Going forward

China-Ethiopia partnership

互信共榮，合力同輝！

中國與埃塞，亞非兩大文明古國，一個(gè)善于奔跑、一個(gè)極富耐力，在漫長的歷史長河中，兩國人民經(jīng)過艱苦卓絕的努力，使兩國間的合作不斷加深，領(lǐng)域不斷擴(kuò)展。

1964年，中華人民共和國首任總理周恩來首次訪問非洲選擇了埃塞俄比亞，受到埃塞政府和人民的熱情歡迎，為兩國友好關(guān)系拉開了大幕;1970年，中國與埃塞俄比亞正式建交，中埃關(guān)系開啟了新的篇章;

2003年，中國與埃塞俄比亞建立全面合作伙伴關(guān)系，中埃合作自此進(jìn)入快車道，各領(lǐng)域友好互利合作成果豐碩。

世紀(jì)交替，歲月流轉(zhuǎn)。進(jìn)入新的歷史階段，這樣的合作隨著一場場外交活動(dòng)不斷加碼。2013年，中國國家主席習(xí)近平訪非期間專門同埃塞俄比亞總理舉行會(huì)晤。緊接著，2014年中國國務(wù)院總理李克強(qiáng)也將埃塞俄比亞作為任內(nèi)首次非洲之行的首站。2018年，中非合作論壇北京峰會(huì)將兩國合作推向新的高度。

這樣的合作更隨著“一帶一路”建設(shè)的推進(jìn)不斷升級(jí)，在兩國發(fā)展戰(zhàn)略的對(duì)接上，雙方實(shí)現(xiàn)了優(yōu)勢互補(bǔ)、合作共贏。

這樣的合作，在亞吉鐵路、亞的斯亞貝巴城市輕軌等基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施領(lǐng)域;在東方工業(yè)園、阿瓦薩工業(yè)園、克林圖工業(yè)園等經(jīng)濟(jì)領(lǐng)域;在教育合作、醫(yī)療救助等民生領(lǐng)域：在文化交流、旅游互補(bǔ)等合作領(lǐng)域不斷地落地落實(shí)中，夯實(shí)著兩國合作的地基。

這樣的合作，基于過往的友好，更基于今天的攜手。中埃合作，向著更美好的未來，奔跑吧！
