GERD negotiations collapse -AMAY

Negotiations between Egypt and Ethiopia over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) have “failed,” Al Masry Al Youm said ominously yesterday, citing unnamed sources. The Irrigation Ministry said that following a round of meetings, a few technical points remain unaddressed and will be looked into in a future meeting, without setting a time or date. Sudanese sources told AMAY the Ethiopian delegation showed no flexibility and refused to compromise when met with Egyptian concerns.
