The President of Egypt: Water security is a shared responsibility that requires effective international cooperation and adequate funding. Egypt respects and supports the right of all the Nile Basin countries to develop. We emphasize the importance of an inclusive framework that includes all the Nile Basin countries. The way to bring the Nile Basin countries together is to address their concerns through an agreed amendment or an attached protocol as part of the consultation process. Egypt is working with its partners to raise funding for water projects in Africa.
