Speaking to BBC Focus on Africa, Abdelatty said that 13 years of negotiations have failed to produce \u201cany solution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He noted that relations between Egypt and Ethiopia have \u201cfurther deteriorated\u201d since the dam\u2019s inauguration, warning that the international community should be \u201cconcerned\u201d about the worsening situation. Despite the breakdown in talks, Abdelatty stressed that Egypt \u201cwill uphold its water security\u201d in line with international law.<\/p>\n<p>The minister argued that since previous negotiations had yielded no results, \u201cthere is no need to hold further talks.\u201d He described the dam as a &#8220;unilateral move\u201d and adding that it&#8217;s \u201cillegal,\u201d reflecting Cairo\u2019s official position.<\/p>\n<p>Abdelatty further stated that the project is \u201cnot in line with international law,\u201d explaining that \u201cany transboundary river must be governed by international principles. This means it must be properly notified and must not cause harm.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A month earlier, President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi declared that Egypt would \u201ctake all necessary measures\u201d to safeguard its national interests and water security. He had previously warned that Egypt would \u201cnot turn a blind eye\u201d to what he called Ethiopia\u2019s \u201cirresponsible\u201d management of the dam.<\/p>\n<p>In response, Ethiopia\u2019s Ministry of Water and Energy issued a statement asserting that \u201cEthiopia will not give up its right to use the Nile.\u201d The ministry added that \u201cdespite increasing pressure from Ethiopia\u2019s enemies, the country\u2019s progress will not be reversed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to BBC Focus on Africa, Abdelatty described the GERD as \u201ca unilateral move taken outside international law. This is regrettable. We do not recognize what they did without consulting us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the United Nations General Assembly in late September, the foreign minister accused Ethiopia of \u201cendangering the lives of millions of people downstream\u201d and announced that Egypt would take the matter to the International Court of Justice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have been negotiating for more than 13 years without reaching any agreement. It is regrettable because we were negotiating in good faith,\u201d Abdelatty said. \u201cBut the other side, unfortunately, used this negotiation period to change the situation on the ground.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cWe made it clear a year ago that the negotiation process had reached a point where it could not continue. There will be no further talks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Abdelatty concluded that relations between Egypt and Ethiopia are currently \u201cat a standstill,\u201d warning that \u201cif the dam causes us harm, we will exercise our full right to protect our national interests and water security in accordance with international law.\u201d<\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Egypt Rules Out Further Talks with Ethiopia Over Renaissance Dam. \u2014 Egypt\u2019s Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty has told the BBC that there will be \u201cno further talks\u201d with Ethiopia regarding the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD).
