📜 Petition: The People of Tigray  & The People of Eritrea Reject Any Alliance Between TPLF-D and Eritrean Shaebia (PFDJ)

To:

 • The Interim Administration of Tigray

 • The African Union (AU) and Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD)

 • The Federal Government of Ethiopia

 • International Partners of the Pretoria Peace Agreement

 • The United Nations Human Rights Council

 • The People of Tigray, both at home and in the diaspora

We, the undersigned sons and daughters of Tigray — along with our allies in the Eritrean diaspora, including members of the Brigade N’Hamedu  — declare the following:

In light of recent reports indicating covert or overt attempts to forge a political or military alliance between the TPLF-Debretsion faction (#TPLF-D) and Eritrean Shaebia (#PFDJ)— the very regime that waged war on Tigray and committed heinous atrocities against our people — we express our unequivocal rejection of any such alliance.

 

🛑 Why We Reject the TPLF-D and Shaebia Alliance #PFDJ

1. Historical Betrayal and War Crimes

The Eritrean regime, under Isaias Afwerki, invaded Tigray in November 2020 alongside the Ethiopian federal army. Together, they perpetrated mass killings, rape, looting, and the destruction of cultural and religious institutions. Aligning with Shaebia is a betrayal of our martyrs, survivors, and our collective memory.

2. No Mandate from the People

The TPLF-D faction does not possess a democratic or moral mandate to enter into any alliance on behalf of the Tigrayan people. Any such action, taken without public dialogue and institutional legitimacy, is illegitimate and unacceptable.

3. Violation of the Pretoria Peace Agreement

This proposed alliance contradicts the spirit and purpose of the 2022 Pretoria Agreement, which aimed to bring sustainable peace and healing to Tigray. Such a partnership risks reigniting hostilities and undoing the progress made toward recovery and reconciliation.

4. Moral and Political Incompatibility

Tigray’s values are rooted in dignity, justice, self-determination, and accountability. Shaebia represents authoritarianism, repression, and regional destabilization. Entering into any form of partnership with this regime is morally indefensible and politically destructive.

5. Risk of Renewed Conflict

This unholy alliance signals a potential move toward rearmament and renewed conflict—something the people of Tigray firmly reject. We are still healing from the devastation of war. Our future must be rooted in peace, not in reckless political ambition.

 

✊ Our Demands

1. Immediate Public Clarification

We demand an official, public declaration from both the TPLF-D faction and the Tigray Interim Administration rejecting any alliance with PFDJ.

2. Inclusive Political Transition

We call for an inclusive, democratic political process in Tigray—one that reflects the will of the people and rejects backroom dealings by unaccountable factions.

3. International Oversight

We urge the African Union, the United Nations, and other international guarantors of the Pretoria Agreement to investigate and prevent any political or military maneuver that endangers peace in Tigray.

4. Diaspora Mobilization

We call upon the global Tigrayan and Eritrean diaspora communities to organize peaceful demonstrations, media advocacy, and diplomatic outreach to expose and oppose this alliance.

We sign this petition not as partisans, but as citizens of conscience—survivors, youth, parents, and elders—who demand peace with justice and a leadership that serves the people, not its own ambitions.

“The blood of our martyrs will not be used to water the ambitions of the very forces that betrayed them.”
