Eritrea’s President Isaias Afwerki has arrived in Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa, for a three-day state visit, as part of an unprecedented softening of tensions between the neighbouring countries.

An agreement signed in Asmara by the two Horn of Africa nations on Monday formally ended a conflict that has been ongoing for more than two decades.

Eritrea and Ethiopia have so far agreed to open embassies, develop ports and restart flights. Eritrean president Isaias Afwerki is expected to give a speech this upcoming sunday.
