Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>s Ababa February 12\/2022 \/ENA\/ Egypt should encourage Ethiopia to finish building the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) quickly because it would serve Egypt as a lifeline and a water bank in drought seasons, taking their own request and account, State Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Redwan Hussien said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe told Sudan that we are ready to exchange data regularly to meet their concerns for the security of their smaller dams, but their position now serves the interests of a third party than that of the Sudanese people,\u201d Ambassador Redwan added.<\/p>\n

The State Minister made the remarks during an interview he has had with Al Arabiya, an Arabic-language satellite television channel based in Dubai.<\/p>\n

The State Minister said Sudan and Egypt should not hold on to their stance because Ethiopians cannot wait indefinitely, expecting the green light to utilize their resources.<\/p>\n

Ethiopia provided more opportunities for Egypt and Sudan to benefit from the dam, notwithstanding their failure to appreciate it, according to Redwan.<\/p>\n

He said Ethiopia must now use its resources, causing no significant harm to downstream states. The dam is a beckon of regional cooperation and integration than an issue of bickering, he added.<\/p>\n

Regarding the recent political situation in Sudan, Ambassador Redwan said all parties must realize that Sudan comes first, and the interest of the Sudanese stands above all appeals.<\/p>\n

If parties act calmly and rationally by putting the interest of the Sudanese people above everything else, he said they would find a way to overcome their differences.<\/p>\n

Asked if there is any Ethiopian initiative to resolve the Sudanese crisis, the State Minister said the Sudanese people have the wisdom to solve their problems without external intervention.<\/p>\n

Redwan noted that military power would not give a lasting solution to the border conflict between Ethiopia and Sudan, necessitating genuine proposals on the table as Ethiopia did.<\/p>\n

Speaking on aid access to Tigray, he said the government of Ethiopia did everything it could and cooperated with humanitarian operators to ensure unfettered access into the region.<\/p>\n

However, the rebels chose to obstruct the delivery of humanitarian aid to advance their political agenda, he added.<\/p>\n

On foreign hands meddling in the conflict in Ethiopia, the State Minister said, the government knows that many have interests to weaken Ethiopia.<\/p>\n

Many of these interventions are manifested through attempts to downplay and discourage even the positive deeds of the Ethiopian government, he stated.<\/p>\n
