Ethiopia's Prime Minister Lauds BRICS Entry as "Major Diplomatic Victory"

Aug 24 , 2023



Technology, trade, military, and investment areas are the focus of partnership with the BRICS family, according to Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed (PhD), praising the spirit of the summit in Johannesburg as a major diplomatic victory.

“Although Ethiopians might not recognise it," he said in a brief statement. "The world has acknowledged the growth."

The overall GDP growth, policies towards green energy, and initiatives such as the Green Legacy have played a part in convincing the BRICS member states to add Ethiopia to the mix, according to the Prime Minister.

Following a separate meeting with the Chinese President Xi Jinping, Ethiopia was granted a year-long pause to service its debt to China. Abiy is attending a BRICS summit in South Africa and stated that Ethiopia’s selection to the economic group whose bargaining power is gaining popularity serves as "a pride and victory for Africa."
