Tripartite meeting to be held in Cairo to discuss findings on Ethiopia's Renaissance Dam impact

Egyptian irrigation minister Hossam Moghazi said the next tripartite meeting will take place in Cairo on the first of July to discuss the findings of the two European consultancy firms that conducted studies on the impact of Ethiopia's Grand Renaissance Dam, MENA reported Sunday.

Moghazi said that Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan will receive the French Artelia Group and the Dutch company reports on the impact of the dam on 22 June so they can read it and discuss it during their meeting in the Egyptian capital.

The last tripartite meeting also took place in Cairo early May, when representatives from the three countries met during a two-day visit to discuss the latest developments.

Moghazi expressed his optimism ahead of the meeting that is scheduled to discuss the technical and financial results of the impact of the Renaissance Dam provided by of the consultancy firms.
