ADDIS ABABA: Ethiopia has accused Eritrea of joining forces with a hard-line opposition faction in preparing to launch a war, according to a letter from the foreign affairs ministry obtained by AFP on Wednesday. The Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF), which dominated Ethiopian politics for some 30 years, has been banned from political activity. Relations have been extremely strained for several months between the two neighbors, more than 30 years after Eritrea gained independence from Ethiopia after a decades-long armed struggle.
