Ethiopians all around the world are living in exile, looking for hope, opportunity, and freedom. We endure the harsh realities of living in exile to educate, work, and to be independent so that we can contribute our share to help our family, and the people of our country. And I am sure that is what the good citizens of the world want to see.
What would you feel if you were told that you are going to be deported along with your family because you are a “ Second Citizen ”, what would you do?
I am sure if the Swiss people new about that they would have demonstrated against it.
Currently the situation in Ethiopia is getting worse every day, and who knows what is going to happen in the near future.
Deporting the Ethiopians at this time is like throwing them in the fire to be burned.
The world is for us to live in, but cruel intentions and authorities that think they are above GOD make it impossible for the good people to live in peace. Ethiopians are not trouble makers, but peace lovers. You can see it at your workplace, and in your community.
Swiss People, Pleas hear their voices, as they fight to stay alive in your country.
Universal Human Rights should be respected by Swiss Authorities. Returning Ethiopian Asylum seekers by force is inhuman and clearly shows which side of humanity is the Swiss government standing.
It would be humane to leave Ethiopian asylum seekers in Switzerland alone at this moment when the fate of Ethiopia to stand as a nation is under question.
The weyane regime proved to the international community his rejection to demmocracy and rule of law. It is sad to hear that the Swiz government allies with weyane.
It should be understood that deporting Ethiopians is not different from sending Jews to the Naazi gas chamber
I urge the swiz government to reconsider its action and refrain from deporting Ethiopians.
The money you are going to give to the dictators are going to be used to buy more arms or to be deposited in their personal account, you are supporting dictators not Ethiopians.
I don't understand how on earth a regime how massacared 40 people in one day tend to stretch his hands to collect people living abroad or they have asked a RANSAM in return at the final day of their stay on power
To Whom It may Concern.
Ethiopia is larger than France, Germany and Switzerland put together. It has over 70 million inhabitants out of whom 7 or 8 million spend the night with an empty belly. The so called Government in Power led by a so called Tigray Liberation Front continues to beg for food.It has been in power for the past 14 years and has never attempted to reform its program and its tribalistic activities. The country is led by tribalists fro the Tigray region who are scared of being overpowered by the more sizable, robust and potentially rich people of Amhara, Gurage, Oromo, Siodama etc. They are secterian, they do not have respect for human rights and as minorities,they are scared of instituting and upholding process as recently witnessed in the processing of the so called May 15 Democratic Elections. So we advise all those who are bent to forcefully return refugees to hold on fora while. When situations change and Democracy prevails no Ethiopian would wish to spend even a night outside his beautiful country, which with the right kind of Governance and Administration could once again seize to be a land of wretched beggars but a lan of bounty and a land of Milk and Honey. May God Bless all those who support and provide refugee to all those Ethiopians spread around the world in search of food, safety and security! God Bless Ethiopia!

Do not trust the government in Ethiopia.
Thanks a lot for your cooperation

I heard that your government made an agreement with the EPRDF government in Ethiopia to send many asylum seekers from Switzerland to Ethiopia. As you know these Ethiopians asked for political asyslum in your democratic country to save their lives. As far as I know their cases is purely poitically motivated, and if they will be sent back home their lives will be endangered. As a democratic government you have the moral and legal obligation to save the lives of these young people. If you send them back you should know the consequences. If you do not have any information about Ethiopia it is very important to be informed first of all before you have deciede to take such measure. We have now a situation which is very volatile and the regime in Ethiopia is doing everything possible to crack down all potential forces whom it thinks it will endenger its power. The election of may 15, 2005 proved that the regime does not have any political legitimation in Ethiopia. As a result of this it tries to destroy all the forces which are against it. Especially those Ethiopians who are living abroad are being watched carefully. In the last two months over 90% of Ethiopians who are living abroad have demonstrated against the regime because it has rigged the election results. I therefore appeal to you not to send those Ethiopians who have asked for political asyslum in your country.
Thanks in advance for your sincere cooperation.
Please do not send those ethiopians who have been hiding from this monsters .I'ts no different than giveing them to a lion who has been hugry for a year .Please don't???
AT the same time for all my brothers and sisters all over the world let's do the same to other ethiopians in the united states.They have been in detantion center saffering for so long .And most of them are subjected to deportaion .Let our voic be Heard May God help us!!
Swiss government, If you deport these innocent people, be sure that they will be called "unused labour" and be in Jail. So please have little humanity.
I ask the swiss authorities to be human to Ethiopian asylum seeker.
The Swiss had good culture and reputation.
People with good culture will not do harm.
Plese hulp the Ethiopian not EPDRF.
I wolld like to appeal on behalf of ethiopians in swiss ethiopia is not a safe place to return too so pleas do not send ppl back home thanx God bless ethiopia
As it is described above it is really inhuman descion taken by the Swistzerland government.If they are really humans & democrats they must stop such action ,& it is a violation of human rights.If not no difference B/n the Switzerland gov.&the EPRDF.Deporting now means = killing them.
I strongly condemn the deportation of all Ethiopians ,rather the Switzzerland gov.must take action first that the Ruling party /EPRDF to step down ,because on the last may 15 election have totally deafted,and then they can deal about.
Please consider the Ethiopian refugees in switherland. Our brothers and sisters are suffering out there with no gurantee of living in a country where they stayed for the past five to ten years.
I want to ask the human righjt organaization it is not fare to abandon the assailem sikers and meles rejim will revange them if they come here. even we all the ethiopian people wants to ask to take out of this death
