!! Being an Ethiopian of Tigrean background, I like what you clearly said about the Tigrean people, being no 1 victims of the thief, poisonous & sell out/ 'banda' TPLF, because it is 100% True.
Very insightful and educational interview. The interviewee and the interviewer were both brilliant! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Peace and prosperity to the Horn of Africa.
what an interview ! we wanna listen to this brilliant man again please ?. 1:30 hours interview feels 1 min
Thank you Rania for bringing bringing Professor Mohammed to your show. I learned a lot
GOD bless you Mohammed Hassan 🙏
Wow wow no word to express
This is what I am talking every day, we the people of Africa must see beyond food and war, the bait is visible now it’s been there for years we need to wake up and unite
Thank you sir for your eloquently described the situation in Ethiopia and in the horn I will lesson you again and more you are one of a kind the awakened one,
Thank you Rania, I am the witness here journalism is at its best
Thank you, I will share this to many people who doesn’t know how our world function
Smart interactions of ideas, regarding the situation of Africa as a whole. He really put it to the ground.
Everyone must subscribe to this channel. I am in Journalism academia some good years. This is what we call "Journalism alive" as Journalism suffers from fake news, misinformation, and disinformation. What a great interview with a very profoundly knowledgeable man and knowledgeable journalist. I am more knowledgeable after this interview.
