Ethiopia challenges US mediation
The article clarifies that Egypt is responding strongly to Ethiopian provocations regarding the Renaissance Dam, emphasizing its rejection of any Ethiopian control over the flow of the Nile River water, which is a legitimate right of the two downstream countries, Egypt and Sudan. It is noted that Ethiopia has announced its intention to build additional dams on the Blue Nile, threatening Egypt's water rights and livelihood. Cairo’s response came through clear messages affirming that Egypt possesses multiple options to defend its interests, and that its historical rights to the Nile waters are red lines that cannot be crossed, hinting at the possibility of not backing down from its stance. The Egyptian government accuses Ethiopia of attempting to dominate this river and calls on the international community not to let other dam-related issues be used as a distraction from the Renaissance Dam crisis. Meanwhile, the U.S. administration has expressed readiness to resume mediation efforts among the three countries, despite Ethiopia’s escalation and ongoing political provocations, which threaten the prospects of reaching a diplomatic agreement to end the crisis.
