Trilateral meeting between Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan
Minister of Foreign Affairs of Egypt Sameh Shoukry called on Tuesday for a tripartite meeting with Ethiopia and Sudan in a phone conversation with his Ethiopian counterpart Workneh Gebeyehu. In March 2015, the three countries signed a declaration of principles whereby they agreed on the construction of the dam, but with technical studies to be conducted in order to guarantee that Egypt and Sudan’s share of the Nile water will not be affected.
