Ethiopian PM Arrives in South Korea for Official Visit

Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and First Lady Zinash Tayachew have arrived in Seoul, South Korea, for an official visit. According to the Office of the Prime Minister, the Ethiopian leader is accompanied by a ministerial delegation and will participate in the Korea-Africa Summit.

The summit aims to strengthen ties between Korea and African nations, focusing on economic cooperation, technological exchange, and development strategies. Detailed deliberations from the summit will be reported as the event progresses.

The visit has garnered attention on social media, with users expressing their hopes for the outcomes.

On X, Aleltu Fenuma (@FenumaAleltu) commented, “I hope Dr. Abiy will learn from the survival of South Koreans. Once upon a time, South Korea was a poor country; now it’s one of the G20 countries. Dr. Abiy should learn how and stop worrying about the sheny or the fanos because they don’t have visions. Yes, it’s a lot to learn from S. Korea.”
