Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence

Budget 2024, Official Development Assistance, COP28 and Ongoing Humanitarian Situations: Dóchas

Ms Finola Finnan:

I have just come back recently from Ethiopia, where a rather fragile peace agreement is in place. Again, we have seen the population there greatly traumatised. They were cut off for some time, and there were large numbers of deaths. While I was there, memorial services were held for people who had died during the conflict. It is a fragile peace. Mr. MacSorley might still be online and be able to talk to the wider humanitarian situation.
