This is well researched and presented. Excellent work, thank you.
On a side note, the lucrative Egyptian cotton industry could play a part in this issue, cotton requires a large amount of water for production.
I’m from South Sudan and I can tell u know the history section very well 👏🏾
That 66/22 that you mentioned relates to the run off water that naturally flows into the territory of Sudan and then Egypt. So essentially that 1959 agreement between Sudan and Egypt was to divvy up the leftover between the two nations. That’s why Ethiopia and other Nile basin countries were note part of that agreement.
65% of Ethiopians doesn't use electricity, which means they deforest plants to cook food, to get light, which also lead desiccation in the area. so finishing the Ethiopian renaissance Dam quickly as much as possible is a solution to prevent Egypt from water scarcity.
Nile river in African continent is such a gift to those people who live around that river has so much of natural resources which INTURN can be useful for so many good aspects like farming and agriculture......
Nice work..Iam from Ethiopia ,I was looking in to videos regarding Nile river to learn what the river means to Egypt and to understand their point of view and I found it really helpful, you did a good job by presenting what is means to all the country involved.thanks
I've learned so much from your videos! Can't believe it's so underrated :(
What a wonderful pair of documentaries. Such a fair explanation of such a crucial subject. I shall watch these again to learn better. Thank you.
What an explanation! Even by average brainer like me can understand the issue,.. thank you team for the great educational video
By far the best ever channel I have ever seen , greatest work brother
Such a great work. Perfect unbiased presentation of the issue. Keep the good work going. Love from Egypt 🇪🇬🇪🇬❤️❤️
This is a great video explaining the problem in the region, thanks for such amazing content!
Its an interesting video but lucks much much detail about Ethiopia and the lives of Ethiopian people. For the next time you should also talk about how Sudan built 3 dams and didn't affect Egypt that much. Its Egypt centric video but at least better than other Egypt media,
This channel is absurdly underrated. Subscribed!
Probally the best chanel out there for me!
To all of you guys saying things along the lines of "The nile belongs to Ethiopia they can do what they want" While there is some truth to that statment i want to remind you that going by that logic, the nile belongs to every country that it passes through, like how each country sharing a sea can only claim parts of it. Just because the source is in Ethiopia doesn't mean that the nile belongs solely to it. This isn't anarchy you have to realize you're dealing with people's lives here you can't just do things just because you want to, Egypt already has a water shortage if the dam isn't built and operated responsibly the results would be catastrophic to the people in Egypt. Having the source be in your border doesn't mean you can do as you please with it. You can't go out in your garden and light fires or fireworks even if you wanted to because you're not only putting yourself at risk you're also subjecting your neighbours to that. Using the "They can do whatever they want because they own it" argument is a bit stupid in my opinion, Egypt has planes, does that mean it can bomb Ethiopia becuase it wants to? No, because there are people living there that would be negatively affected by this. I'm Egyptian, we more than anyone understand what it's like to live in poverty under abusive dictatorial goverments. I'm not against the dam, i think we need to reach an agreement of how to build and operate it while minimizing the damage it can do to Egypt and Sudan.
Rate of evaporation in Egypt is higherthan in ethiopia, you should mention it.
YouTube is obnoxious. I’ve watched every one of your vids but it didn’t put this in my sub box
