Renaissance Dam crisis (2018x3)

Data emisji: Sty 16, 2018

Negotiations between Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia concerning the latter’s Renaissance Dam fell apart in November 2017 when officials from Cairo walked away from the talks. It is presumed that the parties failed to reach an agreement on the impact assessment of the project. The scale of the impasse is unique as it not only deals with the Renaissance Dam but also sets a legal precedent for future upstream projects and thereby affects the geopolitical balance between Egypt and Ethiopia.
