Former U.S. President Donald Trump has offered to restart American mediation between Egypt and Ethiopia to resolve the long-standing dispute over Nile River water sharing, centered on Ethiopia's Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD). Trump emphasized the need for fair negotiations and a U.S. role in monitoring agreements to ensure predictable water supplies for Egypt and Sudan while allowing Ethiopia to generate electricity. The dispute involves concerns over water security and regional stability, with previous mediation efforts by various parties failing to reach a lasting resolution.
