I, along with diplomats from the Embassy, held a successful panel discussion with #Ethiopia|ns & people of 🇪🇹 origin residing in🇩🇯 regarding current Ethiopian affairs& efforts to enhance resource mobilization for the construction of the Ethiopian community school in #Djibouti
The Embassy, together with media practitioners from 3 #Ethiopia|n media houses, attended the opening ceremony of a regional media training on the adoption of gender-sensitive reporting to counter violent extremism organized by @_ICEPCVE #IGAD in #Djibouti.
As per timeline of #Ethiopa's peace deal, a meeting of military Commanders convened in Nairobi, where former Pres. Uhuru stated, “We started in Pretoria…now in Nairobi, we're very hopeful that next time we'll be in Mekelle & ultimately celebrate together in Addis Ababa.”
The naysayers of peace & conflict merchants don't have it in them to accept the olive branch extended as a mind that conceived wickedness cannot nurse peace & order. However, #Ethiopia|ns from all sides are satisfied w/ the peaceful resolution of the conflict.
#EthiopiaPrevailed
#Happening_Now: The Embassy has officially begun a 2-day briefing session for the diplomatic community in Djibouti, with the goal of providing a hands-on understanding of #CoHA, the progress made thus far & a path forward to reconstruct & rehabilitate conflict-affected regions.
The diplomatic breakthrough of the #AU-brokered peace deal was heralded on session 2 of #CoHA briefing to the diplomatic community based in #Djibouti. A thorough examination of the implementation & the seamless execution of duties in accordance with the agreement were addressed.
Delighted to welcome, Dr. Rowaid A., the newly appointed #Palestine Ambassador to #Djibouti, to my office. The Ambassador extended a heartwarming congratulation to the people and Gov't of #Ethiopia on the signing of #CoHA. We agreed to work together on issues of mutual concern.
As the briefing session on #CoHA resumes today at the Embassy, “African solutions to African problems” was on the agenda for the African diplomatic community in Djibouti. The powerful spirit of #PanAfricanism seen through the AU-led mediation was seen as a victory in & of itself.
Delighted to welcome, alongside Youssouf Moussa Dawaleh, President of the Djibouti Chamber of Commerce, an Ethiopian delegation led by Dr. Girma Amente, VP of the Oromia Regional State, who has arrived in Djibouti for a working visit on trade and investment.
The #Ethiopia|n Delegation, led by Dr. Girma Amente, and the president of the #Djibouti Chamber of Commerce, Youssouf Moussa Dawaleh, have officially launched a B2B and G2B forum aimed at strengthening the Ethio-Djibouti economic integration.
The B2B discussion that took place earlier today at the 🇩🇯 Chamber of Commerce has already yielded results as Coubeche distributors have decided to import fresh fruits & veg. from Oro fresh of #Ethiopia, leading to a visit to its warehouse & then a visit to CRC, Port of #Djibouti
Truly a pleasure exchanging views with H.E.@ymahmoudali, Minister of Foreign Affairs, this morning in an effort to cement the B2B & G2B discussions on economic integration that have been taking place during the multisectoral #Ethiopia|n delegation's working visit in #Djibouti.
Following a spirited discussion b/n the 🇪🇹delegation and H.E. @Ilyasdawaleh, Minister of Finance as well as Ahmed O., Governor of the Central Bank of🇩🇯, on the need for financial sector collaboration, Siinqee bank will soon emerge as 1 of the foreign banks operating in #Djibouti.
Over dinner at the Embassy tonight, in the presence of Excellencies Dr. Girma Amente, Mohamed Warsama, Minister of Trade, Youssouf D, Pres. of Chamber of Commerce, Djama Ibrahim, CEO of DMP, i appreciated the business comm. of both countries for the commitment shown so far.
It gives me great joy when i congratulate Hon. Solomon Areda Waktolla, Deputy Chief Justice of the Federal Supreme Court of #Ethiopia, on his appointment by #UNGA as a half-time judge of the #UN Dispute Tribunal (2023-2030). His expertise will be a significant asset to the UN.
In search of better prospects, Ethiopian Migrants embark on perilous journeys along the #Ethiopia-#Djibouti-#Yemen route. On the contrary, their journey on the eastern route is marked by high levels of abuse, trafficking, and exploitation.
