Last week, Hamdok suggested holding the prime minister-level summit within 10 days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Egypt already has the same plan:<\/strong> Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry has said on multiple occasions that Egypt <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/fed1a86a-7b61-41be-828c-d1a714e4de03\">could take up the matter<\/a> with the UN Security Council, but appears to have taken a step in that direction after speaking with UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres about the talks and penning letters to each of the UN General Assembly and the Security Council <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/e8d22435-a990-4aee-b7e4-8c02e204d08a\">last week<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What can the Security Council do, again?<\/strong> If the GERD issue is brought to the Security Council, the 15-member UN committee can issue a resolution that is considered binding, but is not tantamount to international law. The resolution would have to get backing from at least nine members, and not be vetoed by one of the five permanent members \u2014 the US, UK, France, China, and Russia. While Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia are currently not members of the council, they would be permitted to join the council\u2019s discussions on the matter but would not vote on a resolution. Egypt and Sudan could, theoretically speaking, be given the green light from the council to take action (including military action) if the council agreed that Ethiopia poses a threat to international peace and security, as per <a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/en\/about-us\/un-charter\/chapter-7\">Chapter 7 of the UN Charter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Meanwhile, we\u2019re still drumming up more international support:<\/strong> President Abdel Fattah El Sisi discussed the GERD issue with Djibouti President Ismail Omar Guelleh on Thursday, according to an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Egy.Pres.Spokesman\/posts\/1132924307226948?__cft__[0]=AZUOdjIOWIpaq2foLad155hPiHkDA6IqMsgof1_6JMsLm2tMzy1brZtrKxCHgA-A-MRjd2E-hk5tmzxl7b9pT1sa--zOCdDTLRwSEDl3nQ05DNTnAamzqMmZrOkbgplcvZ8-iOfjU5ZORIi5i51OyN97&__tn__=%2CO%2CP-R\">Ittihadiya statement<\/a> that is otherwise scant on details.
