KHARTOUM, 24 April, 2021 (TON): If Ethiopia plan to fill dam on the Nile without a deal with Sudan and Egypt, Sudan will take legal action against Ethiopia; Khartoum warned.

“Ethiopia has objected to the invitation of Sudanese Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok for a three-way summit and we see that there is no justification for that,” Water Minister Yasser Abbas tweeted.

If Ethiopia goes ahead with the filling, Sudan “would file lawsuits against the Italian company constructing the dam and the Ethiopian government,” Abbas warned.

The tensions over the dam come as Sudan’s relations with Egypt warm while its relations with Ethiopia have been hit by a dispute over the use of the Fashaga farmland near their common border.

However, there had been a tripartite dispute between Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia over a decade over the filling and operation of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) which broke ground in 2011.
