El-Sisi and Abiy Ahmed Miss BRICS Meeting

The BRICS summit in New Delhi concluded without a bilateral meeting between Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El Sisi and Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, amid ongoing tensions over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) file. The absence of a meeting reflects Egypt's lack of trust in the Ethiopian government and Cairo's rejection of Addis Ababa's unilateral stance regarding dam construction on the Nile River, which threatens Egypt’s water share estimated at 55.5 billion cubic meters. Despite not meeting, Sisi emphasized at the summit the importance of respecting international law to ensure Egypt’s water rights. Meanwhile, relations between the two countries remain tense due to disagreements over the dam. Experts believe that the absence of a meeting indicates continued deadlock on the issue and Egypt’s limited ability to voice its position in international forums, even as it steadfastly defends its water rights and refuses to compromise on them.
