GERD has the potential of bringing both positive and negative impacts on Sudan. With its gigantic size, it poses great potential negative impacts on Sudan if not properly designed, constructed, filled and operated. That’s why Sudan refrained from conducting bilateral negotiations in Washington in the absence of Ethiopia.

Following that, an invitation was extended by Sudan to all parties including the observers for the resumption of the trilateral negotiations.
