A nation of 120M cannot remain a “geographical prisoner.” Ethiopia’s quest for sea access is fair, lawful, and peaceful — rooted in dialogue, cooperation, and Africa’s shared future. Development needs connectivity, and connectivity needs the sea. @AbiyAhmedAli#AUSummit#Ethiopia
Today, we officially inaugurated the King Tekle Haymanot Airport, which the people of Debre Markos and the surrounding communities had eagerly awaited for many years. The airport, which had been out of service for nearly 30 years, has now been modernized, upgraded to a higher standard, and rebuilt.
Constructed with a 2,400-meter-long and 30-meter-wide runway, the airport now has the capacity to accommodate large passenger and cargo aircraft such as the Q400 and B737. The commencement of operations at this airport will significantly stimulate trade, investment, and tourism in the area, opening a new chapter for the economic growth of the area and our country as a whole.
By turning challenges into opportunities, we will continue to demonstrate our commitment through action—responding step by step to our people’s development needs and completing the mega projects we have launched with both quality and speed so they can be delivered for public use.
The people of Ethiopia are an extraordinary and remarkable people. Other than the Creator, who can truly know and assess our people in their entirety? Through this year’s election, Ethiopians have once again shown the world that they are a people with a rich culture, deep patriotism, and the ability to safeguard the common good.
On this historic day:
* Citizens who were not intimidated by the cold and darkness of the night,
* Who were not deterred by the midday sun or sudden rain,
* Whom weddings, funerals, childbirth, and other social obligations did not prevent from participating,
* Who were not wearied by long lines,
* Whose physical disabilities did not stop them from casting their vote,
* Those whose illness and old age did not prevent from witnessing the hope of their country,
* Who were not exhausted by carrying their infant children; the future inheritors of the nation,
* And above all, whom the shouting and threats of enemies could not intimidate or stop;
The perseverance you demonstrated amid many challenges and hardships, against all odds, was a contribution made for democracy and for the very survival of the nation. For this, you deserve heartfelt gratitude.
It is a privilege to serve such a people. Therefore, may those who have been elected honor the trust placed in them and serve this people, with integrity and sincerity! A people who have paid a great price for the democratic system. May you be worthy of that responsibility.
Congrats indeed for the tremendous work done.
Ethiopia is acknowledged as a late entrant in the digital identity space but has rapidly emerged as an innovator, scaling from zero to over #43million registrations in a short time and contributing to evolving digital identity models.
Foreign Minister Gedion Timothewos today engaged with researchers and area specialists from various leading thinktanks at the Hudson Institute.
During the roundtable, the Minister presented Ethiopia's economic growth and prosperity model alongside the country's political outlook. He also briefed participants on the latest regional developments and geopolitical dynamics shaping the Horn of Africa.
Through an in-depth question and answer session and discussions, Minister Gedion underscored that peace, stability, and security are the cornerstones of Ethiopia’s vision—essential foundations for advancing all-round prosperity for both Ethiopia and the wider region.
@AbiyAhmedAli, AU Champion of AI and Digital Health. H.E. foresaw the importance and impact of AI for Africa—and especially for Ethiopia—over a decade ago, during his tenure as Director General of the Science and Technology Information Center. I've seen this when it began.
Ethiopia’s march toward prosperity is accelerating—validated by the latest IMF projections. Driven by ambition and resilience, Ethiopia’s rise is unstoppable.
