Ethiopia Sudan military chiefs agree on force to protect GERD project
A high-level technical delegation led by Egyptian Minister of Water Resources and Irrigation Mohamed Abdel Ati headed to Ethiopia on Friday for the negotiations.
The meeting also aims to adhere on the agreed articles of Declaration of Principles signed in 2015 between the leaders of the three countries regarding the need to complete the studies on the dam to avoid any possible negative effects on the downstream states.
The deal was reached on Thursday in Khartoum in a meeting between Ethiopia's Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir.
Egypt and Ethiopia are at loggerheads over the construction of the $4 billion-hydroelectric project.
According to a statement issued by Ethiopia's Minister of Foreign Affairs Dr Workneh Gebeyehu following the talks between the two leaders in Khartoum, their countries agreed to immediately implement the agreement in developing and jointly managing the port.

Ahmed in his first trip outside the capital Addis Ababa went to the conflict-hit Somali regional state, followed by a meeting with residents of Ambo town in Ethiopia's largest Oromia regional state, a town that has been a hotbed of protests for the past few years. However, the talks never took place.
In March 2015, the three countries signed an agreement which includes ten basic principles, majority dealing with the protection of the rights and interests of water.
Differences on the dam were announced after the seventeenth meeting of the tripartite technical committee held in Cairo at the presence of water ministers from the three countries in November 2017.
But the talks have been hampered by disagreements.
Egypt depends entirely on Nile water for drinking and irrigation purposes, reiterating consistently its "historical right" to the river guaranteed in the 1929 and 1959 Nile agreements, which granted the country 87 percent of Nile water and the right to veto or approve irrigation projects in the upstream countries.
