The article aimed to clarify Egypt's position regarding Ethiopia's escalation in constructing new dams on the Blue Nile. This is especially pertinent given Ethiopia’s intention to build three dams with a combined capacity of up to 140 billion cubic meters, which would increase the total storage capacity to approximately 224 billion cubic meters. Egypt affirmed that any projects on the Nile River must adhere to international agreements and respect the water rights of the downstream countries, Egypt and Sudan. It pointed out that Ethiopia’s recent statements reflect an attempt by Addis Ababa to impose dominance and monopolize Nile resources, a stance that Egypt and the Nile Basin countries oppose by advocating for the protection of their water rights and supporting a cooperative approach. Egypt considers Ethiopia's continued construction of new dams to be inconsistent with international law and has confirmed its readiness to take necessary measures to safeguard its water resources.
