-Messages from Ambassadors of China and Ethiopia
中國駐埃塞俄比亞大使談踐:
中國和埃塞俄比亞在各領(lǐng)域合作具有良好發(fā)展前景,雙方未來合作將以互利共贏、堅持正確義利觀和“真、實、親、誠”理念為方向。
兩國關(guān)系當(dāng)前處于歷史最好時期,是雙邊關(guān)系、中非關(guān)系和南南合作的楷模。兩國建立全面戰(zhàn)略合作伙伴關(guān)系以來,在政治、經(jīng)濟、安全、人文和黨際等領(lǐng)域保持了全面關(guān)系。
中埃在“一帶一路”倡議下開展了多領(lǐng)域合作。在基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施領(lǐng)域,中國企業(yè)建設(shè)的亞吉鐵路是埃塞經(jīng)濟大動脈。中方愿意同埃塞加深合作,將鐵路沿線進一步建設(shè)成為經(jīng)濟帶和經(jīng)濟走廊。
在人員流通方面,兩國人員往來密切,中國向埃塞俄比亞提供了許多留學(xué)和培訓(xùn)名額。兩國在資金流通方面合作也非常多。此外,埃塞擁有悠久的歷史,希望進一步加強與中國的旅游合作和文化溝通。
埃塞俄比亞駐華大使特肖梅-托加:
感謝中國在消除埃塞俄比亞貧困以及幫助我國經(jīng)濟轉(zhuǎn)型方面給予的支持,埃方會履行在中非合作論壇和“一帶一路”倡議下簽署的各項協(xié)議和承諾。
中國推出的運輸和物流基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施建設(shè)項目,為非洲國家所必需,可以使其增加出口,維持經(jīng)濟增長。
亞吉鐵路的修建很有必要。它打開了埃塞俄比亞通過吉布提進入海洋的通道。因此擁有1億人口的埃塞俄比亞可以成為國際貿(mào)易參與者之一。

It is necessary to build the Addis Ababa-Djibouti Railway, for itopens Ethiopia's access to the sea through Djibouti. Ethiopia, witha population of 100 million, can therefore become one of thelargest players in intemational trade.
