held on 04 September 2024, Amdom Gebreselassie, the party\u2019s chairman, emphasized that the absence of justice for those responsible is contributing to the potential for future hostilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">\u201cWe are seeing the paths leading to war once again,\u201d Amdeom noted, adding that \u201cthe sounding of the drums of war stems from the lack of accountability for the war of the past two years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The chairman further stated that \u201cwhether from TPLF, Eritrean forces, or the Prosperity Party side, the responsible parties for the war have not been held accountable,\u201d contributing to a continued \u201cdesire for war.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The statement from the opposition party comes against the backdrop of internal tensions within the Tigray People\u2019s Liberation Front (TPLF), where a rift has developed between TPLF Chairman Debretsion Gebremichael and Getachew Reda, President of the Tigray interim administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Previously, three opposition parties in Tigray\u2014Salsay Weyane Tigray, Tigray Independence Party, and National Congress of Great Tigray\u2014criticized the TPLF, describing it as \u201cclearly in a state of decay\u201d and accused the party of attempting \u201cto maintain its grip on power through force.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">They also called for the formation of an inclusive regional government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">In its statement, Arena Tigray described the division as \u201ca reckless approach that poses a danger to Tigray.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The party attributed the division to \u201cpersonal and factional interests\u201d and warned that deliberate attempts to escalate the division risk drawing the public into further conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Amdom alleged that the two factions within the TPLF are \u201cengaging in mutual accusations,\u201d with \u201cone faction aligning with Addis Abeba and the other with Asmara.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">He added that Arena Tigray is aware that \u201cone of these factions has ties with Eritrea.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">During a <a href=\"https:\/\/addisstandard.com\/lieutenant-general-tadesse-werede-vows-to-prevent-political-disputes-from-threatening-the-security-of-tigray-region\/\">briefing<\/a> on 21 August, 2024, Lieutenant General Tadesse Werede, Deputy President of Tigray\u2019s interim administration and Head of the Cabinet Secretariat for Peace and Security, emphasized that \u201conly indigenous Tigrayans participate in local political affairs\u201d and firmly rejected any external interference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">\u201cWe are steadfastly committed to resolving political differences through constructive dialogue and turning them into opportunities for progress,\u201d Lieutenant General Tadesse stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">He further assured the public that significant efforts are underway to prevent political disagreements from escalating into security threats within the Tigray region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Tadesse declared, urging leaders to
