STORYLINE:
China and Ethiopia celebrated the 55th anniversary of their diplomatic relations on Sunday in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia.
The grand event, hosted by the Chinese Embassy and the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Ethiopia, coincided with the celebration of the upcoming Chinese New Year, or Spring Festival. The event featured a variety of activities, including a charity bazaar, Chinese cultural performances, traditional Chinese foods, and free medical services.
The Spring Festival will fall on Jan. 29 this year, kicking off the Year of the Snake, according to the Chinese lunar calendar.
Speaking at the event, which drew a large crowd of Chinese expatriates and local visitors, Chinese Ambassador to Ethiopia Chen Hai reflected on the 55 years of bilateral cooperation between China and Ethiopia.

"Looking ahead, we will take the 55th anniversary as a new starting point, implement the outcome of the FOCAC (Forum on China-Africa Cooperation) Beijing Summit and the consensus reached by our national leaders, and work together with our Ethiopian friends and friends in the world to move towards modernization."
He said Chinese Spring Festival is an important platform for sharing Chinese culture with the world and noted the festival was recently inscribed on UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage list.
Recalling that China and Ethiopia had elevated their bilateral ties to an all-weather strategic partnership in October last year, Ethiopia's State Minister of Foreign Affairs Mesganu Arga highlighted the deep-rooted friendship between China and Ethiopia, which he described as grounded in shared values and historical parallels.
