Two months before being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize , the Prime Minister of Ethiopia split a letter to "His Excellency" President Emmanuel Macron . On July 22, 2019, Abiy Ahmed asked France to help "strengthen the Ethiopian Air Force" by providing, on credit, a sophisticated arsenal detailed on three pages. This list includes:

12 fighter jets (including Rafale and Mirage 2000),
18 helicopters and 2 military transport aircraft manufactured by Airbus,
10 Dassault drones, electronic jamming systems and,
even more surprisingly, thirty M51 missiles with a range of more than 6,000 kilometers ...
and nuclear warheads! A request for the least extravagant (and illegal) knowing that France like Ethiopia have signed the nuclear nonproliferation treaty.

For the rest, France has certainly endorsed a new defense partnership in March 2019, but no one expected such a military appetite and formalized so quickly from one of the poorest countries on the planet. . If we refer to the sales prices of previous similar contracts, the bill could exceed 4 billion euros *.
