Seven years ago, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed met with members of the Ethiopian community, including Tamagne Beyene, in Washington, D.C., United States. During that meeting, Tamagne Beyene spoke extensively in support of Abiy Ahmed. However, in later years, he distanced himself from the Prime Minister, citing differences in political ideology. Observers note that some of Tamagne Beyene’s earlier public statements later became points of controversy, as his position evolved over time. | Jirra Media/J

Landed in Addis Ababa a short while ago. Honoured by Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali’s gesture of welcoming me at the airport. Ethiopia is a nation with great history and vibrant culture. India and Ethiopia share deep civilisational ties. I look forward to engaging with the Ethiopian leadership to further strengthen our partnership in diverse areas. Abiy Ahmed Ali | Narendra Modi
