Egypt joins opening of Nyerere Dam in Tanzania
The article focused on the inauguration of the Julius Nyerere Hydropower Project and Dam in Tanzania, which Egypt participated in celebrating officially. Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly and Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan jointly unveiled the project. Madbouly made statements confirming that the project proves Egypt does not oppose development initiatives in the Nile Basin countries. He explained that Egypt seeks development without harming its interests or those of Sudan, particularly regarding Nile water rights. Additionally, the Egyptian Minister of Water Resources stated that the dam is illegal because it was constructed unilaterally without coordination with the downstream countries, Egypt and Sudan. He considered the opening of the Julius Nyerere station a model for cooperation and shared development among the upstream and downstream countries of the Nile. He expressed his belief that Nile Basin countries can achieve progress collectively.
