[TLM Editorial Viewpoint]
The ongoing struggle for democracy in Tigray demonstrates the value of strong leadership and resilience among its people. The people of Tigray are crying for the political change and a new visionary leadership that puts the interests of the people first above the party’s interest.
As challenges persist, the vision for democratic Tigray lives on as the young generation advocates for freedom, liberty, justice, accountability, and democracy. This unwavering commitment to democratic principles brings a sense of unity and purpose together, inspiring the young and the old generations to engage in activism and reshape Tigray’s politics, where all political parties can compete to win power through fair and free democratic elections.
With each passing day, the hope for a democratic Tigray grows stronger, as the voices for change continue to resonate across Tigray. The demand for freedom and liberty is bringing a sense of unity among the populace, inspiring grassroots initiatives that seek to empower individuals and communities alike. The dream for democracy becomes increasingly attainable, signalling a transformative, brighter, and prosperous future for Tigray.
The collective aspiration and unity strengthen the resolve of the Tigrayan people to transition from the TPLF’s repressive ideology to a democratic system. In addition, the Simret party can attract the attention of democratic allies who recognise the importance of supporting such a political party. This can encourage democratic countries to lend their support for the people of Tigray.
As Simret advances ahead on its political journey, the determination to cultivate a peaceful and inclusive democratic society remains at the forefront of the party’s efforts. The momentum is building up, and the Tigrai Democratic Solidarity (Simret) party is a peaceful political force for change in Tigray, aiding peace and cooperation across the region.
