At the time of instability in the Horn of Africa, Ethiopia's response remains absolutely critical, she stated. The Ethiopian government is working closely with humanitarian actors including international organizations... their role in escaping migrates from the violence in Sudan is valuable. Totally, Ethiopia hosts more than 1.1 million refugees, according to her statement.Speaking about refugees in Chad, she stressed that the U.S. appreciates Chad as it has embraced immense challenges while welcoming refugees most recently... half million refugees and over 100,000 returnees arrived in a year in Chad.
