The Prime Minister of Ethiopia has
stepped into the row between Sir Bob Geldof and the BBC which has claimed that
95 per cent of the $100m aid raised, by Live Aid and others, to fight famine in
rebel-held northern Ethiopia in 1985 was diverted to be spent on weapons. "We
captured large amounts of guns and tanks. We did not need to buy arms. What we
needed was food. So why would we sell food to buy arms?" Mr Meles said.
AT the specified time i was one of the captive of x-military Derege regime but i observed that TPLF has problem with Guns as most the sourse weapons were military. The PM was right i am a witness that so many people from Tigray have saved their life because of this donation. Please think like that time TPLF was one who symbotize with public.
