Filling and operating the dam "would jeopardize the water security, food security, and indeed, the very existence of over 100 million Egyptians, who are entirely dependent on the Nile River for their livelihood," Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry said in a letter to the UN Security Council dated May 1.
Buuxinta iyo howl-galinta biyo-xidheenka "waxay halis gelin doontaa amniga biyaha, amniga cunnada, iyo xaqiiqdii jiritaanka 100 milyan oo Masaari ah, kuwaasi oo noloshooda ay ku xidhan tahay Webiga Nile," waxaa sidaas lagu yidhi warqad uu wasiirka arrimaha dibedda Masar Sameh Shoukry u diray Golaha Ammaanka QM oo ku taariikheysan 1-da May.
