About FANO Movement:
- FANO’s main goal is to replace the existing anti-Ethiopia, anti-Amhara, ethnic-based apartheid system with an all-inclusive democratic governance that respects multi-party democracy, individual rights, the Rule of Law, and Human Rights. FANO envisions a modern political system suitable for the 21st century.
- FANO contends that the outdated and regressive ethnic-based apartheid system is responsible for ethnic cleansing, genocide, famine, civil war, leading to the loss of millions of lives, internal displacement of many, and unprecedented suffering—an unprecedented crisis in Ethiopian history.
- The FANO movement is rooted in the critical survival struggle of the Amhara people, driven by a steadfast determination to halt the ongoing systematic, persistent, and planned genocide, ethnic cleansing, and displacement affecting the Amhara people over the past 30 years.
- For the FANO movement, safeguarding the rich history, territorial integrity, and enduring national interests of Ethiopia is considered sacred and non-negotiable.
