Addis Ababa, January 5/2024(ENA) Ethiopia has never attempted to trample on the interests of other countries and develop at their expense, House of People's Representative Mohammed Al-Arousi pointed out today. Accordingly, the recent agreement concluded between Ethiopia and Somaliland was open and does not violate the law and custom of the countries. According to the MP, the concern of neighboring countries was taken into consideration and weighed against the need for sea port, which is an existential issue for Ethiopia with 120 million population. The international community must, therefore, understand Ethiopia's aspiration for development and regional integration, and welcome the agreement. Mohammed further recalled that Ethiopia has been one of the few countries that maintained peace in the region and beyond.
