Africa-Press<\/a> – Ethiopia<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Addis Ababa,January 25\/2021(ENA)The US government has extended over 3 billion USD over the past three years in support of Ethiopia\u2019s own governance, development, and humanitarian priorities, the outgoing U.S. Ambassador to Ethiopia Michael Raynor disclosed.<\/p>\n

In his media roundtable discussion on Monday, ambassador Raynor said Ethiopia is a key strategic partner to the US and one of its oldest friends in Africa or anywhere.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe strength and success of Ethiopia \u2013 and its people \u2013 fully align with the United States\u2019 interests as well,\u201d he underlined.<\/p>\n

Hence, he said the US government has provided financial and technical assistance to the social and economic development of Ethiopia during the past three years of his term as an ambassador, he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve brought well over 3 billion dollars in U.S. government resources into Ethiopia during that time, in support of Ethiopia\u2019s own governance, development, and humanitarian priorities. That\u2019s a lot of money, and our two countries have done a lot of good with it.\u201d<\/p>\n

US has also expanded economic growth opportunities \u2013 from helping farmers boost their agricultural output, to supporting young entrepreneurs to build their own futures while creating jobs for others, to facilitating many millions of dollars in U.S. commercial investments in Ethiopia, the ambassador indicated.<\/p>\n

According to the ambassador, for COVID-19 specifically, the US government brought in over 180 million dollars in additional U.S. government resources to help Ethiopia manage the health, economic, and humanitarian challenges of the pandemic.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd we remain the top supporter \u2013 at well over 200 million dollars \u2013 of Ethiopia\u2019s efforts to transition toward true democracy, social justice, and economic opportunity, which are the essential ingredients for long-term, durable peace and stability as well,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The ambassador has also mentioned current challenges, opportunities, U.S. investments in different sectors, the significance of media, and expressed his hope Ethiopia would succeed overcoming all challenges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
