Ethiopia is the true gateway to African-Israeli relationship - PM
Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn is in Israel on a four-day official visit. He is expected to touch on diplomacy and economic cooperation as well as meet nationals who live in Israel.

“And rest assured that we will be with you. We know the need for African-Israeli relationship to be deepened,” Reuters quoted Desalegn as saying after the meeting.
