Egypt calls for suspension of Nile dam talks vanguardnews

Egypt on Tuesday called for a suspension of meetings with Ethiopia on Addis Ababa’s massive dam construction project on the Nile.

Egypt and Sudan invoke a “historic right” over the river guaranteed by treaties concluded in 1929 and 1959. “This new Ethiopian position threatens the negotiations under the aegis of the African Union, and Sudan will not participate in negotiations which include the subject of sharing Blue Nile waters,” he said.

The Egyptian water ministry, in a statement, said Ethiopia put forward a draft proposal that lacked regulations on the operation of the dam or any legal obligations.
