Ethiopian patriots’ sacrifices ended five years of Fascist occupation and demonstrate Ethiopia’s firm commitment to ensuring sovereignty. Ethiopian Patriots’ Victory Day signifies the success and valor of those who marched and died for their motherland.
The victory of Ethiopian heroes over fascism is a powerful testament that colonial ideologies can be overcome through determined resistance. To sustain Ethiopia’s sovereignty and ensure development, the current generation should embody the dedication and heroism of these patriots.
Ethiopia focuses on the values of resilience and reconciliation. On one hand, the country offers peace to those who cooperate; on the other, it delivers “just punishment” to those who threaten it. Ethiopians should prioritize peace over divisive politics. The nation’s heroic struggle was rooted in a fierce desire for freedom.
