CAIRO – 6 September 2023: Ethiopia has showed no change in its stances regarding the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam in the talks that took place in Cairo late in August, said Egypt’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Sameh Shoukry on Wednesday. In parallel, Egypt has also monitored no change in the Ethiopian unilateral position regarding the filling and operation of the dam, Shoukry affirmed. Shoukry affirmed Egypt’s continuous endeavors to reach a peaceful solution on GERD in a way that does not harm the Egyptian water interests and national security. Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia held a new round of tripartite talks on 27-28 August to resume negotiations on the controversial mega dam that Ethiopia is building and operating on the Blue Nile. Egypt and Sudan have urged Ethiopia repeatedly to sign a legally-binding agreement on GERD, which would protect their water rights and people’s interests.

According to The Times of Israel, leaked news of the meeting received tremendous blowback in Tripoli and Prime Minister Hamid Dheibah went ballistic. Dheibah reportedly rejected outright the prospect of normalizing relations with Israel. He went on to “affirm [Libya’s] rejection of any form of normalization and declared, ‘Long live Libya, long live Palestine, and long live the Palestinian cause in all our hearts…’”AdvertisementHe also condemned foreign minister Najla Magoush, whom he said had “acted independently,” and vowed to get to the bottom of what had happened. Prime Minister Netanyahu also reportedly had prior knowledge of the meeting. Taking that into consideration, this public outburst following the news leak seems to be a matter of keeping a lid on popular unrest in Libya, which has long been hostile to Israel and supportive of the Palestinians.
