Egypt Condemns Ethiopian Statements on Potential Nile Water Control
Egyptian officials have responded to recent Ethiopian statements about building additional dams on the Nile River and controlling water flows to Egypt and Sudan, calling them a blatant violation of international law.
Ethiopian Statements
The official noted that these statements reflect Ethiopia's continued illusions about imposing dominance over a shared international river, reminding that the Nile is not owned by any single country.
The official emphasized that Egypt will take all necessary measures to protect its people's rights to the Nile, indicating that Egypt's tools are diverse and capable of defending its interests.
Background
This comes amidst a long-standing dispute between Egypt, Ethiopia, and Sudan over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam on the Blue Nile, which Ethiopia deems crucial for its economic development aspirations.
This issue is vital for Egypt, which relies heavily on the Nile to meet its water needs.
