SECRETARY BLINKEN: Well, good afternoon, everyone. We’ve had an enduring partnership when it comes to humanitarian assistance with Ethiopia, going back decades. And it’s enduring because we’ve had periods of famine, conflict, displacement, and yet throughout we have found ways, working with extraordinary partners like World Vision, like Catholic Relief Services, to make sure we were working with our partners to provide assistance.
Just in the last couple of years, even with the conflict in Tigray in Ethiopia, we have provided about $3 billion worth of humanitarian assistance. And it’s been very important . . .
