Ethiopia, Qatar resume diplomatic ties

Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassim Bin Jabar al-Thani (L) and his Ethiopian counterpart Hailemariam Desalegn (R) speak during a press conference at the Addis Ababa’s Presidential Palace on November 5, 2012. Qatar and Ethiopia resumed ties on November 5, 2012 with the signing of several economic and diplomatic agreements following a meeting between the two presidents in the Ethiopian capital. The two countries fell out in 2008, when Ethiopia’s late Prime Minister Meles Zenawi accused the Gulf Arab state of destabilizing the Horn of Africa by supporting armed opposition groups in the region, including in Ethiopia’s arch-foe Eritrea.

Ethiopia, Qatar resume diplomatic ties

Two countries fell out in 2008 when Doha was accused of destabilising Horn of Africa

Addis Ababa: Ethiopia and Qatar have resumed diplomatic and economic ties, the prime ministers of both countries said on Monday, ending a four-year row over claims that the Gulf state was backing opposition groups in the Horn of Africa.

“We are in a time where we can flourish and strengthen our relationship and our relationship is based on mutual trust as well as a good heart,” Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn told reporters after meeting his Qatari counterpart in Addis Ababa.

Now we want to continue with this relationship for the future, he added.
The two countries fell out in 2008, when Ethiopia’s late Prime Minister Meles Zenawi accused the Gulf state of destabilizing the Horn of Africa by supporting armed opposition groups in the region, including in Ethiopia’s arch-foe Eritrea.

Hailemariam said the two countries would work together to boost economic ties, including allowing Qatari investors into Ethiopia, and would “work very closely” with Qatar to promote peace and security in the region.
Qatar Prime Minister Shaikh Hamad Bin Jasem Al Thani said security was a priority for development in the Horn of Africa.

“We believe peace brings development, and these countries in this part of the world need a lot of development,” he said, adding that the high-level meeting between both countries was agreed when he met with Meles in February.
The Ministers of Finance and Foreign Affairs from both countries signed a series of bilateral agreements after the two leaders met.

Ethiopia’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Dina Mufti said ties had been rekindled between the countries because they felt “we would have mutual benefit if we restore out relations”.
“We have sorted out our differences ... It’s water under the bridge, it is something that we have sorted out, we are looking forward now,” he said.

Eritrea broke away from Ethiopia and won independence in 1993 after a 30-year struggle. The two countries fought a border war in 1998-2000, which left at least 70,000 people dead.

With an official growth rate of 11 per cent, Ethiopia has one of the fastest growing economies in Africa and is luring foreign investors to boost its economy further, with the aim of achieving middle income status by 2025.

Since meless has gone:
1) We have a new pm, ha ha
2) Peace talk has begun
3) Isayas is trying to show the bad guy was meless or has he other choice? But everybody knows that isayas is hybrid of snake and chameleon.
4) Key positions started to be held by non-tigre people
5) Some governments people start moving where they put their many
6) We have eritrean as first lady, but it is kind of shame to mention her name. (God knows what Azeb felt!). Up to now no governmental mass media printed her as first lady.

Difficult to leave with or with out them, ha ha!

7)We started deplomatic relationship with qatar.


Comming back to 5 and 6, what will mr 'i am happy' do against eritrea. Mother land or mother of children. Why do we end up in this kind okward situation!!

I am surprised with an elusive motives and comments of the two prime Minsters. first, I fail time grasp what the Ethiopian's mean by"a good heart": religious or the popular film? Second, it appears that Ethiopian knows how to act on security issues and by no means this is at its early development stages. what the motives of the two prime ministers so?

Importantly Ethiopian does not need unreal talks. Resources also should not be wasted on a meeting which posses no value added to the country. If there is a real economic development for the country like oil exploration and extraction, that is a most well come talks. That a leader that country wants.

you can see the real country like USA. Who talks about human right, religious etc on the presidential election. The truth bases on how country economic development performs. How people employed and get paid. if that is not there, there would not be peace and support a candidate.

sorry I don't discuss more points because I assume that you all knows what is real agreement means.

All this plan comes from decision of foreigners. I think they are veering Ethiopia where they want her to go. In addition, they want Eritrea to be the military power at the expense of Ethioipa. They are forcing Ethiopia to enrich Eritrea while Ethiopians are going hungry. For example, Asmara didn't have any income from Asab port. So rather than Asab belonging to Ethiopia, they want Ethiopia to divert its port from Djibouti to Asmara, giving billions to Asmara. With this money, the Westerner will get rich when Asmara has money to buy military. Once Asmara becomes powerful, it can now fully occupy and domiante Ethioipa. This is the goal. Who are Qataris? They work with the West. Just follow the money. There is nothing that says the safety of Ethiopia here. So it is the foreingers designing everythng for us.

It is a shame that even tPLF or shabya are letting themselves foreigners get involved in their business which is recipie for disaster. Nothing good comes out of foreign interference except desruction.

Obviously,, the Shabia and TPLF are getting orders on what to do on both countries' affairs. Shame shame. Even they are selling out that could endanger christianity in Ethiopia of Eritrea.

Facts about Qatar:



Qatar is the only other Wahhabi state in the Arabian Peninsula. The other one being Saudi Arabia.


It became independent in 197 from Britain. Qatar was under Ottoman Turk for many years the same way all the Middle East did.

With a small citizen population of less than 300,000 people, the Qatar workforce comprises expatriates from other Arab nations (20% of population), the Indian subcontinent (India 20%, Nepal 13%, Pakistan 7%, Sri Lanka 5%), Southeast Asia (Philippines 10%), and other countries (5%).

The most important positions in Qatar are held by the members of the Al Thani family, or close confidants of the al-Thani family. Beginning in 1992, Qatar has built intimate military ties with the United States, and is now the location of U.S. Central Command’s Forward Headquarters and the Combined Air Operations Center.

Much of the country consists of a low, barren plain, covered with sand. There are mild winters and very hot, humid summers. The highest point in Qatar is Qurayn Abu al Bawl at 103 metres (338 ft).

Qatar is a wahabi small desert nation with population 300.000(three hundreds thousands). But these 300.000 seem are all Satans and demons causing so many problems especially in poor nations using money they are getting without working but digging the sand and selling oil and gas to polluting the Environment.

The Ethiopian people must aware about how evil these little wahabi Qatar is with the size of population she has less than a town in Ethiopia such as Dire Dawa, Bahir Dar and so on.

I wonder how many ugly mosques this Qataris are allowed to build again. We want to build a Church for the expatriat Ethiopians in Qatar too. But according to the logic of these Whabists they are the only ones to build mosques. I heared they are the ones who built the mosque at Somali tera. Any contact with these Arabs will only end in tragedy.

Almaz ye Cherkos shelle, used and abused by Arabs.
Once in a while low life empty head Amhara like you show up on this site thinking they are the untouchable. As if they have the license to bark on everyone else. Until someone like me put you in your place. Maybe you are the same drunkard changing screen names. I am surprised you didn’t call yourself the queen of Dubai. You all act and sound the same.
Beirut is full of you, Dubai is full of you. Khartoum is full of you. Now next stop will Qatar. It is in your DNA. You have no shame selling your body. But the first to complain about those nasty Arabs. As far as I am concerned, low life like you deserve what they get. No one force you to go there. If not Arab country you are all over Africa. You are a disgrace to the Country. You make Ethiopia synonymous with prostitution in Middle East. Don't even think about crossing the Atlantic. Stay where you are. There are enough of you lazy bastard loud mouthes who think they own the place. Worada gimatam fandiya.

Seattle aka mohamed the pedo,

Kitatabi, fyi I have never been to your evil muslim countries. To go there and live with dirty shiritam muslims like you is like living in hel. I would rather die than live among evil hairy Arabs and Arab ass lickers like you. Btw why don't you live there instead of America which you all hate and despise? Simply because you all are hypocrites. I am sure you came to america using Christian name. You are a sleeping cell till the day of jihad against America. Bis bis ye lemagn zer go to your mosque and conspire on how many Christian you wish to kill. Ahiya, why do you think anyone would be scared of you? Archume is enough for you trouble makers who are demonstrating every friday in the Christian country of Ethiopia. Wondagered like you are the ones who are giving bad name to our country by sleeping with hairy gay Arabs. Ante ye Arab wondagered go and suck Arab dick and in the evening rape your 8 year olds wives.
