Strengthening the demonstration role of China-Ethiopia cooperation

近幾年，中埃合作成绩斐然，在基础设施、产业园区、教育合作、医疗救助、文化交流、旅游等领域都建立起创新合作模式。这些成绩的背后，是“一带一路”建设、埃塞俄比亚“五年计划”等国家规划层面的助推，也是高层互访成果的见证。

2018年9月，中非合作论坛北京峰会前夕，中国国家主席习近平在人民大会堂会见埃塞俄比亚总理阿比。习近平指出，埃塞俄比亚是中国在非洲的重要合作伙伴，两国关系定位已提升为全面战略合作伙伴关系。中方支持埃方走适合本国国情的发展道路，赞赏埃方积极参与共建“一带一路”，愿同埃方保持高层交往势头，全面深化各领域互利合作。

阿比也表示，中国是埃塞国家发展进程中可靠的朋友，中方一直以来的宝贵帮助对埃塞实现经济转型并取得今天这样的经济成就至关重要。埃塞珍视两国间平等互利合作，愿学习中国治国理政经验，致力于深化两国关系，积极参与共建“一带一路”，拓展双边交流合作，密切在国际事务中协调。

早在2014年，中国国务院总理李克强便将埃塞俄比亚作为任内首次非洲之行的首站，访问期间，李克强表示，发展基础设施和推动对外开放是发展中国家实现经济起飞的两个“轮子”，中国愿同埃塞俄比亚巩固传统友谊，全面拓展和深化铁路、公路等基础设施建设和制造业合作，加强金融、工业园合作，推动两国友好合作关系迈上新台阶。

期间，李克强总理与时任埃塞俄比亚总理海尔马里亚姆共同出席亚的斯亚贝巴一阿达玛高速公路一期竣工揭牌典礼，为二期工程开工奠基剪彩，并参观了由中国企业投资兴建的中埃经贸合作东方工业园，为项目的落地落实添砖加瓦。

无独有偶，2019年1月，中国国务委员兼外交部长王毅非洲之行首站也选择了埃塞俄比亚。1月3日，埃塞俄比亚新当选的总统萨赫勒一沃克在亚的斯亚贝巴总统府会见王毅外长。

萨赫勒一沃克表示，埃中关系的广度和深度令人印象深刻。埃塞政府和社会各界均致力于进一步加强对华合作，期待未来两国关系更加强劲有力，埃塞将继续积极支持和参与“一带一路”合作。

王毅则强调，中国和埃塞的振兴都是发展中国家力量的增强，都是维护世界和平稳定力量的增长，在埃塞国家发展和民族振兴过程中，中方愿继续做埃塞的长期和可信赖合作伙伴。王毅还表示，期待中埃全面战略合作伙伴关系，在新形势下继续走在中非关系前列，发挥示范作用。
