Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn has said the country has boosted economy rapidly thanks to an "excellent relationship" with China.

Desalegn made the remarks during an interview with CCTV last Friday in Addis Ababa, saying that the collaborative leadership of the two countries helped their rapid growth.

Ethiopia is among China's comprehensive strategic cooperation partners in several sectors including the "Belt and Road" initiative.

"The relationship between Ethiopia and China is deep and we have very strong excellent relationship. This goes in every aspect of our corporation," said Desalegn.

China and Ethiopia are both leading countries in terms of global economic growth, and Ethiopia has been seeing very fast economic growth, said Desalegn.
