The absence of robust support from several African states during the Russo-Ukrainian conflict baffles the leaders of Western nations. Ethiopia is leading the charge in this contemporary struggle for self-determination being waged by the African nations.

PM Abiy has demonstrated that African leaders can oppose the U.S., which may serve as an example for other African leaders who may later face similar pressure from America. Joe Biden, the president of the United States, was so humiliated by this that he decided not to invite Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali to the U.S.-Africa Leaders’ Summit.
