    Interactions, investments increase Turkish-Ethiopian relations

    (MENAFN)

    Over many years the noncoastal country in the Horn of Africa Ethiopia has become a primary target for Turkish investors in the continent.

    As stated by the Ethiopian Investment Commission, Turkey is the second-biggest investor in the country with an investment capital of 2.5 billion U.S. dollars.

    The people-to-people interactions and changing perceptions have led Turkish companies to employ 30,000 Ethiopians, as both countries have successfully built multi-faceted ties.

    Speaking to Anadolu Agency, Suleyman Aragaw, the owner of Istanbul Addis stated that "Ethiopia's past global perception that portrayed it as the poor starving nation was on top in the minds of some Turkish people. On the other hand, Ethiopians used to perceive Turkey as a closed religiously conservative nation."

    Adem Kamil, a renowned Islamic scholar, told Anadolu Agency that "over these years, I met people, exchanged views, and befriended many Turkish citizens from all walks of life. They respect and love Ethiopia. This is one of the widely held public perceptions about Turkish people in Ethiopia."
