EU backs Ethiopia's expanding economic reform programme

The European Union has reaffirmed support for Ethiopia's economic reform agenda as Addis Ababa continues efforts to modernise the economy and attract investment.

Cooperation is expanding into digital infrastructure, renewable energy, public health, climate action, green transition projects and international trade.

The EU said progress has already been recorded during the first two years of the reform programme and signalled continued support for measures aimed at promoting more inclusive and sustainable economic growth.
