Ethiopian Prime Minister Mr. Abiy Ahmed Ali, has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2019 by the Norwegian based Nobel Committee in Oslo. In making the award to Mr. Abiy, the Nobel committee cited the Prime Minister’s successful efforts to resolve the border conflict with neighboring Eritrea in addition with his overall effort to achieve international peace and cooperation. Mr. Abiy Ahmed became Prime Minister of Ethiopia in April 2018.
Eritrea and Ethiopia had been in enmity with each other for a very long time with frequent clashes and a border war which lasted from 1998 to 2000. The two neighbors have since resolved their conflict and restored relations in July 2018. Mr. Abiy Ahmed has also been involved with mediating a long-drawn-out conflict over rights to a disputed marine area between the neighboring countries of Kenya and Somalia.
