Africa-Press<\/a> – Ethiopia<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>July 13\/2021 (ENA) Ethiopia is committed to bringing the AU-led trilateral process on the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) to a successful conclusion aiming to reach a mutually acceptable outcome, Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.<\/p>\n

In its statement issued today, the Ministry stated that the AU-led process is an important vehicle to address each party\u2019s concerns.<\/p>\n

The trilateral negotiations on GERD have been underway to reach an outcome on the first filling and annual operation of the GERD, as per the Declaration of Principles, it stated.<\/p>\n

It is regrettable, however, to witness that the progress of the negotiations has been dragged and politicized. Ethiopia has made its position clear time and again that this is unproductive and bringing the subject matter to the United Nations Security Council was and is unhelpful and far from the mandate of the Council, it added.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is recognized that the AU-led process is an important vehicle to address each party\u2019s concerns and they have been able to reach understanding on a considerable number of issues through this setting\u201d the Ministry said.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the process has also revealed the longstanding challenges which have to do with the absence of water treaty and basin-wide mechanism on the Nile.<\/p>\n

According to the Ministry, Ethiopia is committed to bringing the AU-led trilateral process to a successful conclusion aiming to reach a mutually acceptable outcome.<\/p>\n

It is prepared and ready to work on the phased approach proposed by the Chairperson of the African Union, and, therefore, encourages both Egypt and Sudan to negotiate in good faith to bring the process to fruition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
