A senior Ethiopian official and scholar has underlined the significant role of China in addressing the current crises facing developing nations and building a sustainable future, saying that Beijing has championed the interests of Africa and the Global South.

Arkebe Oqubay, a senior minister and special adviser to the Prime Minister of Ethiopia, told a recent news conference in Beijing that"China has given an inspiration to developing countries, showing how a developing country can grow faster and can make structural transformation".

He noted that Africa has been most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and seen its food security threatened by geopolitical conflicts including the Ukrainian crisis. The Ethiopian scholar highlighted the immense potential for Chinese investment into the manufacturing sector and agriculture of Africa, which boosts a significant potential with its demographic dynamics.

Oqubay also applauded the recent expansion of the BRICS to include Ethiopia, saying that grouping is"an important economic alliance and important front for the Global South to play much more important roles".
