Description
Speaking before the Ethiopian Parliament, Prime minister Abiy Ahmed says "we have no plans of invading or attacking others but we won't be ashamed to ask for access to a port." In a televised speech a month earlier, Prime Minister Ahmed said that landlocked Ethiopia needed access to a Red Sea port from its neighbours in the Horn of Africa. Ethiopia lost its coastline after Eritrea broke away from Addis Ababa and formally declared independence in 1993 following a three-decade war. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
