Aljazeera posted on 8 January 2021 a 25-minute podcast titled "Does Ethiopia's PM Want a Peaceful End to the Tigray War" with Awol Allo, Keele University, Kjetil Tronvoll, Oslo New University College, and Adem Kassie Abebe, International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance.
The panelists were skeptical whether Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's recent release of political prisoners and talk of national dialogue are serious steps towards peace.
