النزاع الأثيوبي المصري حول اقتسام مياه نهر النيل في إطار القانون الدولي المعاصر مع إشارة خاصة إلى سد النهضة الأثيوبي

Abstract EN

Ethiopia, as one of the upper stream states of the Nile river, and Egypt, as one of the down stream states, have Faced many challenges, one of the most important of these challenges is: the distribution of the Nile water among States bordering the river, particularly upon the building of dams, such as, Aswan dam and recently the grand Ethiopian renaissance dam.

There have been several attempts at finding a fair mechanism for the distribution of the waters of the river among the States located along its banks, and that this mechanism was not up to the maturity due to its collision with claim and counterclaim of these states regarding certain acquired rights in the amount of water of the river, particularly the mutual allegations between Ethiopia and Egypt.

Certainly, any fair mechanism will be affected by natural and legal factors: it will inevitably be affected, negatively or positively, by the nature of this river in terms of water, flowing capacity, direction of this river, then gradually, by the following: conventions, international efforts: bilaterally and collectively, in order to create a legal framework for cooperation in the field of river water distribution among riparian countries and by developments of the rules of contemporary international law on non navigational uses of international river.
