German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier has had his stay in Ethiopia extended after defects were found on his government plane. It’s the second time his plane has had trouble in Ethiopia as well as a few other countries. However, a technical issue, found prior to takeoff, left ground crew scrambling to repair the problem, according to German tabloid, Bild. During his stay in the African country, Steinmeier met with Ethiopian President Sahle-Work Zewde and Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, discussing policy, cultural, and development issues. It’s not the first time Steinmeier has been grounded in Ethiopia, or indeed while on official business.
