Aleksandr Lukashenko: Belarus expects to strengthen cooperation with Ethiopia in many areas

Minsk and the capital of this country, Addis Ababa, have long been linked by traditionally friendly relations. Their history is much longer than 30 years of diplomatic relations. Belarus considers this country as a gateway to Africa, which provides access to a large market. In turn, Ethiopia also intends to strengthen trade and economic cooperation with Belarus. The partners are interested in working together in agriculture (modernization is a priority), the textile industry and the mining industry.
