Egypt and Sudan urge Ethiopia to negotiate seriously over giant dam
(Worthy News) – Sudan and Egypt agreed on Wednesday to coordinate efforts to push Ethiopia to negotiate “seriously” on an agreement on filling and operating a giant dam it is building on the Blue Nile, a joint statement said.
The two countries, which are downstream from the dam, issued the statement after African Union-sponsored talks remained deadlocked.
