Addis Abeba– Getachew Reda, President of the Tigray Interim Administration, has accused Eritrea of being among those “who think they can benefit from turmoil that will be created in Tigray,” while also warning that “certain TPLF groups who have lost legal acceptance” are working to destabilize the region.
In a press briefing held on March 13, 2025, in Addis Abeba, Getachew said, “There are many parties who think they can benefit from turmoil that will be created in Tigray,” adding, “I know the Eritrean government is one of them.”
He further stated that “the Eritrean government entered into its first conflict with the Federal Government after we agreed to the Pretoria Agreement,” adding that achieving peace with Eritrea does not mean disregarding “the massacre that Eritrea committed against Tigray.”

Getachew also claimed that some actors who fear potential dangers have “presented themselves as servants” and are “making efforts to use this force in a certain way.” However, he clarified that this does not mean “all political forces in general” would engage with Eritrea and take action accordingly.
