  1. This is like a fox guarding the hen house. Are they going to Ethipia tell why Egypt is entitled to Nile waters or to work with Ethiopia to share the resources. I do not trust the Egyptians when it comes to sharing water resources. They belive that they are entitled to Nile water resources and everybody else should get permission from the them to develop its water resources assuming they would allow it.
