Is independence from Ethiopia the TPLF’s endgame in Tigray? | UpFront
Listen now
Description
Fighting in Ethiopia’s Tigray region between the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) and Ethiopian and Eritrean forces has left thousands dead and forced more than 600,000 to flee to neighbouring Sudan. This week on UpFront we ask Getachew Reda, Executive Committee member of the TPLF, about the conflict and whether the group’s ultimate goal is an independent Tigrayan state. And a series of mass shootings in recent weeks has reignited the debate about guns in the United States, but will any substantive reforms be made? In a special interview, Marc Lamont Hill discusses the politics of gun control with activist and school-shooting survivor Cameron Kasky. - Subscribe to our channel: http://aje.io/AJSubscribe - Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish - Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera - Check our website: https://www.aljazeera.com/
