Echat (Amharic: ኢጭአት, acronym for የኢትዮጵያ ጭቁኖች አብዮታዊ ትግል, 'Ethiopian Oppressed People's Revolutionary Struggle') was a communist organization in Ethiopia.[1] The organization was active between 1975 and 1978.[2] The organization emerged from a split away from the All-Ethiopian Socialist Movement (MEISON).[1] Echat was initially allied with the Derg military junta, but later turned against it.[3]
