Africa-Press-Ethiopia \u200b<\/a>Ethiopia “tells lies” about Egypt\u2019s water and share of the Nile River’s water, Egyptian Minister of Irrigation and Water Resources Mohamed Abdel-Ati said on Sunday while addressing the Senate\u2019s Agriculture and Irrigation Committee in a meeting to discuss the ministry\u2019s 2050 strategy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are facing negative propaganda that Egypt is having the lion’s share of the Nile River\u2019s water, which is not true,\u201d Abdel-Ati said.<\/p>\n

The minister explained that Egypt has no green water \u2013 the accumulated water in soil and vegetation after rainfall \u2013 while \u201ca state like Ethiopia plants 90 million feddans from rainwater… and has more blue water than Egypt.\u201d<\/p>\n

There are lakes that reserve up to 50 billion cubic metres (bcm) in Ethiopia in addition to the Tekeze Dam, the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), and the groundwater, Abdel-Ati noted.<\/p>\n

Groundwater aquifers in Ethiopia lie at a depth ranging from 20 to 30 metres, he said, while aquifers in Egypt can be at a depth of around 100 metres.<\/p>\n

Nile shares and accords<\/p>\n

\u201cI am referring to Ethiopia because it tells lies about the water file in Egypt,\u201d Abdel-Ati said during Sunday\u2019s meeting, condemning the upstream country\u2019s references to so-called \u201ccolonial treaties.\u201d<\/p>\n

Repeated statements by Ethiopian officials have rejected the allegedly called \u201ccolonial agreements\u201d of Nile water shares singed in 1902, declaring it is \u201cunacceptable\u201d for Sudan and Egypt to use these historical agreements as reference points while negotiating the GERD crisis.<\/p>\n

The Anglo-Ethiopian treaty was signed in 1902 between the United Kingdom \u2013 representing Egypt and Sudan \u2013 and Ethiopia \u2013 represented by Emperor Menelik II of Abyssinia. While the agreement has prohibited the Ethiopian construction of any waterworks across the Blue Nile that would affect the river\u2019s natural flow, it has granted sovereignty of the then Sudanese Benishangul region to Ethiopia.<\/p>\n

Ethiopia was not party to other Nile water accords such as the 1929 agreement and its 1959 supplementary agreement.<\/p>\n

In May, Sudan denounced the Ethiopian rejection of accords on Nile water shares and urged Addis Ababa to commit to the international agreements it signed as \u201can independent state\u201d as disavowing these agreements means \u201ccompromising sovereignty\u201d over the Benishangul region on which Addis Ababa is building the GERD.<\/p>\n

The two downstream countries have rejected Ethiopia’s attempts to include the renegotiating of the Nile Water agreements in GERD talks.<\/p>\n

Egypt\u2019s President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi has repeatedly called on Ethiopia not to compromise Cairo\u2019s share of Nile water, saying \u201call options are open,\u201d and stressing that \u201ccooperation is better than fighting.\u201d<\/p>\n

Egypt \u2014 which relies on the Nile for up to 90 percent of its fresh water \u2014 and also Sudan have constantly voiced concerns over the GERD\u2019s potential impact on their water security in the absence of a legally binding deal regulating its filling and operation.<\/p>\n

Cairo and Khartoum have been negotiating with Addis Ababa for a decade now to reach a comprehensive and legally binding agreement over GERD but to no avail as has been seeking mere guidelines that can be revised at any time.<\/p>\n

For the same reason the latest round of African Union-sponsored talks to resolve the GERD dispute collapsed in April.<\/p>\n

After the United Nations Security Council released a presidential statement in September encouraging the three countries to return to the negotiations table, they have expressed their readiness to engage in a new round of talks AU-sponsored talks.<\/p>\n

Managing water resources<\/p>\n

Abdel-Ati affirmed during the meeting that Egyptian state is always keen on successfully managing its water file.<\/p>\n

There is no doubt that the water crisis worsens with time, the Egyptian minister said, but the state will not allow a water crisis to occur in the country and it raises awareness of the importance of rationalizing consumption.<\/p>\n

\u201cEgypt applies the concept of optimal use of water resources,\u201d Abdel-Ati stated on Sunday, adding that Lo\u00efc Fauchon, President of the World Water Council, has praised Egypt’s management of the water file and recommended its experience to be studied.<\/p>\n

Egypt, which is considered one of the most water-scarce countries in the world, receives around 60 bcm annually \u2013 mainly from the Nile \u2013 while its needs stand at around 114 bcm, placing the 102-million country well below the international threshold for water scarcity, at 560 cubic metres per person annually.<\/p>\n

In previous statements of Abdel-Ati, he explained the large gap in water resources in Egypt is overcome by importing 54 percent of its virtual water, which is the embedded water required to produce commodities, and reusing 42 percent of its renewable water.<\/p>\n

Egypt has developed a four-pronged National Water Resources Plan, running through 2037 and based on rationalising water use, improving water quality, providing additional water resources, and creating a climate suitable for optimal water management, the minister added.<\/p>\n

Egypt has also drawn a strategy for its water resources until 2050 at a cost of EGP 900 billion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
