but thing really important has happened today which is that the liberation army, the largest ethnic groupethiopia have declared that they have now struck an alliance. this transforms the situation because you now don't just have a mobilization by the central government who are trying to mobilize ethnic militia against them. you now have some of the ethnic groups themselves beginning to form an alternative alliance against the government. you have a fragmentation and a unification on different lines which is happening right now. as i said right at the beginning, this is a regional conflict. the troops are directly involved. there also have been sudanese forces who have been brought in because there have been clashes along the border. almost anything is possible. if anything is a serious situation where the collapse of ethiopia is a possibility, it is the last thing anybody wants because it will unleash forces that would be unsustainable in the region. but it is a possibility and one that we have to face given the tensions and ethnic rivalries and rifts that are rippling across ethiopia and

we know the liberation army was playing a role here. and took hold of the investigations taking place there. what we need to do is push our allies to work with us to conduct a thorough investigation. when the white house offered sign tests to help, they want to -- who would only allow dr. peter daszek, from eco health, who funneled funds from the nih through them to the wuhan lab. it's suspicious. >> trace: and peter daszek is an american scientist that wrote an open letter that said the lab leak theory is not effective. turns out he had ulterior motives. your committee would like to hear from mr. daszek. how important is he as a witness? >> sure. many of our members on the republican side would like to see him subpoenaed and have him brought to testify before our committee. the question is, why will the democrats not join us in getting answers to these questions. you know, 4 million people died worldwide, 600,000 here in the united states of america. what is also very suspicious and leads to us think there was a massive cover-up betwee
