The disastrous impact of climate change is badly affecting Africa. We are gathered at the Africa Climate Summit 2023, our summit should not be a talk show, but a place where concrete actions are being taken. Common position is always needed in African Union forums.
Our future depends on our decisions being made now. Urgent action is needed in limiting global warming into 1.5 degree Celsius to avoid the worst impact. Eight years after its signature, ensuring the implementation of the Paris Agreement is not an option again.

The commemoration Sacrifice Day would inspire the young generation to replicate Ethiopian heroes’ commitment and sacrifice to maintain their country’s sovereignty. A patriot citizen never retreated from sacrificing his time, labor or even life for the nation’s cause. To be that kind of person, all should know the history of their country.
Sacrifice and Ethiopia are intertwined. The path that the country had gone through could simply signify that. We will pay the necessary sacrifice to withstand the current challenges and sustain the nation.”
Brigadier General Worku Kebede, Defense Ministry Office Head
