Nice video just one correction. The Nile in Ethiopia is reffered to as the black nile because it is mixed with fertile soil and minerals when it meets at the border with the white nile that's the starting point of the blue nile.

What you mentioned is history Since Aswan dam started storing silt (soil) started precipitating in the lake (Egypt lost the natural fertilizer and had to use industrial one)
Thank you, I watched this with my two sons as part of their geography as we home school due to Covid 19. It was really informative. What helps them learn, is enough visuals to help them to take in the information provided by the voiceover.
Ethiopia must control the Blue Nile waters and set terms for water use in Egyptian brothers and sisters. It was infact very wrong for Egypt to unilaterally built the Aswan high dam and flood, obliterate and destroy the Nubian people's way of life. The Egyptian government should have discussed the Nile river water use by the rest of the 9 Nile basin countries. The bottom line now is that Egypt needs to implement drip irrigation, explore the use of groundwater, built desalination plants and cut down on their discharge of municipal and industrial waste into river Nile. The key thing that they should focus on is to work with upstream river Nile countries to plant trees to increase forest cover and reduce deposition of silt into lake Tana, the source of Blue Nile. Thank you.
First, Egypt does not need to take approvals from other countries to build the High Dam, because its construction will not affect any country, because Egypt is the last country through which the Nile passes, in addition to that the Nubians were moved to larger and better homes than the old ones.
As well as the Blue Nile, most of the waters of the White Nile also originate in south-western Ethiopian highlands & the waters flow to the White Nile via a major tributary named 'Baro' [in Ethiopia] & 'Sobat' in South Sudan. Most of the waters of the White Nile that originate in Lake Victoria do not actually reach Khartoum (Sudan, where the two main branches of the Nile meet) & Egypt but are dispersed in the massive 'Sud' marshes located in South Sudan. In total, Ethiopia contributes about 85-90% of the total waters of the Nile that reach Khartoum & Egypt.
I was a bit surprised when the figure mentioned was 60% and can rise to 80% in the rainy season. I do not remember which source it was, but the figure 86%. Also, attributing a 20% increment due to rain is madness. Sobat and other tributaries to the White Nile originating in Ethiopia join the white nile downstream to the Sudd Wetlands where substantial evaporation takes place.
@@lukak3 - yes. Thanks. Also, the vast Sudd swamps in South Sudan contribute to the rains that fall on the Ethiopian highlands & fed all the rivers that are the major tributaries of the Nile river. In a sense, the Sudd Swamps - along the Congo Rain forests & the Gulf of Guinea [Atlantic Ocean] - is the source of moisture & clouds that fall as summer rains on the Ethiopian highlands - the same rains that also feed all those Nile tributaries as well as giving moisture to the small farms on the Ethiopian highlands which are 100% rain-fed [do not use irrigation]. So, logic suggests that attempting to dry the Sudd Swamps as a series of Egyptian & Sudanese regimes have tried could result in reduced amount of rains on the Ethiopian highlands. And, that would have worse consequences for Egypt & Sudan as well as for Ethiopia. Less amount of rains on the Ethiopian highlands due to the drying-up f the Sudd swamps means less water would flow into the tributaries that feed the Nile. Less rains on the Ethiopian highlands could also push more Ethiopian farmers to use irrigation instead of just relying on the rains - which means that even less water would flow to the Nile via the tributaries. Hence, it is better to leave nature alone, reduce human interference or dam building madness rationalised on the whims of nationalistic politicians & engineers...

More than 90 percent of Egyptian people use clean water and have electricity. They also have man-made dam. Where as Ethiopia literally the source of the Nile use none from Nile. It is because of Egypt more than a century became a obstacle for Ethiopian not to build the dam. Ethiopia has a right to build a dam on her river and use her natural resources for her nation. Alas!
Sure you have rights to your own river, but you cannot just put our water security at risk. Build a Dam sure, but don't fill it up at such a fast pace to the point it might affect water flow in Egypt.
@@ab_12_8the ancient Egyptians are not the modern day Egyptians. The ancient Egyptians are in today's sudan, South sudan and Ethiopia. The modern Egyptians are actually invaders from middle east. The whole of Egypt all the way to South sudan and Ethiopia was all kush empire 😊😊
Only 10% to 25% of Ethiopia’s population has electricity’s As of Egypt 🇪🇬 has 90% to 98% of it’s population has electricity so in this case I believe Ethiopia 🇪🇹 should have most of the water
Yeah they already have most of the water just check Ethiopian amount of water for person and Egyptian too and come to say the same thing again And check that percentage of electricity you said and its sources I just hate to argue with stupid brainwashed Bs !!
85 percent the water came from Ethiopia I think ethiopia needs this water more than Egypt according to data Ethiopia people they have 25 percent electricity and Egypt have 95 percent.
Egyptians will not die from thirst stop being dramatic !! Secondly Egypt should invest in alternative ways of getting water and thirdly ethopia is gonna use the Nile river to it's full advantage
@@prosl11 Dramatic?!! We're one of the most needy countries for water, we sure want you also to benefit from Nile, but with no harm for us, take more time to fill you dam just what we require only !!
It is important to note that Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda are not heavily dependent on Lake Victoria (they need to change that name to the East African Lake) for water consumption. It`s only the communities that live around the lake that are dependent on it for water, but I wouldn`t say heavily dependent. It`s more of a source of fish than water. There are plenty of water sources in these 3 countries but the infrastructure to get this water to the masses is what is lacking. Most of the countries you mentioned there apart from Egypt and Ethiopia, are in what is known as The Great Lakes region.
8 countries sign an agreement for equal share of the Nile river except Egypt and Sudan but non of the 8 countries are trying to use their water source b/c of the pressure they are facing from Egyp0t. I think GERD will be an eye opener for the rest of this countries
@@peterdavid9636 We r talking abt using water natural water resource which starts from the northern part of Ethiopia BLUE NILE , we r talking abt building dam not the port there is a difference!
Thank you so much. That is the ultimate goal just at the moment it is not possible since making these videos takes a long time and the channel isn't profitable enough yet to allow me to commit to it full time.
Rwanda and Uganda plans to build a huge dam over the White Nile river. And also the big and the number one dam in Africa - Ethiopian Hydroelectric dam is also almost finished . The time has come to Africa. Africa rise ✊
The thing is Aswan's dam doesn't affect anyone because Egypt is the last county that the Nile flows in , but Ethiopia's dam well certainly affect Egypt as we will be 85% dryer , Egypt will have to strike the resistance dam
Allah created water for all. Muslims should show good examples like justice, compassion and tenderness like the prophet. Evil are those who are ignorant and zalim towards another human beings. This include so called Muslims.
@@73oxen The Egyptians didn't care when they flooded ancient heritage and destroyed the nubians homeland where thousands of years of history is gone. They are Muslim btw. So stop with the moral high ground and speak about Egypt first.
@@darkzi1431 brother, high moral is required of by any muslim. Quranic Muslim standards are not defined or represented by the ones who inherited the deen through surname or ethnicity. It is through self soul searching with sincere intentions in seeking our purpose. Of course there are hypocrites and ignorant muslims amongst us doesn't mean they represent Islam. Evidently actions of leaders of "Islamic" countries do not hold parallels to the sacricity of the deen. The deen is not defined by race, nationality, the length of the beard and robes or the amount of brick and mortar mosques but by moral standing and our continuous understanding of the endless realm of knowledge in the creation of the Almigthy. Evil and tyranny in the Islamic world is the biggest syaitan. Allah guides and misguides under his infinite wisdom. My thread is to encourage Muslims to embrace each other and not be too quick in conveniently judge others. That is imperative basic.
Hi, excellent video. Just a small correction : silt is a grain size ike sand or gravel, but smaller than sand and larger than clay. Muddy waters like the blue nile you mentioned carry these sediments in suspensions, which is often deposited during flood events. The sedimente, and therefore the silt, is made up of minerals and not the other way around like you said. These minerals can be decomposed by plants and pedogenetic processes, releasing nutrients.
You have more than 11 rivers, yet you are poor, and you own 950 billion cubic meters of water, while Egypt owns only 55 billion, and the only river is the problem with your minds, ignorance, and hatred against Egypt and its people.
@@user-ti1hf5en9s The Nile is an international river shared by everyone and is not owned by Ethiopia alone, and Ethiopia cannot obtain water from Egypt because Egypt is able to maintain its rights well and Egypt deals with you well and you are very weak, but you do not know the strength of Egypt. I hope you will ask Israel about the strength of Egypt
Nice presentation but it is biased in that it tries to show how important the Nile water is to Egypt which took much of the 10 minutes of the video ignoring the great importance of the water to Ethiopia and Sudan whose people are suffering from poverty.
@@ZAGAD-i2x Sorry to hear such baseless comments . Egypt doesn't want GERD that produces electricity because is affects its water flow. Ethiopia has started producing electricity . Nothing has happened to Egypt . The hidden issue is that it creats a good opportunity for Sudan to use GERD as a reservoir to expand its agricultural development that really affects the flow to Egypt .

Has the Aswan high dam effected any ethiopian? The answer is well no but the truth of the matter is if Ethiopia fill this dam without a binding agreement that would have disastrous consequences on upstream countries, we want to resolve this issue but you're not helping in finding a binding legal agreement
@@ZAGAD-i2x yes it affects ethiopia when you use 70% of the nile river to yourselves big boy Its a SHARED resource that need to be SHARED .. so tell me whats ethiopias share again ???

Finally found yt channel that's sooo relateable with my study 😊 I learn water resources management in Remote Sensing for Hidrology and water resources, thanks and keep making videos👍
You are selfish and reckless! Sudan and Egypt have the right to use THE SAME amount of water. Ethiopia is not more special and not more important than Sudan or Egypt.
I believe and they believe that in order to reach successful negotiation, Egypt should buy Ethiopia's water per liter. Say for example , negotiation on one liter per one dollar. By the way for those of you who don't have any clue about the relation ship between Ethiopia and Egypt, Ethiopia defeated Egypt in many battlefield in centuries ago. Probably history will repeat itself unless Egypt behaves.
You are seriously going to compare ancient warfare with modern warfare? Bro that's like saying Russia could beat the entirety of Europe because they were strong during the Soviet Era and they had the capability during that time which makes no sense. During these times, battles were fought by swords and up close, but now we depend on long distances and range, hell if there is one thing for sure Egypt will mostly rely on it airforce which is pretty big and Ethiopia's army ain't jack $hit considering they are struggling with militias and you think their outdated equipment would stand a chance against a completely modernised army that's the top 10th in the world? Get out of here. If there is one thing for sure Ethiopia has Geography on their side which is kinda irrelevant due to armies in today's world will rely on their own airforce from the sky, which Ethiopia doesn't have. Ethiopia should behave themself, cause they could lead themselves to their own doom if they escalate the situation into a conflict with Egypt and Sudan.
@@totti-wb3yc You don't need all these stuff to make someone believe. I can tell you that no one can defeat Ethiopia, if you don't buy this, I can assure you that Ethiopia can annihilate half of any army who intend to invade. Probably the whole Ethiopians will march to confront any invading army. From the current perspective US almost ceased interfering in Ethiopian affairs, why? Because the consequences are grave. If they dare to touch our land, their army will be meet with devastating scenarios. May be America could be turn to just like normal country rather than as a super power . Regarding Egypt and Sudan: I think Ethiopian can destroy Aswan dam within a minute. And I hope we will completely destroy Sudan army. Finally you know US was defeated in many battles supported with so called modern weapons in Vietnam, Afghanistan, .... So having all kind of weapons don't save you but your capability and confidence will drive you to win.
@@etg9080 so you are saying a bunch of angry farmers can destroy the Sudanese and Egyptian army? Sure if Ethiopia ever gets invaded then most of the country will unite against the invasion but that doesn't make them strong. Also ain't no way in hell Ethiopia will be able to destroy the Aswan Dam with many reasons why: 1. Ethiopia lacks an airforce and it's also outdated. 2. If Ethiopia does target the Aswan Dam Ethiopian aircrafts will be shot down by Egyptian aircrafts before they could even see the Egyptians. 3. Egypt owns lots of Russian air defence and Egypt isn't foolish to leave their most vulnerable Dam without any protection. Hell if Ethiopia does target Aswan Dam then their aircrafts will be shot down just as they enter Sudanese air space due to the Egyptians owning S-300 which is notorious for its long range. Do you seriously think the Egyptians would sit back and relax and let the Ethiopians destroy the Dam? No of course not. And you say "hopefully" they would destroy Aswan Dam, like bro that's like saying "I hopefully will destroy an entire army with one bullet" doesn't make any sense cause it's not even possible and with he current Ethiopian arsenal it's definitely not possible. The US only lost the Vietnamese and Afghanistan war because they were up against experienced militants who are backed by a major power (Russia). The only difference is Ethiopia is not backed by someone and they have mountains and caves but do they have experienced soldiers to use them properly? Sure they might have some but the majority of the Ethiopian population will be inexperienced fighters who will more likely die. Bigger numbers doesn't mean better especially if you lack an airforce. Try again please.
@@totti-wb3yc Why don't you try and see the result. We definitely defeated Italy, Egypt and Sudan in many battle fields and history will repeat itself. Egypt has no its own military weapons produced locally but proud on someone's else asset. Ethiopia will have also any best armament which can destroy Egypt. In order to destroy Aswan dam, it is just enough to drop one huge bomb and then the water can destroy the city. Of course we can. After all if Egypt dare us to come and attack us, that will be its final. We will use the Nile dam 100% for commercial use. What can Egypt do? I told you many times that even so America touch our soil, for sure we will destroy them one by one. the only problem is their air attack. For sure they can't try us with their ground foot soldier. this also apply to Egypt. we will easily destroy them.
Egypt is worry not because the Nile river its because the soil that came from Ethiopia. They need it. Ethiopian soil is a life. 🥰 God bless Ethiopia and the people.
And Egypt still thinks the Nile belongs to them. They do as they wish with its waters for the benefit of their people but start threatening other countries who want to also help their citizens. This is one of the most egregious forms of arrogance that I have witnessed being exhibited on the world stage. Does Egypt btw remember how they displaced the Nubians upon building a second dam? They care much, don't they?
You can help your citizens all you want , Its only a problem when it will start harming Egypt , there’s a solution that will help both sides but people just don’t want to take it
Blue nile it's our future we are tired to be poor we don't have choices so we will die for nile. Egyptian calm down and make peace otherwise we are also ready for war
I wish you would've talked about how the construction of dams on the Nile affects soil fertility that is dependent on silt deposited after every flood and how dams interrupt this process. Also, the challenges faces where silt builds up behind dams causing issues with power generation and other issues.
@@rediettadesse2828 yes, soil that is local isn't shared but I'm talking about the rejuvenation of fertility through seasonal flood waters which occurs upstream and in some cases different countries, such as the Nile.
Jacque Cousteau talked about this exact issue in his documentaries that are decades old. I was surprised there wasn’t any of that discussed in this video either.
Trump is playing mediator here. There is always ongoing peace negotiations between the Arab world and Israel. Part of the deal between the two is that America sides with Egypt to relax tensions with Jews who hold financial and political influence in an election year. You cannot dictate negotiations without the upper hand, that is what Egypt doesn't understand when dealing with Ethiopia. In addition, Ethiopia said so many times that they wouldn't let Egypt suffer from a drought. However, egypt still things they have some sort of significant historical rights to river which is an odd mentality to have.
Nobody has the absolute right in this, I believe every ocean, river, water stream is God's gift to the mankind in general to benefit from it, Conflicts always arise when selfishness come into play. (Sudan, Ethiopia and Egypt) Everyone has an equal right to benefit from these waters.
Trust me, people can tell propaganda from the truth..that is why not many people fell for this outright lie....he got all the facts wrong...for example he doesn't tell us why a colonial treaty which non of the upper riparian nations(the providers) were not party to and does not give a drop of water share is fair? Cos that is all the upper riparians are objecting to, and Egypt is trying to cling on to.....the truth is, Egyptians know too well that there is a win win technical solution but suffer from exaggerated sense of self importance as a country that bases its existence on being a l*ech between the west and middle east, with at most disrespect for black Africans..and this video is just one of their dispatched dogs....
Thank you for the adequate explanation. It is better to have understanding between the countries of the river and taking into account the interest of the other
India is blessed with many large and small rivers. Also we are cleaning our big rivers like Ganga,Yamuna which were highly polluted. Thanks to Modi Government. (Best Government of India.)
From the title, I thought this video is about Nile and the nine basins countries but instead it is all about Egypt. And the next video is about the Grand Renaissance Ethiopian Dam (GRED) and how it is the source of conflict. They (Ethiopians) built with their own money, on their own water, in their own country but some how only Egypt sees a problem with that. We Africans stand with Ethiopia!
What can be done to address this matter. Can water be sourced from nearby oceans, or can Egypt build water storage facilities like those in Singapore and Japan to contain flood waters during the rain season. Considering this, it would be a gargantuan financial investment
There aren’t any nearby oceans, but it would take quite a large amount of effort to bring water from the Red Sea and the Mediterranean to the Nile cities, and process them beforehand.
The river is ABAY not Nile , this is our resource and we are the one and the only one to mange it to use it and to get out our people from poverty . From now on , no body will call Ethiopia poor country .

In total, Ethiopia contributes about 85-90% of the total waters of the Nile that reach Khartoum & Egypt.
I was a bit surprised when the figure mentioned was 60% and can rise to 80% in the rainy season. I do not remember which source it was, but the figure 86%. Also, attributing a 20% increment due to rain is madness. Sobat and other tributaries to the White Nile originating in Ethiopia join the white nile downstream to the Sudd Wetlands where substantial evaporation takes place.
@@lukak3 - yes. Thanks. Also, the vast Sudd swamps in South Sudan contribute to the rains that fall on the Ethiopian highlands & fed all the rivers that are the major tributaries of the Nile river. In a sense, the Sudd Swamps - along the Congo Rain forests & the Gulf of Guinea [Atlantic Ocean] - is the source of moisture & clouds that fall as summer rains on the Ethiopian highlands - the same rains that also feed all those Nile tributaries as well as giving moisture to the small farms on the Ethiopian highlands which are 100% rain-fed [do not use irrigation]. So, logic suggests that attempting to dry the Sudd Swamps as a series of Egyptian & Sudanese regimes have tried could result in reduced amount of rains on the Ethiopian highlands. And, that would have worse consequences for Egypt & Sudan as well as for Ethiopia. Less amount of rains on the Ethiopian highlands due to the drying-up f the Sudd swamps means less water would flow into the tributaries that feed the Nile. Less rains on the Ethiopian highlands could also push more Ethiopian farmers to use irrigation instead of just relying on the rains - which means that even less water would flow to the Nile via the tributaries. Hence, it is better to leave nature alone, reduce human interference or dam building madness rationalised on the whims of nationalistic politicians & engineers...

More than 90 percent of Egyptian people use clean water and have electricity. They also have man-made dam. Where as Ethiopia literally the source of the Nile use none from Nile. It is because of Egypt more than a century became a obstacle for Ethiopian not to build the dam.
Ethiopia has a right to build a dam on her river and use her natural resources for her nation. Alas!
egypt has relied on the nile for over 7000 years, even before ethiopia was inhabited as a civilization so it to has a right to the water.
Sure you have rights to your own river, but you cannot just put our water security at risk. Build a Dam sure, but don't fill it up at such a fast pace to the point it might affect water flow in Egypt.
@@ab_12_8the ancient Egyptians are not the modern day Egyptians. The ancient Egyptians are in today's sudan, South sudan and Ethiopia. The modern Egyptians are actually invaders from middle east. The whole of Egypt all the way to South sudan and Ethiopia was all kush empire 😊😊
Thank you brother. I am a SriLankan, It was helpful to my education works.
Only 10% to 25% of Ethiopia’s population has electricity’s As of Egypt 🇪🇬 has 90% to 98% of it’s population has electricity so in this case I believe Ethiopia 🇪🇹 should have most of the water
Yeah they already have most of the water just check Ethiopian amount of water for person and Egyptian too and come to say the same thing again
And check that percentage of electricity you said and its sources
I just hate to argue with stupid brainwashed Bs !!
They have alot of rivers we only have the Nile river so to produce electricity making 100 million thirsty +the Nile is for all not for a country
Coffee and The Nile are The brand of Ethiopia as Boeing and Coca cola are The Brand of USA
No one can stop us using our river.
And no one can stop all the other countries from using it as well. There’s enough for all. We just need to learn to share and conserve!
85 percent the water came from Ethiopia I think ethiopia needs this water more than Egypt according to data Ethiopia people they have 25 percent electricity and Egypt have 95 percent.
Ya man
Fair share of water is fair than political agitation. Do you know 10% of Ethiopians have only electricity while Egyptian have 100%. BE FAIR.
So Egyptians die from thirst for Ethiopians to have electricity??
Egyptians will not die from thirst stop being dramatic !! Secondly Egypt should invest in alternative ways of getting water and thirdly ethopia is gonna use the Nile river to it's full advantage
@@prosl11 Dramatic?!!
We're one of the most needy countries for water, we sure want you also to benefit from Nile, but with no harm for us, take more time to fill you dam just what we require only !!
It is important to note that Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda are not heavily dependent on Lake Victoria (they need to change that name to the East African Lake) for water consumption. It`s only the communities that live around the lake that are dependent on it for water, but I wouldn`t say heavily dependent. It`s more of a source of fish than water. There are plenty of water sources in these 3 countries but the infrastructure to get this water to the masses is what is lacking. Most of the countries you mentioned there apart from Egypt and Ethiopia, are in what is known as The Great Lakes region.
8 countries sign an agreement for equal share of the Nile river except Egypt and Sudan but non of the 8 countries are trying to use their water source b/c of the pressure they are facing from Egyp0t. I think GERD will be an eye opener for the rest of this countries

It is through self soul searching with sincere intentions in seeking our purpose. Of course there are hypocrites and ignorant muslims amongst us doesn't mean they represent Islam. Evidently actions of leaders of "Islamic" countries do not hold parallels to the sacricity of the deen. The deen is not defined by race, nationality, the length of the beard and robes or the amount of brick and mortar mosques but by moral standing and our continuous understanding of the endless realm of knowledge in the creation of the Almigthy. Evil and tyranny in the Islamic world is the biggest syaitan. Allah guides and misguides under his infinite wisdom. My thread is to encourage Muslims to embrace each other and not be too quick in conveniently judge others. That is imperative basic.

Hi, excellent video. Just a small correction : silt is a grain size ike sand or gravel, but smaller than sand and larger than clay. Muddy waters like the blue nile you mentioned carry these sediments in suspensions, which is often deposited during flood events. The sedimente, and therefore the silt, is made up of minerals and not the other way around like you said. These minerals can be decomposed by plants and pedogenetic processes, releasing nutrients.
You have that backwards. Silt is smaller than clay and larger than sand.
Thank you so much, I learn more about white Nile and blue Nile I really appreciate you

The best explanation of the Nile, the history, and countries dependent on its source
The fact that you rotated the map by 90° is really messing with my brain
Interesting, at 4:30 the horizontal Africa continent does look like mirror of Australia continent.
No, it does not.
It is the time for Ethiopia to use the Nile!after afew month every things completing and serve Ethiopian people
You are selfish and reckless! Sudan and Egypt have the right to use THE SAME amount of water. Ethiopia is not more special and not more important than Sudan or Egypt.
I believe and they believe that in order to reach successful negotiation, Egypt should buy Ethiopia's water per liter. Say for example , negotiation on one liter per one dollar.
By the way for those of you who don't have any clue about the relation ship between Ethiopia and Egypt, Ethiopia defeated Egypt in many battlefield in centuries ago. Probably history will repeat itself unless Egypt behaves.
@lewangoalski You are joking! No one can defeat Ethiopia.
You are seriously going to compare ancient warfare with modern warfare? Bro that's like saying Russia could beat the entirety of Europe because they were strong during the Soviet Era and they had the capability during that time which makes no sense. During these times, battles were fought by swords and up close, but now we depend on long distances and range, hell if there is one thing for sure Egypt will mostly rely on it airforce which is pretty big and Ethiopia's army ain't jack $hit considering they are struggling with militias and you think their outdated equipment would stand a chance against a completely modernised army that's the top 10th in the world? Get out of here. If there is one thing for sure Ethiopia has Geography on their side which is kinda irrelevant due to armies in today's world will rely on their own airforce from the sky, which Ethiopia doesn't have. Ethiopia should behave themself, cause they could lead themselves to their own doom if they escalate the situation into a conflict with Egypt and Sudan.
@@totti-wb3yc You don't need all these stuff to make someone believe. I can tell you that no one can defeat Ethiopia, if you don't buy this, I can assure you that Ethiopia can annihilate half of any army who intend to invade. Probably the whole Ethiopians will march to confront any invading army. From the current perspective US almost ceased interfering in Ethiopian affairs, why? Because the consequences are grave. If they dare to touch our land, their army will be meet with devastating scenarios. May be America could be turn to just like normal country rather than as a super power .
Regarding Egypt and Sudan: I think Ethiopian can destroy Aswan dam within a minute. And I hope we will completely destroy Sudan army.
Finally you know US was defeated in many battles supported with so called modern weapons in Vietnam, Afghanistan, ....
So having all kind of weapons don't save you but your capability and confidence will drive you to win.
@@etg9080 so you are saying a bunch of angry farmers can destroy the Sudanese and Egyptian army? Sure if Ethiopia ever gets invaded then most of the country will unite against the invasion but that doesn't make them strong.
Also ain't no way in hell Ethiopia will be able to destroy the Aswan Dam with many reasons why:
1. Ethiopia lacks an airforce and it's also outdated.
2. If Ethiopia does target the Aswan Dam Ethiopian aircrafts will be shot down by Egyptian aircrafts before they could even see the Egyptians.
3. Egypt owns lots of Russian air defence and Egypt isn't foolish to leave their most vulnerable Dam without any protection. Hell if Ethiopia does target Aswan Dam then their aircrafts will be shot down just as they enter Sudanese air space due to the Egyptians owning S-300 which is notorious for its long range. Do you seriously think the Egyptians would sit back and relax and let the Ethiopians destroy the Dam? No of course not.
And you say "hopefully" they would destroy Aswan Dam, like bro that's like saying "I hopefully will destroy an entire army with one bullet" doesn't make any sense cause it's not even possible and with he current Ethiopian arsenal it's definitely not possible.
The US only lost the Vietnamese and Afghanistan war because they were up against experienced militants who are backed by a major power (Russia). The only difference is Ethiopia is not backed by someone and they have mountains and caves but do they have experienced soldiers to use them properly? Sure they might have some but the majority of the Ethiopian population will be inexperienced fighters who will more likely die. Bigger numbers doesn't mean better especially if you lack an airforce.
Try again please.
@@totti-wb3yc Why don't you try and see the result. We definitely defeated Italy, Egypt and Sudan in many battle fields and history will repeat itself.
Egypt has no its own military weapons produced locally but proud on someone's else asset. Ethiopia will have also any best armament which can destroy Egypt.
In order to destroy Aswan dam, it is just enough to drop one huge bomb and then the water can destroy the city. Of course we can.
After all if Egypt dare us to come and attack us, that will be its final. We will use the Nile dam 100% for commercial use. What can Egypt do?
I told you many times that even so America touch our soil, for sure we will destroy them one by one. the only problem is their air attack.
For sure they can't try us with their ground foot soldier. this also apply to Egypt. we will easily destroy them.
Poor research! Blue Nile contributes 86% of the the overall water flow to Egypt.
true its 86% !!
He didn't say anything that contradicts that though.
86% only during the short rainy season. The rest it's 60%.
I am Egyptian and I thought it is 100% of water in Egypt
Go back to the story or school
Egypt is worry not because the Nile river its because the soil that came from Ethiopia. They need it. Ethiopian soil is a life. 🥰 God bless Ethiopia and the people.
And Egypt still thinks the Nile belongs to them. They do as they wish with its waters for the benefit of their people but start threatening other countries who want to also help their citizens.
This is one of the most egregious forms of arrogance that I have witnessed being exhibited on the world stage.
Does Egypt btw remember how they displaced the Nubians upon building a second dam?
They care much, don't they?
You can help your citizens all you want , Its only a problem when it will start harming Egypt , there’s a solution that will help both sides but people just don’t want to take it
didn't gerd also displace tens of thousands of people living behind the dam??
@@zombieat mostly projects like these displace people. How you take care of them afterwards is what matters.

Blue nile it's our future we are tired to be poor we don't have choices so we will die for nile. Egyptian calm down and make peace otherwise we are also ready for war
I wish you would've talked about how the construction of dams on the Nile affects soil fertility that is dependent on silt deposited after every flood and how dams interrupt this process. Also, the challenges faces where silt builds up behind dams causing issues with power generation and other issues.
Soil is not a shared resource .. only water is ... so thats not in the equation
@@rediettadesse2828 yes, soil that is local isn't shared but I'm talking about the rejuvenation of fertility through seasonal flood waters which occurs upstream and in some cases different countries, such as the Nile.

Trump is playing mediator here. There is always ongoing peace negotiations between the Arab world and Israel. Part of the deal between the two is that America sides with Egypt to relax tensions with Jews who hold financial and political influence in an election year. You cannot dictate negotiations without the upper hand, that is what Egypt doesn't understand when dealing with Ethiopia. In addition, Ethiopia said so many times that they wouldn't let Egypt suffer from a drought. However, egypt still things they have some sort of significant historical rights to river which is an odd mentality to have.

What can be done to address this matter. Can water be sourced from nearby oceans, or can Egypt build water storage facilities like those in Singapore and Japan to contain flood waters during the rain season. Considering this, it would be a gargantuan financial investment
There aren’t any nearby oceans, but it would take quite a large amount of effort to bring water from the Red Sea and the Mediterranean to the Nile cities, and process them beforehand.
Rainfalls aren't that common in Egypt, yes it rains but it only happens in winter and it mostly happens in coastal cities like Alexandria.
