Egypt opposes water resource monopolization
Egypt affirms that Ethiopia is violating international law with its statements regarding the construction of additional dams on the Nile River and control over the water flows reaching Egypt and Sudan. Egypt considers this an attempt to impose the status quo and monopoly over a shared water resource, which directly breaches the rights of the downstream countries. Egypt emphasizes that the Nile is not owned by any one country and affirms its readiness to take necessary measures to protect its water interests in accordance with international law. It also opposes Ethiopia's refusal to sign a binding agreement regulating the filling and operation of the dams, which increases regional tensions over water security in the area.
