Turkey and Ethiopia signed two major economic agreements as President Recep Tayyip Erdogan visited Addis Ababa for the first time in 11 years, with Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed saying the talks aimed to relaunch economic and security cooperation against a backdrop of strong tensions between Ethiopia and Eritrea.
The visit came during a regional tour that also took the Turkish president to Saudi Arabia and Egypt. In Ethiopia, the trip marked the 100th anniversary of the establishment of official diplomatic relations between Ankara and Addis Ababa.
