Meles holds talks with Egyptian PM

Ethiopian news, 13, 2011
The talks between the two premiers were focused on enhancing bilateral relations.

Mr. Sharaf told Meles on the occasion that henceforth, Egypt is set to play a positive role on fair utilization of River Nile.

He said Egypt is not against the dam project that Ethiopia has initiated on the Nile.

The move that was taken by Egypt’s former leaders to prevent Ethiopia from getting support for its Nile-related projects was flawed, he added.

Meles for his part reassured Mr. Sharaf of Ethiopia’s readiness as it used to be to work in partnership with Egypt.

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hailemariam Desalegn warmly welcomed the Egyptian PM, who is on a two-day official visit in Ethiopia, on his arrival at the Addis Ababa bole International Airport late Thursday.

He told journalists on arrival a new chapter has been opened for Ethiopia and Egypt to work in partnership for mutual development.
