    .@NickKristof: 100%. People in Tigray, Ethiopia are starving due to a man-made famine. The world must call on the @UN Security Council and @_AfricanUnion to #StopTigrayFamine. refugeesinternational.org/stop-tigray-fa…
    The starvation is not the result of drought or natural disaster. It is man-made. "To starve," in Tigray, is a transitive verb, and Ethiopia's leaders bear heavy responsibility.
