"We are happy to send Our Christmas Greetings……" — His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie Ist

"We are happy to send Our Christmas Greetings to the holiday reunion of Ethiopian students in Great Britain. They reach you at a time when Our efforts for the reunion of Eritrea to the Motherland have been crowned with success, and access to the sea has been opened to Ethiopia. Since the larger the number of a people, the less they are vulnerable to aggression, We are proud to know that the people of a former province once torn away from the Motherland are now restored to Us. We well know that you have been brought together during your holidays by reason of the sense of brotherhood and by loyalty and devotion to your own country. You all know that the high privilege of your study abroad has been made possible through Our Government's policy supported by the individual tax contributions of all Our people. In this making your education possible the permanent rather than the temporary benefit of Our people has been preferred."

His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie Ist
