Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, as well as being the first WHO director without a medical degree, also has a somewhat political background compared to his predecessors. On his online biography, the WHO lays out his qualifications as Ethiopian Minister of Health from 2002 to 2012, impressive stuff.

Aside from his medical credentials, Tedros happens to be a member of the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) which is an organisation about as peaceful as its name suggests. Founded as a communist revolutionary party that came to power in 1991, it led a guerrilla campaign against the Mengistu dictatorship and formed a coalition with two other ethnic parties after his exile.

Over time, the TPLF began to exert more and more influence over the other two parties. Most military generals and key leaders within the government are Tigray, including the Prime Minister who ruled the country for 21 years before his death. The Tigray represent only 6% of the population of Ethiopia, one of the major ethnic groups are the Amhara who mostly made up the Mengistu regime.

Favourable treatment under Megistu created a lot of resentment towards the Amhara from other ethnic groups like for example the Oromo. Tedros himself hails from the Tigray region and was a senior member of the party and became involved with the TPLF after the removal of Mengistu. The same party that in its 1968 manifesto (https://www.zehabesha.com/tplf-manifesto-amhara-was-labeled-as-1-enemy-of-tigray/) called the Amhrara people its ‘eternal enemy’. Just how senior was Tedros? Well this Ethiopian newspaper (http://www.tigraionline.com/cctplf.html) listed him as the 3rd most important member of the politbureau standing committee, which gives the impression he was more important than a simple medical administrator.

The TPLF was listed as a terrorist organisation by the US government in the 1990s, and is still listed as one (https://www.start.umd.edu/gtd/search/Results.aspx?perpetrator=2127) by the Global Terror Database because of its unfortunate habit of carrying out armed assaults in rural areas.

The Amhara people have reported systematic discrimination and human rights abuses by the current government. Humans Rights Watch in 2010 wrote a report (https://www.hrw.org/news/2010/10/19/ethiopia-donor-aid-supports-repression) on how aid in the form of food and fertiliser was withheld from local Amhara villagers because of their affiliations with the opposition party. Other forms of aid denial involved the refusal of emergency healthcare by ministry of health workers; the same ministry which was at the time being led by one Tedros Adhanom.

The Amhara People’s Union, an activist group based in Washington, has issued (https://ecadforum.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/APU_opposes_candidacy_of_Dr_TAG.pdf?x35370) many other accusations of human rights abuses against the TPLF led government, including noting that the birth rates in the Amhara region was far lower than those experienced in other regions. They noted at a session in Ethiopian parliament that, around 2 million Amhara were found to have “disappeared” from the population census.

Not content with denying aid to political dissidents, Tedros was also health minister at a time when the regime was accused of covering up epidemics. A cholera outbreak spread the region in 2007, infecting thousands in neighbouring countries. When it spread to Ethiopia, the government simply renamed the outbreak and called it Acute Watery Diarrhoea (AWD). International organisations were pressured (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2017/05/18/ethiopias-candidate-for-the-world-health-organization-doesnt-like-mentioning-a-certain-disease/) not to call it Cholera (despite the UN testing the infected and finding Cholera), and were pressured by government employees not to reveal the number of infected. Another stunning victory for the health minister.

The deadly famine which struck Ethiopia in the 1980s forever associated the country with the word, but it’s not entirely a thing of the past. The WHO itself after pages of gushing reports on how well Ethiopia’s health sector was doing, admitted in 2016 that at least 8.6 million people still needed food aid to survive, and that the situation had not improved at all for at least four years. So at the end of Tedros’ illustrious term in office he could boast a mere remaining 8% of the population who would be left to starve to death without foreign aid.

But after his shining accomplishments in health, Tedros had bigger fish to fry. In 2012 he was appointed foreign minister and there quickly followed a crackdown on journalists and government opponents in the country, and an attempt to extradite those who had fled to Yemen in exile. The two countries entered negotiations to track down and deport dissidents from Yemen and imprison them in Ethiopia. Tedros himself (https://ecadforum.com/2017/05/05/tedros-adhanom-played-a-key-role-in-kidnapping-of-prominent-dissident/) led these negotiations, there’s even a nice picture of the medical man during the talks with the Yemeni foreign minister.

One such case was a British citizen Andy Tsege who was arrested at Sana’a airport and twice given a death sentence in Ethiopia. This led to the involvement (https://www.gov.uk/government/news/foreign-secretary-concerned-over-detention-of-andargachew-tsege--2) of the British government who threatened denial of aid to Ethiopia unless he be granted asylum. Tedros responded that Tsege was “being treated very well. He even has a laptop, have you ever heard of a political prisoner with a laptop?” Andy of course, after his return to the UK told a somewhat different story of being tortured for days (https://www.untoldstoriesonline.com/prisons-and-human-dignity-in-ethiopia/) on end, alongside dozens of other prisoners.

One of the reasons perhaps that Tedros’ qualifications as foreign minister is absent from some of his online CVs, may be because of the mass protests that engulfed the country in 2016. The Ethiopian government a few years earlier had unveiled a plan (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/mar/21/ethiopia-centre-global-farmland-rush) to seize 1000 square miles of land to be requisitioned for investment. This also involved the forced relocation of 15000 people in the Oromia region, which the government said was good because where they lived they currently “lacked infrastructure”.

But the ingrates somehow didn’t appreciate this massive favour that the government was doing them, and mass protests broke out during a cultural celebration in 2016. The police responded at first with tear gas, and then later, with mass shootings. The violence and resulting stampede killed an estimated 500 people according to Human Rights Watch. The government then issued a state of emergency, arresting an estimated 70,000 people, and forced dozens of opposition journalists into exile.

Tedros himself got into a public spat (https://www.hrw.org/news/2016/11/04/open-letter-government-ethiopia) with Human Rights Watch after their presentation, firstly denying that the numbers were as high as they were, and then claiming that the police were unarmed, here’s a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2k8XE4GY4a4) of the police at the event. Being no expert myself I assume that Ethiopia must have found a way to develop assault-rifle shaped crowd control devices that are entirely non-lethal, truly miraculous stuff from the Foreign Ministry.

And so this is the noble figure that ascended to the role of director of the WHO in 2017. Not one to miss a chance to defend mass murderers, he previously argued (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-africa-icc-idUSBRE99A0YT20131011) against the ICC trial of Uhuru Kenyatta under whose government 1,300 had been killed after rigged elections. Not surprising then, that one of the first things Tedros did after taking the job, was to nominate (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/oct/22/robert-mugabe-removed-as-who-goodwill-ambassador-after-outcry) Robert Mugabe – thankfully now dead - as goodwill ambassador to the WHO; A man who ordered the killings of 20,000 people (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/may/19/mugabe-zimbabwe-gukurahundi-massacre-matabeleland) in Zimbabwe during the 1980s.

Tedros of course takes every chance he can to praise the good governance of China, and given the human rights record of the People’s Republic, it’s no wonder he likes them so much. From projects like media propaganda centres, mass relocations, and social credit style score cards, Ethiopia’s governance in many ways resembles a carbon copy of the Chinese authoritarian model. Complete with a one party state and focus on profit over human rights.

Ethiopia , until very recently, remained one of the world’s worst human rights violators, receiving a score of 19 out of 100 on the human freedom index for 2018, and a score of 150 out of 180 for freedom of the press. The government has remained in power since the takeover in 1991, and was seemingly so popular that it won more than one election by 100% of the vote.

So how did a man with a record like Tedros become director of the WHO? It’s quite simple really, the WHO has been riddled with scandal after scandal for some time now. Facing almost no rise in budgets during the 1990s, the WHO turned towards the corporate sector for additional funding, and by 2008, corporate donations made up 80% of the organisation’s budget.

According to (62. http://www.truthaboutpsychiatry.net/PrivateCompaniesTransformingWHO.pdf) health researcher Soniah Shah, the role that large drug companies played in shaping global health policy created a serious conflict of interest on the one hand to improve the companies’ public image, but on the other to protect their financial interests. This led to cases like lobbying to weaken patent laws for new drugs in India, and blocking laws in South Africa that attempted to make HIV treatment more accessible.

The serious misallocation of funds by the organization was made most apparent in 2016 when it was found that the WHO spent $200 million a year (https://apnews.com/1cf4791dc5c14b9299e0f532c75f63b2/AP-Exclusive:-Health-agency-spends-more-on-travel-than-AIDS) on travel expenses, not even

Page 8 of 23https://www.roughestimate.org/roughestimate/the-crimes-of-tedros-adhanom

including those paid for by the host country. Another absolutely damning report issued by the Associated Press, reported that WHO employees working to relieve the Cholera epidemic in Yemen had actually siphoned off the funds (64. https://apnews.com/dcf8914d99af49ef902c56c84823e30c) for officials. Some of these workers were later not even removed from their jobs.

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation played a large role in promoting Tedros (https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/library/magazine/home/20000416mag-foundation.html). After their large investments into healthcare programs in Ethiopia which Tedros had facilitated, the foundation was keen to promote similar programs on a global level and donated billions to the WHO towards this end.

The appointment of someone as deeply unqualified as Tedros owes much to the labyrinthine structure of the WHO’s appointment process. The director is selected by the executive board, who are in turn appointed by a rotating minority of the World Health Assembly who are made up of health ministers appointed by world governments. The WHO therefore has the same problem as many other global institutions, that its director is an appointee of an appointee of an appointee of someone who may have been elected legitimately. So by the time you get to the director, the democratic mandate has been so thinly stretched as to be almost meaningless.

The media of course portrayed Tedros as a saintly figure on a moral mission to cure the world of deadly diseases. A twitter campaign slogan ran with “it’s time for an African to lead the WHO”. Indeed, one only wishes it hadn’t been an African in a regime that had spent the last few years killing and resettling more Africans than almost any other.

Some outlets have pointed out that the director general has little power over actual policy in the WHO, this misses the point that the organization is accepted as a global authority on matters of health, and advises world governments. The

Page 9 of 23https://www.roughestimate.org/roughestimate/the-crimes-of-tedros-adhanom

mismanagement of the WHO through people like Tedros has totally exacerbated the global coronavirus pandemic. Not only did Tedros find every opportunity to praise the CCP’s handling of the crisis even as doctors were being arrested and people welded inside their homes; he also gave completely contradictory advice. First saying that countries should not restrict travel to and from China so as not to be discriminatory, and then chiding them for not doing enough to prepare. The virus was only named a pandemic a few days ago at the time of writing, after infecting 140 countries which is 70 more than it took for Swine flu to be declared a pandemic.

If there was ever an example of the failure of globalised institutions, the WHO is it. I’m not here to say that the organisation has not done any good in the world, but the sheer scale of its mismanagement means that it’s advice should not carry anywhere near the weight that it does. Instead of advising tech companies on how to censor information, it should be radically reformed or simply disbanded.

In a sane world, instead of leading a global organisation, Tedros and his cronies would be put on trial at the International Criminal Court, tried for his crimes, and if found guilty, should spend the rest of his life in prison.

Thanks for digging into this. Fortunately for Taiwan

!

they are excludedfrom WHO. They have done an amazing job with handling the virus byusing their own data and making their own decisions. They also learnedfrom the first SARS epidemic and were meticulously prepared. Here in theWest, people are still listening to this disorganized mess called WHO. IFully agree with your last paragraph. — Stay Safe, and keep washing thosehands. Time for me to make washable face masks.

Thank you! I thought I recognized this guy. I kept saying he lookedfamiliar. YES. He does. It's been a while but like the rest of the globe'spolitical liars, banksters and murderers of humanity he's right in themiddle of the C-19 spread controlling it for the elitists. He's just an IdiAmin retread. Anyone remember him? He canalized his enemies andserved them at State dinners. Evil.

The virus is real. However, look at the evidence. It's been released onto thepublic with a specific intent--take down the world's economy and reset it tothe most profitable model for the Black Hand families and their toadies atthe UN. The UN toadies couldn't sell their climate change propaganda tothe West wholesale so they went to their usual tact of murdering the publicto create fear. The UN wants control of the world's resources, clearly statedin Agenda 2030. Economically destroyed sovereign nations will give themwhat they want because they will feel that they have no other choice. Isscreaming, sign carrying women and crying, blamer children could not sellclimate change then... That portion of their program was a last ditch effortto push the UN agenda before they began murdering the public outrightand blaming it on missteps, accidents, China, whatever...

It's too obvious to miss if you know anything about the history of war. THISis war against humanity. Will humanity stand-up or surrender?

Great Article Very horrible news but explains so much Hopefully someonegit screenshots or texts of all of the links & sources because in today’s worldinternet gets scrubbed quickly

What no torturers for the CV human right's council? All these worldgovernment organizations do nothing but take our money. They are ascorrupt as the third world governments who appoint their representatives.

Typical.

Tedros Adhanom keep supporting to China because he accepts a bribe fromChina. Taiwanese government wrote the letter to WHO to remind that theviruses are passed from person to person last December,but TedrosAdhanom ignored it. He totally has responsibility for this pandemic.

I never understood how he bacame the leaderWhat supprice me more is that a former terrorist can get support from ourgoverment and most country in EuropeSo far only Japan, USA and Italy speak about this in negative terms

John God bless your exposing Dr Tedros and his Albanian CommunistTigray people's Liberation Front, TPLF. TPLF which Dr Tedros is aPolitburo of the Communist Party of TPLF has committed an unimaginable

crimes on Ethiopian people in the past 27 years. Ethiopian people aredemanding Dr Tedros and other other TPLF top leaders to be Tried forCrimes Against Humanity. Just look at this Al jazeera report how TPLFpunished Amhara people while Dr Tedros was minster of healthy.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHs8uNuSguw

We must recommend that a Doctor from Taiwan will take over W.H.O.director. Mr. Tedros don't have good credential.

He's also a puppet of Bill Gates who can't even stop Viruses in Win 95.Never trust his vaccines that have failed globally.

John you are the man

I do not disagree with the substance of your report. However, in order tofurther pillory Tedros you continue to push two false narratives. The viral-AIDS narrative has been exhaustively and definitively exposed as false byProfessor Peter Duesberg in his book Inventing the AIDS Virus (1996). It isunconscionable to continue to speak as if a virus, HIV, is the cause of AIDS.Secondly there is no scientific evidence that SARS Cov-2 exists. The WHOis no more guilty of making this pandemic worse than any of the countriesthat have been only too ready to sign on to this latest fraudulent viralnarrative.

Although your narration about the crimes Tedros and his TPLF comradesdid in Ethiopia is true, your article suffers from shameless biasedness toonly the Amhara cause. You didn't even mention the fact about the Oromostruggle that evicted the TPLF from power. You did not say anything aboutwhere the widespread protests started and the bitter sacrifice paid to getthe TPLF evicted from power. You seem you intentionally omitted the factthat the Oromo people who are the largest nation in Ethiopia were the most

victims under the TPLF (Tedros) regime at least according to HRW andAmnesty International reports of the time. It sounds you are biasedlyinformed by some Amhara chauvinists and did not make your owninvestigation to balance your article before your writing. Maybe youintended to please selectively the Amhara group in Ethiopia as if they arethe major victims of the TPLF regime.

Amhara in Ethiopia are less affected by TPLF, however shamlessly theauthour of the article put Amhara on the front picture. Amharas struggle inEthiopia is not for equality and freedom, their struggle is to grab Power andrepeat their brutal past history. In short i would like to suggest to theauthor to correct his narratives.

Omg John Martin, I assume you are chauvinist Amhara with psedoname.You are VERY prejudised and serial liar. Why could Oromos resentAmharas as both were under subjugation of TPLF??

Dear John, the Oromo people in ethiopia have bitterly waged struggleagainst the TPLF tyranny in which Dr Tedros has been a member.The Oromo has also expressed his opinion during the campaign for electionof WHO leader. But it was know that such voices were ignored and worldpowers gave him the support, same way they awarded the nobel peace prizeto the new dictator in our country.

Anyway, since we have already overthrown the TPLF regime (though still anew tyranny group is emerging) , we now suggest Dr Tedros to be evaluatedon his mere performance of his professional duty.

Dear John It's all biased information it seems like you gave a responsibilityto a chauvinistic Amhara pupil to cook for youThe first paragraph will indicate it's mind set "The Tigray represent only6% of the population of Ethiopia, one of the major ethnic groups are theAmhara who mostly made up the Mengistu regime." The writer washesitant to mention the reality that the oromos are the majority and themost marginalized etnic group under the TPLF rules for both what youmentioned health related issues under the Tedros Adhanom ruleHowever as we can understand clearly

$

the writer wants to forcefullydivert the all aspects to his own room ....If you have a good editers in Chief I would not happen

Oromo are the victim of Ethiopian empire for 150 years. Untill 1991 Amaraled government did crimes against the nations and nationalities. Esp.Oromo were affected mostly by brutal Amara regime. When Amara regimewas overthrown TPLF came to power they continued the same policy ofmarginalization against Oromo. The Oromo protest overthrow the TPLFregime in 2017. Now the old Amara regime are trying hard to smeareverything and want go back to pre 1991 subjugation which willdisintegrate Ethiopia with the help of propoganda using people like you.TPLF and the current WHO were criminal. You got the truth. However doyour reseach better.

You know, there's a problem with your article. You make it seem as if thepandemic isn't a fraud and the virus is real. From near the end: "The viruswas only named a pandemic a few days ago at the time of writing, afterinfecting 140 countries which is 70 more than it took for Swine flu to bedeclared a pandemic." So, Tedros is to blame because he underestimatedthe virus? Because he didn't act before? Doesn't that mean that what theWorld Health Organization is doing now is accurate?
