Egypt and Ethiopia swap diplomats
Egypt and Ethiopia exchanged reciprocal diplomatic measures by each announcing the expulsion of the other's diplomats within 48 hours, marking a new escalation in their tense relations. This action came after Ethiopia declared an Egyptian individual as persona non grata, with Cairo responding in kind. Neither country disclosed specific reasons for this escalation, which reflects increasing tensions between them over regional issues, most notably the Nile waters and the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam. This escalation occurs within a broader context of tensions that also include the Ethiopia-Eritrea crisis and the deterioration of relations between the two neighbors.
