BRICS: A Gateway to Ethiopia’s Infrastructure Leap
“The BRICS platform will be a very important platform for countries like Ethiopia in many ways,” Yetemgeta Asrat, Ethiopia’s State Minister of Infrastructure, told Sputnik Africa on the sidelines of the Big 5 Construct Ethiopia 2025 in Addis Ababa.
As a new member of BRICS, Ethiopia sees immense value in:
Technology transfer
Policy dialogue
Experience sharing with nations like China, Russia & Brazil
Access to BRICS’ New Development Bank for infrastructure financing
Moreover, Ethiopia is taking bold strides to localize production of construction materials through the Ethiopia Tamrit Movement (Let Ethiopia Produce) — working hand-in-hand with the Ministries of Mines and Industry to reduce import reliance.
