The 6th edition of Mexican Gastronomic week

The relationships between Mexico and Ethiopia trace back to the first Italian invasion of Ethiopia when Mexico supported Ethiopia to defend its severity against colonialism. The relationship grows to establishing the first diplomatic office in the continent Africa by Mexico.
It is now 70 years that the two countries entered into an official diplomatic relationship. They have a very popular street named after one another and Mexico City named a metro station after Ethiopia.
