Hayat arkadaşımla tanıştığım, yükseköğrenimimi (doktora dâhil) tamamladığım, kariyer sahibi olduğum ikinci evim,
Türkiye’m!
İki evim arasındaki ilişkinin daha güçlü olması için en ufak bir katkım olabilirse, bunu görev ve borç bilirim.
Tekrar hoş geldiniz! Sayın @RTErdogan

As I occasionally freelance for Türkiye’s @Anadolu and other outlets, I have been engaged in following various diplomatic activities across #Ethiopia, including the AU summit and higher official visits to the country…
… Everyone rightfully came with their own pressing agenda.
And I witnessed Ethiopia, not only during the Prime Minister @AbiyAhmedAli’s speech but also during briefings, ceremonies, and bilateral engagements, underscoring its narratives.
