Dear Prime Minister, We are writing to express our great concern about the government's denial of publishing licenses to five independent Ethiopian journalists freed last year from prison. We are calling on you to use all your influence to remove such administrative restraints, which contradict the government's public assurances last year that former prisoners would be allowed to resume their work.https://cpj.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/simon_sig.jpg
