Markey (D-MA), Cory Booker (D-NJ), Chris Coons (D-DE) y Mitt Romney (R-UT), enviaron una carta al Primer Ministro de Etiop\u00eda antes de las conversaciones de paz planificadas dirigidas por la Uni\u00f3n Africana comenzar\u00e1 ma\u00f1ana. En su carta bipartidista, los senadores dan la bienvenida a la decisi\u00f3n del gobierno de Etiop\u00eda de participar en las conversaciones de paz en Sud\u00e1frica e instan al cese de las hostilidades y al acceso humanitario sin restricciones antes y durante las negociaciones.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"><strong>\u201cEl aumento de la violencia en las \u00faltimas semanas es el \u00faltimo cap\u00edtulo tr\u00e1gico de una guerra que ha tenido un costo humano devastador\u201d, escribieron los senadores. \u201cDesde el comienzo del conflicto en noviembre de 2020, se estima que 2,5 millones de civiles han sido desplazados y aproximadamente 500.000 han muerto\u201d.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">Los senadores contin\u00faan se\u00f1alando c\u00f3mo el colapso de la tregua humanitaria de cinco meses detuvo la entrega de ayuda crucial a 5,2 millones de personas necesitadas, incluidas una gran cantidad de mujeres y ni\u00f1os. En agosto, Naciones Unidas advirti\u00f3 que uno de cada tres ni\u00f1os tigrayanos menores de cinco a\u00f1os en el norte de Etiop\u00eda est\u00e1 gravemente desnutrido.

Una resoluci\u00f3n pac\u00edfica del conflicto es imperativa y los instamos a facilitar este paso cr\u00edtico hacia la paz mediante el cese inmediato de las hostilidades\u201d, concluyeron.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">El texto completo de la carta sigue a continuaci\u00f3n:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Estimado Primer Ministro Abiy,<\/p>\n<p>Damos la bienvenida a la decisi\u00f3n del Gobierno de Etiop\u00eda de participar en las pr\u00f3ximas conversaciones de paz en Sud\u00e1frica, dirigidas por la Uni\u00f3n Africana. Instamos encarecidamente a todas las partes involucradas en los combates a que cesen de inmediato las hostilidades, incluida la retirada de las Fuerzas de Defensa de Eritrea del norte de Etiop\u00eda, y permitan el acceso humanitario sin restricciones a toda la regi\u00f3n para garantizar el \u00e9xito de las negociaciones.<\/p>\n<p>El aumento de la violencia en las \u00faltimas semanas es el \u00faltimo cap\u00edtulo tr\u00e1gico de una guerra que ha tenido un costo humano devastador.

Con el colapso de la tregua humanitaria de cinco meses, ya no se entrega ayuda crucial a los 5,2 millones de personas necesitadas en Tigray, incluidas muchas mujeres y ni\u00f1os. Naciones Unidas advirti\u00f3 en agosto que uno de cada tres ni\u00f1os menores de cinco a\u00f1os en el norte de Etiop\u00eda est\u00e1 gravemente desnutrido, mientras que 20 millones en toda Etiop\u00eda padecen inseguridad alimentaria. Estos impactantes n\u00fameros seguramente aumentar\u00e1n mientras contin\u00fae la lucha. La semana pasada, el secretario general de la ONU dijo que la situaci\u00f3n en Etiop\u00eda se est\u00e1 saliendo de control.<\/p>\n<p>Ya se han perdido demasiadas vidas en este conflicto, y en el conflicto en todo el pa\u00eds.
