Egyptian president thanks Trump for dam mediation
Cape Argus
|January 19, 2026
EGYPTIAN President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi thanked his US counterpart Donald Trump at the weekend for offering to serve as a mediator with Ethiopia over sharing water from a Nile mega-dam at the centre of more than a decade of tensions.
-
Trump had said last week that he was “ready to restart US mediation” to resolve the question of water sharing along the Nile, upon which Egypt relies for 97% of its water needs.
Sisi said he welcomed “Trump's attention to the central importance of the Nile River issue for Egypt, as it represents the lifeline of the Egyptian people” in a post on X.
He added that he had a desire to cooperate with other countries along the river “without harming any party”.
