Former Egyptian Irrigation Minister Mohamed Nasr El-Din Allam warned that Ethiopian dams could threaten the water security of Egypt and Sudan. The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) holds between 60 and 70 billion cubic metres, and the risks of storing and releasing water are heightened by the absence of clear operating and coordination mechanisms. He said that withholding water when it is needed and then releasing large quantities at an unsuitable time could cause flooding and damage, although the High Dam had previously helped Egypt cope with reduced Nile flows. He called for an agreement among Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia to manage the dams in a way that supports development and electricity generation in Ethiopia without harming downstream countries.
