The US envoy is expected to provide U.S. support toward forging a diplomatic resolution to issues related to the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) that would achieve the interests of all parties and contribute to a more peaceful and prosperous region. In Addis Ababa, Ambassador Hammer will also consult with the African Union, under whose auspices GERD talks occur. He is also expected to review the progress of humanitarian assistance, accountability for human rights violations and abuses, and efforts to advance peace talks between the Ethiopian government and Tigrayan authorities.
