Egypt Reacts as Italy Offers Mediation in Renaissance Dam Talks
Italy has expressed its readiness to assist in facilitating dialogue between Egypt and Ethiopia regarding the Renaissance Dam crisis. This was announced during a press conference following the inaugural session of the Egyptian-Italian Joint Committee, chaired by Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tayaani and his Egyptian counterpart, Sameh Shoukry. Tayaani emphasized the importance of reaching a fair and sustainable negotiated solution that respects the principles of international law, in order to ensure Egypt’s water rights. Meanwhile, Shoukry welcomed Italy’s stance and urged the parties to avoid unilateral measures that could harm the negotiations. The dispute over the Renaissance Dam has been ongoing since 2011, with Egypt and Sudan demanding a legally binding agreement to regulate dam management, while Ethiopia considers the dam a sovereign issue, which has hindered the reaching of a comprehensive agreement.
