This week, on the Global Research News Hour, while the headlines are raging around the war in Ukraine, we will feature a discussion about a nation where the death toll has risen to as many as half a million due to fighting, starvation and lack of medical attention. We are taking a look at the difficulties facing Ethiopia and Eritrea after the new round of violence that erupted into a civil war as of November of 2020. We first speak to an American activist originally from Eritrea to explain the situation from his perspective. In our second half hour, journalist Ann Garrison joins us while she is in the middle of her investigative tour through Ethiopia and Eritrea to give us more on the situation and more about the role of the US in undermining the peace of the people.
