Golden Nile
The waters of the Nile, the long African-Mediterranean river, are again under threat. Egypt and Sudan, the states that mostly benefit from the river resources, are currently facing the claims of the other Nile basin states for a fair share of its waters. Ethiopia loudly expresses its demands. Meanwhile, Israel Minister of Foreign Affairs embarks in an African tour, China strongly inverts in hydro-power development in Ethiopia, and Italy is funding million dollars projects to improve water management within the Nile basin states. Many actors involved and crossed interests in the race for the African’s gold.
