Africa-Press – Ethiopia. Ethiopia has achieved significant progress over the last seven years across various sectors, particularly in enhancing the country’s geostrategic standing in the region through appropriate and lawful engagements, the Council of the Ruling Prosperity Party (PP), remarked.
This remark was made by PP council members in a statement released today, following their regular meeting that took place from August 6 to 8, 2025.
During this meeting, the Council members engaged in extensive discussions regarding global, continental, regional, and national issues of significant interest to the nation.
The PP Council’s statement outlines a strong commitment to peace and development across Ethiopia.
The statement indicated that the Council recognized the geopolitical developments occurring worldwide, which present both opportunities and challenges for Ethiopia. They deliberated thoroughly and established strategies to further safeguard the nation’s interests by addressing challenges and capitalizing on opportunities.
The political and economic condition of the country has changed as a result of overcoming these challenges, which has enabled the nation to mitigate its internal vulnerabilities.
According to the PP Council’s statement, Ethiopia has successfully altered its geostrategic position in the region through appropriate and lawful actions regarding the Nile.
Additionally, the country has elevated its natural and historical right to access the sea to an international level. In this manner, “we have taken more than one step towards restoring our geostrategic position in the Red Sea,” the statement underlined.
“Our political, social, and economic reforms are progressing successfully, undeterred by challenges. The challenges have been turned into national assets rather than remaining a cause of our internal vulnerabilities,” the statement underlined.
Members of the PP Council further stated that “on one hand, we have enhanced our country’s internal capacity through the institutional and macroeconomic reforms that we have implemented. On the other hand, we have successfully protected Ethiopia’s national interests by thoroughly comprehending the geopolitical landscape.”
