In 2012, Debretstion announced that a $1.6 billion deal had been reached with Huawei, Ericsson and ZTE to significantly expand the capacity of the communication infrastructure.[8] As of September 2016 project has been progressing on schedule.[9] 4G cellular service is now available in Addis Ababa. The ultimate goal of the project is to increase cellular coverage to 100% and to increase the capacity to 50 million.[10] Debretsion was appointed as the Deputy Prime Minister for Finance and Economic Cluster in 2012.

As Debretsion is not member of the Tigray Regional parliament, he could not become President. Nonetheless, as the post of the President became vacant, the Deputy President will be the President of Tigray Region in an acting capacity.[16] References1. ^{{Cite
