Renaissance Dam dispute resurfaces
The article discusses the crisis of the Ethiopian Grand Renaissance Dam, explaining that Ethiopia plans to build additional dams to enhance electricity production and control water flows to Egypt and Sudan. This is despite ongoing disagreements over operational rules and water management. It is noted that the dam construction began in 2011 and was officially inaugurated in 2025 after more than 14 years of construction. His statements about building new dams and controlling water flows have elicited Egyptian reactions warning against the unilateral approach, which conflicts with international law. Technical experts emphasize that Ethiopia cannot permanently block the flow of the Nile's water, and that constructing new dams requires detailed studies and consensus among the downstream countries to ensure the preservation of Egypt and Sudan’s water rights.
