Deeq A. Posted January 29, 2018 President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi affirmed that “there is no crisis” between Egypt, Ethiopia, and Sudan, describing the three countries as one state, following a tripartite summit on Monday. “There are responsible leaders who met, agreed, and there is no harm to any party,” Sisi said at the end of his three-nation summit, with Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir and Ethiopian Prime Minister Haile Mariam Desalegn. Sisi told the Egyptian, Ethiopian and Sudanese people: “Be absolutely reassured. There is no crisis. We are all one and there is no harm to any party.” Bashir and Desalegn reiterated assurances. The summit was held on the sidelines of the 30-member African Union summit, which ends on Monday in the Ethiopian capital Addis. In a response to a question by reporters on whether the crisis caused by the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) had been resolved, Sisi proclaimed “there is no crisis.” Similarly, Bashir followed, “there is no more crisis.” Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
