Dam of discord: a new escalation of the conflict between Ethiopia and Egypt
At the end of 2023, the crisis surrounding the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam escalated. Throughout the year, the governments of Egypt and Sudan have called on Ethiopia to agree to a compromise during the dam negotiations to protect the rights and interests of all three countries. The parties remain concerned that Ethiopia is regulating the Nile's flow, which could harm agricultural interests and water security in already arid regions.
Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, in turn, said that neither side would be disadvantaged, and the hydroelectric power station itself would only bring benefits. It was planned that the agreements would be concluded before the end of the year.
However, on December 20, the office of Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi released a statement that the fourth round of negotiations had failed.
