The Ethiopian government has reiterated its readiness to strengthen its long-standing relations with India on the basis of mutual benefit and interest in attracting investors from the South Asian country, said an official source.

Ethiopia’s Ambassador to New Delhi Demeke Atnafu held talks with President and CEO of the Indian Chamber of Commerce for Sustainable Development and External Affairs Abhinay Balyan on trade and investment opportunities in Ethiopia, as reported by Prensa Latina, a partner of TV BRICS.

Atnafu outlined his government’s efforts to make the African country a better place for foreign investors through significant reforms in foreign direct investment policy and business environment.

Balian, for his part, expressed the chamber’s willingness to work with the Addis Ababa Embassy to promote such business and investment opportunities through a series of seminars in India.
