Ethiopia\u2019s Pivot from Institutionalised Regional Diplomacy to Populist Peacemaking: Abiy Ahmed\u2019s 2019 Khartoum Peace Initiative and Its Impact on Ethiopia-Sudan Relations<\/strong><\/p>\n

Author:<\/strong> Eliab Taye<\/p>\n

This paper analyses the mediation initiative launched by Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed in Sudan in June 2019, which facilitated political dialogue between the country\u2019s soldiers and civilians. In the short term, it paved the way to a celebrated breakthrough. It also marked a significant step in the emergence of a new paradigm for Ethiopian diplomacy, based on advancing personalised foreign policymaking and marginalising longstanding foreign policy principles and institutions. The paper uses the concept of \u201cpopulist peacemaking\u201d to frame this pivot and analyses its impact on the relations between Ethiopia and Sudan.<\/p>\n
