Forsaken in a Foreign Land

Audio Clip
Numerous News agencies and Media outlets are reporting on the bleak reality facing Ethiopians that are currently stranded in Lebanon. Contrary to what the Ethiopian embassy in Lebanon is claiming, there apparently has been no effort made to evacuate these citizens. Ethiopian Politics is in the processes of contacting the Red Cross, Amnesty International and UNHCR regarding this issue. We ask all concerned Ethiopians to join us in voicing the plight of our brothers and sisters to anyone who may be in a position to help. Please call the following organizations:

UNHCR
RED CROSS, LEBANON
Amnesty, EU
Amnesty, USA

Orion Mengistu, a concerned Ethiopian, recently informed us that the UN is organizing convoys for foreign citizens who are abandoned by their respective countries. According to Mr. Mengistu the person to contact is :
