Apart from the nearby economic relations, many Asian and some European countries are targets to promote cross-border trade relations. In an exclusive interview with The Ethiopian Herald, State Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Dr. Aklilu Hailemichael said that Ethiopia has praiseworthy trade relations with its neighbors besides political relations. Evidently, Ethiopia has impressive economic relationships with Djibouti particularly in port services - which most of Ethiopia's goods are imported via Djibouti. Apart from political support, the two countries have also economic relations especially in exchange of commodities as well. Their economic relations will be strengthened in the course of time.
