CAIRO – 27 January 2021: In a bid to raise awareness on what is happening on the Sudanese-Ethiopian borders, Sudan is dispatching delegations to certain countries to clarify the situation. If any damage occurs, Sudan would be the part affected, so there must be an agreement that protects Sudan,” he said. On Jan. 16, sokesman for the Sovereignty Council of Sudan Mohamed Suleiman has said that Sudan will not allow Ethiopia to impose its policy regarding the renaissance dam. The dispute between Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia dates back to May 2011 when Ethiopia started building the dam; Egypt voiced concern over its water share [55.5 billion cubic meters]. Three years later, a series of tripartite talks between the two countries along with Sudan began to reach an agreement, while Ethiopia continued the dam construction.
