She is either misinformed or she is intentionally lying through her teeth. Read Huddleston’s threat to Meles below. Some one should remind Ms Jendai Frazier what the then Ambassador said at the time.

ADDIS ABABA (AFP) — The United States has barred the sale of Humvee military vehicles to Ethiopia after Addis Ababa used previously purchased Humvees to quell political protests in violence that killed at least 85 people, a senior US diplomat said.
Vicki Huddleston, the charge d’affairs at the US embassy in Addis Ababa, said the United States had been disappointed to see that several of 20 Humvees sold to Ethiopia in the past had been misused to “disperse demonstrations” and that future sales had been cancelled.
“(These vehicles) were here only for use in anti-terrorist activities,” she told reporters.
If you can not take a step when woyane kill,prisoned,disrespect your right as humanbing.Stand up for your right otherwise shut the fuck up.The heros ,they make sure thier enmy shit,the cowards dye taking a shit.the choice is yours.
these people in the state department and dept of defense serving in Ethiopia are all under the control of the mafia gang of melese and alamudi who is the front man to meet the weakness of these guys – to each according to his weaknesses. If the US and the British were not behind Meles he would have been hidding somewhere in the jungle of Burma and not terrorizing the people and destroying the nation. Time will soon come when the banda will be facing the crimes he has been commiting against the people of the horn of Africa –
I don’t think it makes any difference even if she was confronted with tough questions bcs it has to do with AMERICAN Foregign policy.She is there from washington.We Ethiopians have to do our job but atleast we are asking Americans not to interfir in our internal affair.we are not asking any help from them,we just saying leave us alone.
It was an intresting encounter.I learned two things:The retreat of the ambassador to cover up the grievious mistakes not by her but by the then Charge de affair.But one naked lie made by her was that the Humvees might have been bought from another country,which was refuted by the statement presented below.The stamina demonstrated by the prominent lawer and the other fello country men and women gives us additional strength.Overall,the encounter indicates that there could be a change of policy on the part of the current US administration which is a happy development for all of us!As the ambassador put it rightly,it is our duty to change the regime.
