The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has announced the successful repatriation of more than 27,000 Ethiopians from Saudi Arabia in recent weeks. This was revealed during a media briefing by the Spokesperson of the Ministry, Ambassador Nebiyu Tedla, who emphasized the government’s commitment to bringing back Ethiopians facing difficult situations abroad.
Last month, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs outlined a plan to repatriate 70,000 Ethiopians from Saudi Arabia. To facilitate this effort, a national committee comprising various government agencies was established.
Ambassador Tedla highlighted that this committee has been actively collaborating with relevant stakeholders to manage the return of the Ethiopians and provide them with shelter upon their arrival in Addis Ababa.
“So far, the government has successfully repatriated over 27,000 individuals from Saudi Arabia,” said Ambassador Tedla, noting that three flights are being conducted daily, four days a week, to continue bringing citizens back home.
In addition to the repatriation efforts, Ambassador Tedla also briefed the media on the major diplomatic activities carried out by the Ministry in recent days.
