Ethiopia–Yugoslavia relations were historical foreign relations between Ethiopia and now split-up Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Both countries were among founding members of the Non-Aligned Movement. The first contacts between the two countries were established at the United Nations in 1947 where Yugoslavia supported Ethiopian claims on Eritrea (the end of the British Military Administration and the establishment of the Federation of Ethiopia and Eritrea) while Ethiopia supported Yugoslav claims over the Free Territory of Trieste.[1] After the 1948, Tito-Stalin split Yugoslavia turned towards the non-bloc countries and two countries opened their embassies in 1955.[1] The formal diplomatic relations were established already in 1952.[2] Emperor Haile Selassie was the first African head of state in official visit to Yugoslavia in 1954.[1]
During Tito's visit to Ethiopia in 1970 (part of a tour to Tanzania, Zambia, Ethiopia, Kenya, Sudan, United Arab Republic and Libya) president and emperor of Ethiopia discussed their aims within the Non-Aligned Movement and expressed satisfaction with the fact that the Nigerian Civil War was over in which the Organisation of African Unity played prominent positive role.[3]
