While in Brussels, the President apart from actively participating in the sixth  EU-AU Summit, held various bilateral meetings with world leaders including the Presidents of Algeria, South Africa, Prime Minister of Ethiopia under the auspices of the “G4”.

During the G4 meeting, the leaders resolved to strengthen the platform for the resolution of the various issues confronting the African continent.

The G4 Platform, an initiative of the Ethiopian Prime Minister, Abiy Ahmed,  was set up toward discussing and proffering solutions as well as aggregating positions to ensure that the African Union carried its work forward successfully, efficiently  and quickly too.
