Politically, the year was marked by preparations for the fifth general elections, scheduled for May 2015. So-called ‘right-wing multinational’ groups failed to create a broad coalition to counter the ruling eprdf and appeared weakened by internal struggles (doubtless exploited by the eprdf) in the run-up to the elections.
