Ethiopia announces interim government in Tigray, aims for polls in six months
Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed on Friday announced the appointment of an interim administration to prepare elections in the northern Tigray region previously controlled by the Tigray People's Liberation Front that has clashed with government forces since September.
What the coverage shows
France 24 and Al Jazeera both frame the story around Ethiopia’s announcement of an interim administration in Tigray and a six-month election timetable. France 24 focuses on the appointment itself and identifies the interim body as preparing elections in the region. Al Jazeera alone adds the wording about the military pushing back a TPLF uprising and describes Abiy Ahmed as promising free elections.
