Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>Ethiopia has historical, geographical and economical rights to demand access to sea and alternative ports, Arbaminch University scholars said.<\/p>\n

Arbaminch University scholars held a panel discussion under the theme \u201cAccess to Sea, Path to Development\u201d today.<\/p>\n

On the occasion, Arbaminch University President, Damitew Darza stressed the need to intensify diplomatic efforts to realize Ethiopia\u2019s interest.<\/p>\n

He also underlined the importance of strong stance among all Ethiopians, including scholars, on the need to have access to the sea and alternative ports.<\/p>\n

Noting that Ethiopia had enjoyed its own sea outlets, he said geopolitical instability of the region forced the country to loss its benefits.<\/p>\n

However, the scholar added that Ethiopia has historical, geographical and economical rights to demand for access to sea and alternative ports.<\/p>\n

Ethiopia should pursue all available peaceful mechanisms with a view to realizing its interest in the region, the president underscored, stressing the need to carry out intensive diplomatic efforts.<\/p>\n

A scholar in hydrology, Abdela Kemal said depriving a country with a population of 120 million sea access is injustice.<\/p>\n

As a result, it has been encountering challenges in its economic development due to the high cost of port services.<\/p>\n

Noting that Ethiopia\u2019s population is expected to double after 30 years, the scholar pointed out the urgency of response to the nation\u2019s quest for access to sea.<\/p>\n

He urged scholars to play their role in attaining the country\u2019s interests.<\/p>\n

At the panel, the scholars also discussed wide ranging issues, including the importance of shared development in the region, Ethiopia\u2019s quest for access to sea in relation to international laws, geopolitical and foreign relations.<\/p>\n
