Addis Ababa, June 8, 2024.- Ethiopia and Cuba’s diplomatic relations started 49 years ago and kept on growing overcoming many difficulties. The very reason for the strong relations between the two countries that are located far away from each other is that the Cubans devotedly stood by the side of Ethiopia and sent an army to help Ethiopians fend off foreign aggression. Even after the wounding of the war, Ethiopia and Cuba cemented their cooperation in the fields of health, education … etc. Accordingly, many thousands of Ethiopians, including those who were orphaned by the war were allowed to study various fields of education in Cuba. These students have formed a large Ethio-Cuban Community that is now the backbone of the strong diplomatic and people-to-people relations that thrived for almost half a century and is still nascent.
