Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed won the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday for his peacemaking efforts with Eritrea.

Ethiopia and Eritrea, longtime foes who fought a border war from 1998 to 2000, restored relations in July 2018 after years of hostility.

The 831,000 euro prize will be presented in Oslo on December 10.

He was given the prize for “his efforts to achieve international peace and co-operation and his initiative to resolve the border conflict with neighbouring Eritrea”.
