Ethiopia's Nile Water Share Response
Dr. Hani Sweilim, Minister of Water Resources and Irrigation, affirmed that Egypt's share of the Nile waters, amounting to 55.5 billion cubic meters, represents only about 2.7% of the total rainfall that falls on the Nile Basin, which is approximately 2,000 billion cubic meters. In response to Ethiopian claims that Egypt receives a "lion's share" of the basin’s water, he explained that the reality shows Egypt depends heavily on its own water resources and the Nile River's resources, while Ethiopia possesses a vast foundation of rainfall, surface water, and groundwater. His statements indicate that claims of Egypt having a significant share are inaccurate, and the reality is that Egypt suffers from severe drought and relies entirely on the Nile's waters.
