 Ethiopian parliament appoints FM as new president


The two houses of the Ethiopian parliament on Monday appointed Foreign Minister Taye Atske Selassie as the country's new president.


Selassie replaces Sahle-Work Zewde. This transition follows widespread speculation about President Sahle-Work’s potential resignation, fueled by a cryptic social media post she shared last week.


On Saturday, Sahle-Work posted a tweet that many viewed as an indication of her possible resignation. Quoting Mahmoud Ahmed’s song “Silence is My Answer,” she tweeted: “When a person feels sad and broken, when he has got no place to go, hope is his only hope.” This emotionally charged statement, coupled with reports from The Habesha suggesting that she might resign as early as next week, has ignited public debate and rumors about her future.


Sahle-Work’s tweet came during a period of increased public criticism, particularly concerning her perceived silence in addressing the ongoing conflicts in various parts of Ethiopia.
