Sudan’s Water Resources and Electricity Ministry has announced that Ethiopia has the right to use its water resources without prejudicing or causing damage to the other neighboring nations through conducting joint talks and negotiations for overcoming any damage in case it occurred
After his meeting with the Ethiopian Media delegation and the delegation of the people’s democracy visiting Khartoum on Sunday, Sudan’s Water Resources and Electricity Minister, Mutaz Musa, said that the visit of the diplomatic delegation aims to boost relations between the governments of the two countries and build-up of ties between the two peoples, pointing out that
the project of The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) represents an important step towards boosting joint cooperation between Sudan, Egypt and Ethiopia.
The leaders of Sudan, Ethiopia and Egypt signed in Khartoum in last March an initial cooperation deal on the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD).
The leaders said the “declaration of principles” would pave the way for further diplomatic cooperation on the GERD which has stirred fears of a regional resource conflict.
Egypt fears the dam will negatively affect its traditional share of water from the Nile, its only source of water which has been determined by a colonial-era water-sharing treaty.
Ethiopia, the source of about 85% of the Nile’s water, mainly through rainfall in its highlands, with over 90% of Egyptians relying on water from the Nile’s flows, insists that the project is indispensable to its own national development and the economic welfare of its burgeoning population.
