Ethiopian Medical Team Arrives in Eritrea

A team of Ethiopian doctors arrived in Asmara, Eritrea''s capital, where the physicians will work for two months on a voluntary basis in vulnerable areas.

Made up of 39 doctors, including four specialists, the group was received by the Ethiopian ambassador to Eritrea, Redwan Hussein.

The doctors, graduates of the Bahir Dar University, will share teaching and practical experiences with their Eritrean peers.

For Hussein, as reported by Fana Broadcasting Corporate, the deployment of health professionals will help strengthen friendship between the two nations.

The two countries agreed last July to re-establish diplomatic relations, a pact with which they ended one of the most intractable conflicts in Africa.

The diplomat believes that this step is also very important for consolidating socio-economic integration in the so-called Horn of Africa.
