Ethiopia is set to hold elections on May 29, 2026, but the Tigray region will not participate for the second time in a row. This exclusion raises questions about the region's political future and stability.
Tensions in Tigray have been high, and the decision not to include the region in the electoral process could exacerbate existing issues.
Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's Prosperity Party is anticipated to secure a victory in the upcoming elections, further solidifying its grip on power amid the ongoing political landscape.
