Sudan boycotted the tripartite ministerial meeting held on Monday to discuss the disputed issues regarding the Ethiopian Dam. The meeting was held in the presence of water resources ministers from both Egypt and Ethiopia. On Sunday, African experts submitted a memorandum of agreement for the three countries. It is hoped that the Ethiopian Dam negotiations will be concluded by the end of this month, and before the end of South Africa’s AU presidency. For almost a decade, Egypt, Ethiopia, and Sudan have been engaged in negotiations on the Nile dam.
