Have out for him they have a military with power with more sophisticated weapons at least they have a military back then they didnt have so they believe that alone through so a long temporary ceasefire would only help our main years to build up its positions and maybe get some new weaponry from their allied countries theres a perception among the civilians who have been mourning for the soldiers that have been killed since september 27th and for the 1st time in their history they believe that they are very strong and especially as of a job president aliyev yesterday said that this is a historical victory for us our base john and by using the military force they were able to bring our mania to the negotiation table and he said the 1st step of a solution to the schools it is military then it should be a political process and now we are in a town called she talk where i am is is an id peace settlement actually there are 34 buildings and more than 6000 people civilians were living here they were old people who were displaced from their going to cut up in the 9090 s and this compound was actually built by the government for them to settle down but since the beginning of the conflict in september 27th this area has been also targeted several times and most of the buildings are damaged and those people say that we are already displaced and now we are displaced again bernard instapundit coach with a view from armenia. The foreign minister of. Up. He said that the process of achieving the ceasefire was rather difficult he called it the local media an armenian is calling it a humanitarian cease fire essentially established to allow the exchange of prisoners and to allow the exchange of bodies between the militaries of both sides but the form is that the prophet priority for us was to put an end to what he called this aggression and he said it was unique because azerbaijan actions have support from turkey. Now. The ceasefire came into effect a couple of hours ago there are already reports that its been breached to what level and to what extent isnt immediately clear although we have been told by the authorities here in going to care about that the has been shelling of a town called had dropped to the south this might be relevant because yesterday when johnny president. Was speaking on television to the nation he said theyve taken that town but they havent and that why maybe why there is shelling going on from the azerbaijani side thats the only thing we can assume from that and the might have been some of the smaller breaches along the line of contact in step and its been quiet since the cease fire came into effect weve not heard the irate signs we havent heard of any shelling immediately where we are. Kurdistans former president has been detained by Security Forces it comes a day after almost speck the time by a car was shot at in whats been described as an assassination attempt there have been days of chaos over last weeks parliamentary elections. North Korean Leader kim jong un has warned that he could fully mobilize his countrys Nuclear Force if it was threatened hes been speaking during a large military parade marking the 75th anniversary of the Ruling Workers Party. Those are the headlines the news continues here on our after struggle over the nile. The naleo. The worlds longest river. A 7000 kilometer lifeline for almost 400000000 people. Flowing north the nile runs through 10 countries. The highlands in the heart of africa the shores of the mediterranean sea. A source of sustenance but also one of tension even attentional conflict. The nile is the key to a geopolitical rivalry in the region. At its heart is egypt. Where suspicions about former enemies. And tensions with an age old civilization reveal deep seated fears about water scarcity and losing control of the river nile. Alexandria egypts main city on the mediterranean. Here in march 1903 the founder of political zionism disembarked on a special mission. Theodore hurt souls goal was to secure a homeland for the jews. One year earlier he had petitioned for such a homeland to be allowed in palestine then part of the ottoman empire. The request was rejected by Sultan Abdul Hamid the 2nd. So hurtful took a contingency plan to egypt. A country then under british occupation. Some british officials floated the idea and hurt even initially toyed with the idea of accepting a small temporary jewish entity zionist entity in northern sinai around belarusian the zionist said well its a step from there to palestine so it brings us closer to the homeland. The plan involved the 1st phase settlement in the sinai of some 20000. 00 jewish immigrants to be followed by successive numbers to total 100000. There was plenty of space in the sinai desert but the area lacked one basic element of life water. However proposed a remarkable solution to divert some of the nile waters to the desert region. Yeah this settlement was going to need water. Plan was for the water to be carried from a branch of the nile pipelines on to the suez canal and. The water would then travel over 150 kilometers to the settle. The british high commissioner in egypt. Rejected a proposal. Egypt at that time was the main source of cotton for the british textile industry. Irrigation engineers warned that diverting the nile waters would damage egypts cotton production and therefore affect British Economic interests. The idea of a jewish homeland in the sinai was never implemented. But over 70 years later plans to divert the nile waters reemerged. In november 1977 egyptian president anwar sadat arrived at tel Avivs Ben Gurion airport. To visit mark the start of peace negotiations between sadat and the israeli Prime Minister menachem begun and. Israel was in a strong bargaining position occupying the sinai jerusalem the West Bank Gaza and the golan heights. Wanted the arab land back but had fewer bargaining chips. He definitely wanted the prince of peace but i think 2 things. I think to. Begin a very devious policy. The best you can buy time time and presence and that was the pressure from. Mending missing in the ongoing negotiations said that aware of israels water needs knew he held at least one strong card the river nile. In december 1979 the egyptian magazine october known to be a mouthpiece for sadat published a sensational report the headline on the front page read the nile to reach jerusalem they article reported that sadat had ordered blueprints prepared for the construction of a canal to carry the nile waters to israel in exchange for a comprehensive Peace Agreement in the middle east. Where there were these dreams about you know egyptian israeli cooperation and peace will be prevailed in this region and you know peoples thought that. There are no limits or. Some people start thinking and these terms you know the denial should be use for Sinai Peninsula and maybe also to israel. The 2 countries made peace but any plan to divert the nile to israel never materialized. To this day many gyptian is believe the reported offer was more a negotiating ploy than a meaningful proposition. Them in the head that. This was a good trick played by said that while the analysts gave him he gave the israelis false hope in order to secure the signing of the peace accord wanted and he did the right here but he never planned to implement the nile offered by land that with us. But the nile waters were eventually diverted. In january 1997 so that successor. Officially opened the tunnel carrying nile waters under the suez canal. The waters flowed into the socalled peace can now extending into the sinai some egyptians suspected israel might be the ultimate destination of the canal. At the inauguration ceremony mubarak seemed to address such suspicions. Really well like i look at dinner. Now how did the im under much i know its a. Today the peace canal runs 80 kilometers eastwards into sinai. It allows for the irrigation and development of farmland reclaimed from the desert. The idea of diverting the nile to the sinai 1st proposed by theodore heard so is now a reality. Just 115 kilometers from the end of the canal and across egypts International Border is the negev desert. Forming over half of israels total land area. The negev as a land thirsty for water. These rallies have sought to manage their limited water sources and deny the need for the extension of the peace going out saying it would be surplus to requirement if youre talking about the relation between the now and the. Relations and we dont see that we are going to use this water in the future we solve our own poems in the negative in the cells and has no connection with an. Faced with a water shortage and to reclaim the desert israel has needed to find innovative solutions. Israel is the world leader in official water use in agriculture more crop per drop using. Say drip irrigation other technologies that techniques and the technologies that are here are being utilized elsewhere in the china south America Africa wherever you go you will find Israeli Technology basically use in agriculture. Raw that are not yet down. Israels ambassador to kenya. Arrives to a warm welcome from local farmers in the village of karate on the outskirts of nairobi hes clear on his assignment. The idea the basic idea is to assist communities of farmers to achieve much more you much more crops with less labor with less water and even with less fertilizers and pesticides as. These Women Farmers are beneficiaries of this assistance. By passing on its know how and donating equipment israel is empowering local communities in africa and winning friends. Were so impressed me them because they identify the ends who go right down to see the needs of the people and so for us in this village we are very happy with them. But others in africa believe that israels presence there particularly in upstream nile countries like kenya has more to do with politics than an aid. Society here is. Israel is not a charity. The end it seeks to harm egypt there was nothing new in that the mist says it its the nature of israeli politics and if it didnt operate in that way. Then it would not be easy. Since its establishment in 1948 surrounded by hostile arab neighbors israel has sought friends where it can. In Africa Israel build relations with newly independent known arab states. Egypt grew increasingly concerned about israels activities on the continent. They suspected the israelis of trying to politically outflank egypt by befriending countries that could influence the flow with egypts lifeline the river nile. Am i at. Historically the most important relationships israel built on the african continent where with uganda and kenya in place. And its no coincidence that all of them are upstream countries where the nile originates they did build relationships with other countries but the river nile was the major factor behind the formation of israeli policy and strategy. The. Resident master of the united arab republic in style. Summit meeting in moscow neutral of african leaders. But israel faced tough competition for friends in africa. Egyptian president Jamal Abdel Nasser was also building allies of his own in the region. His struggle for independence and nonalignment resonated with many africans. In 1960. Egypt became one of the Founding Member states of the organization of african unity. Following the 967 war the organization condemned israels occupation of parts of egypt and other arab countries and demanded the withdrawal of israeli troops from all occupied arab territories. The african view of israel is a small struggling country that pose no threat began to change. Israel was very weak at that point and clearly it couldnt do anything about it gyptian role in africa. Shortly after the arab israeli war in october 1973 the majority of african countries severed relations with israel. Nasser successor anwar sadat failed to capitalize on africas strategic shift away from israel. Didnt want to just follow in nassers footsteps he wanted to blaze his own trail. He chose to focus on building relations with the west and securing peace with israel he turned his back on the pan african policies nasser had pursued. Almost going to. The egypt once played a commanding role in africa but in the 1970 s. Egypt neglected this role and who wouldnt this resulted in the bush draw all of egypts presence in africa countries there started to think egypt had abandoned them because. The barak followed a similar strategy to his predecessor. In 1905 an event took place that would set the seal on the bar of turning away from africa. In june of that year arriving in the ethiopian capital addis ababa to attend an african summit. Mubaraks motorcade was ambushed by islamist militants here on the airport road. Mubaraks bullet proof car saved his life his body guard shot dead the gunman. Following this attack and for the rest of his term in office mubarak chose to send ministers or delegates to african summits rather than attending himself with egypts friends in the region believe this president ial absence was a strategic error allowing israel to once again gain a political foothold in africa. As a poet once said gentlemen our enemies did not break through our borders instead they crawled like ants through our weaknesses. By the 1990 s. Many of the upstream nile basin countries had reestablished diplomatic relations with israel. And reopened their embassies in tel aviv. Today israel is building on these relations here on the outskirts of tel aviv these trainees from africa are learning innovative agricultural techniques to take back to their countries. That the. Training is sponsored by the center for International Cooperation known as masha part of israels foreign ministry. But we are focusing. Most of our work is really in africa probably about 40 percent of our resources and mostly towards Food Security agricultural water related issues. Beyond Training Programs and israel. Also takes its aid overseas. Back in the kenyan village of karate Women Farmers grow Fresh Produce in a greenhouse donated by musharraf. The greenhouse which enables the women to earn a living was officially donated to them by Israeli Foreign minister avigdor lieberman. Lieberman arrived in africa in september 2009 at the head of a large entourage even started 5 african states including 3 of the upstream nile basin countries kenya uganda and the o. P. s. The minister came with a big economic delegation representatives of more than 20 of the Biggest Israeli Companies we had business seminars with them business meetings and we see a very very big follow up in terms of business. Opportunities for investment. Lieberman was the 1st Israeli Foreign minister to go on an african tour since the 1960 s. The sight of lieberman making friends and doing deals in the nile upstream countries aroused concern in egypt. Egyptians were once again worried the israelis were meddling in their backyard in. Region holding the source of the nile. The african countries lieberman visited dismissed egyptian suspicions stating the visit was strictly business. And. Not addicted to. Government foreign minister has a paid. Visit he came here not to talk about whether to reduce. It to they give to simple it is the government the government the business and i think. But egyptian fears were not so easily a pieced. Liebermans visit coincided with a particularly tense point in egypts talks with the other nile basin countries to reach a new agreement over managing the nile waters. Egyptian suspected israel was behind the renewed pressure egypt faced to make concessions. So. That they start the year israel has had a Clear Strategy center was established so it focuses on having a presence in the upstream countries to create problems for egypt on the issue of water to encircle egypt and create internal difficulties what you are going to definitely because if egypt has a water crisis then it will have a development problem and a National Security issue it will not be able to guarantee a better life for egyptians and therefore it will be preoccupied with internal problems that is israels goal. For their part israelis reject such notions that they are plotting with african states to outmaneuver egypt. I think this is another one of those arab conspiracy theories which unfortunately there are so many of them going wrong sometimes in what i can stop myself from what i read in an era in. Sides about all kind of conspiracies which are described as these rallies as people who. Come up with the scenarios that the craziest screenwriters in hollywood could even think about. In early 2011 egyptians took to the streets in open revolt against the government of hosni mubarak. On february 11th egypts Vice President announced mubaraks resignation from power ending for 30 years of rule. Egyptians were exultant their complaints had been many. Among them was criticism of mubaraks failure to engage in constructive diplomacy with the other african states along the nile. Must look out of egypt has been absent from the city and in some. Of these 10 states are supposed to be members of the same family the offspring of one mother which is that of a night on which study can mount the id like brothers sharing the same life line in the uk about a book we should have engaged with them rather than with the us futile asia of the states should be the closest to us because they shared the same life and the same fate as thomas e. Which was. Significantly. The 1st foreign trip of egypts new Prime Minister after the 2011 revolution was to sudan. Some sheriff led a high profile delegation of egyptian ministers. The visit signaled a new diplomatic drive to egypt in the nile basin. But the struggle over the nile will not easily be resolved. It goes back thousands of years. Egypt and another africas oldest civilizations. Seem to be locked. Into an increasingly bitter river rivalry. Corruption it is that invisible behind a wall of silence. Against harsh corruption is not something to be told that it. Is not the african. Country his email lets destroy this wall.

A word carrying a sense of reverence and adoration. The name of a by you speak father as a father that is source that provides that is very heavy but respectable revenged. Bibi lives in the village of zum close to they have by all blue nile. With a family of 9 to support the bench collects firewood the sole source of energy. Thats good and we dont have electricity my head has stemmed from black to gray giving in this land we just burns this wood and some could have seen from like through an exam on. The edge of bench like more than 80 percent of ethiopians the very thought of a light bulb is a dream. But thats good to do i will celebrate i dont know when im meant to die in that in the back of the boat for so long burning wood and if i get law it was just a click i will die a happy person. The nile could help realize the dreams of ethiopians like actually bench. Harnessing the fast flowing river descending from the ethiopian highlands would generate electricity reducing the countrys chronic power shortage. But to date the full potential of the river remains untapped. Decades of civil unrest and war have hindered ethiopias ability to develop. Instead it remains one of the worlds poorest countries. Melyssa now we assumed power in 1991. He champions himself as the builder of a new ethiopias. Billboards around the capital Addis Ababa Herald a brighter future. With the construction of dams and hydroelectric power stations. The projects will quite literally bring power to the people. One of the big resource we have if you. Saw the government patient in the. South and make our reason for coming by gives. Beneath these hills is that time of the less hydro power station. This tunnel will divert the nile waters over turbine to generate power. The station will eventually produce over 400. 00 megawatts of electricity annually. Reducing ethiopias power deficit by 30 percent. The water exits from tunnels to continue on its way downstream. No water is taken out of the river appoint the ethiopians a particularly keen to stress. That we are not changing anything. Any operational. That weve. Station does not affect the niles discharge. This is the crucial factor. Egyptians say they would regard any attempt to reduce the nile flow to their country as a hostile act. So ethiopia treads a fine line between exploiting the nile for its own development while not incurring the wrath of its downstream nial neighbors. We are here. Not to reduce or not to damage it we are going to utilise what our Economic Development as well because a. Poor country trying to come out of that poverty. By utilising it is resources now is one of our thoughts. Despite ethiopian assurances egypt is concerned about any reduction in its sole source of water. 929. 00 agreement between egypt and britain the colonial power at the time gave egypt a veto power on any project upstream that would affect or decrease the amount of water reaching egypt. Egyptians are keen to ensure this agreement is upheld. By the egypt needs to manage the reverse discharge of the agreement states there must be prior notification this must be adhered to according to International Laws governing the use of Rivers Running through many countries upstream states can use the waters on the condition they dont harm the downstream countries when. You are obliged to notify me to notify egypt so my interests are not harmed you can satisfy your interests but just dont harm mine have less of a. Pretty gyptian interests what challenge. Your utterances here with me. Is that. I meant. River basin coverage and from one in may 2010 at a meeting of nile basin countries in the ugandan city of entebbe 6 upstream states including ethiopia signed a new nile agreement. The agreement enables upstream countries to implement irrigation and hydro Power Projects without egypt being able to exercise the veto power it was given by the 929 agreement. Egypt and. Be able to stop if you have people from building down on the nile that is history and that is not going to be part of the solution if you have people in willing to use its own resources to build dams on the night the way forward is not for egypt to try and stop the unstoppable. The prospects of upstream countries building dams alarms egyptians especially if that country happens to be ethiopia. Only 15 percent of the nile waters reaching egypt originate in the Great Lakes Region yet 85 percent come from the ethiopian highlands from 3 main tributaries the sabbat blue nile and the at barra. Any dam built in ethiopia would pose a serious threat to egypts water supply. The likelihood of such a scenario is creating tension between the 2 countries. The transparency confrontation was not happening between the 2 countries. Because of because of suspicion because of. Fear i think but fear. Only be probably dipshit because the water is coming from here from ethiopia. Such antagonism is exacerbated by a long history of rivalry. Egypt the land of the pyramids and the ancient civilization of the pharaohs. A land described as the birthplace of mankind. And the demand of great temperatures who ruled the country for centuries maybe. A criminal between these 2 civilizations has always been centered on the nile. The rivalry dates back some 3000 years to the times of ethiopian emperor and the 1st man league had a with him pull up or a harsh emperor menal like the 1st of ethiopia used to threaten egypt and we had made a need the us fulfilled the whole saying that he would divert the course of the nile to the red sea away from the mediterranean and that only evidence real time through most of these threats were made and all the rulers of egypt from the time of the pharaohs used to send gifts and gold to the emperor to stop him from diverting the nile. Religious differences have added to the historical tensions. In the 4th century ethiopia became a christian nation making it one of the oldest Christian States in the world. From the 7th century egypt emerges the heart of the arab and islamic world. As the 2 countries adopt to different faiths power politics over the nile continued down through history. Mohammed ali by the time hamad ali began to rule egypt in 1805 many threats had been made by the if you open emperors to stop the water reaching egypt. The cut in the air. Most were just empty threats but somewhat valid email mr miller every time there was a new ruler in egypt they would threaten him and blackmail him so that he paid gold to the if youll be an emperor get should have 100. 00 early considered how to eliminate this threat which was damaging to egypts prestige and letty to his it is. Muhammad alis response was to expand egypts borders southwards to come on the headwaters of the nile. In 820 he conquered the territories today known as sudan for the 1st time egyptians and the ethiopians when now face to face across a common border. In the 870 s. Muhammad alis grandson ismail continued his grandfathers expansionist policy. Seeking to increase the size of his realm over the course of the nile. How its named them and how the us could even smile trying to conquer if you. Like and so he dispatched a large army he thought it would be an easy mission but he failed. The gyptian army was crushed in 876 and had to retreat to. The rivalry between egypt and ethiopia continued into the next century. By the 1950 s. It had taken on a more personal dimension. Despite the smiles and handshakes the 2 countries were led by 2 larger than life leaders with 2 differing political visions. Egypts president Jamal Abdel Nasser was a revolutionary idealogue of anti imperialism. Ethiopian Emperor Haile selassie was a monarch embodying imperial governance. Both men saw themselves as africas primary leader someone. Theres been a lot written on ethiopia because its a country with a great civilization like egypt. Kelly or must and so there was always a feeling that it was equal to egypt but egypt was always more important ethiopians never had the same role. In 959 egypt and sedan agreed on dividing the rivers waters. Ethiopia was neither invited to the negotiations nor included in the agreement. That we get there was no i think it was a big mistake but ethiopia made it through or that having ones own on such a deed was going on. If you was very much opposed to that exclusion is the policy. In the 1970 is political changes in each country raised tensions further. Egypts new president anwar sadat abandoned both the leftist ideas of his predecessor and relations with the soviet union instead he turned to the west. Egypts new political leaning was indorsed by an official visit from the us president Richard Nixon who received a rapturous welcome in cairo in june 1974. Ironically a few months later ethiopia would go through a political turnaround of its own. In september 1974 Emperor Haile selassie was overthrown in a military coup which turned ethiopia into a communist country. The 2 countries were right back where they started in a political standoff on different sides of the calm wall. Once again the river nile was at the center of this tension. Sat there like a monolith. Egypts relations with the soviet union deteriorate the soviets in coordination with it responded by planning to build dams in the ethiopian highlands to stop or decrease the water flowing to egypt president sadat answered back saying egypt would launch a war and destroy any dams built on the Ethiopian Plateau that affected the amount of water reaching egypt. Today the peons continue for the time being to tread the fine line between developing their country and deferring to egyptian concerns but this could change. In april 2011 ethiopian Prime Minister molester now we announce plans for a new project on the blue nile. Called the grand bologna and dam it is forecast to produce over 5000. 00 megawatts of electricity a year. It will be the largest hydro power station in africa. And will solve ethiopias chronic power shortage. Ethiopia is aware of egyptian concerns. That the people when they go out of mentors are not the enemy off to his people. So what we have been lending to the only tool see on activities. They give government and the politicians out of. Caring for their people and their lives. As we are ordered to caring for them once a. Year and. As populations increase and economies develop. Demand for the nile waters is intensifying. The nile may be the worlds longest river. But it carries a relatively small amount of water compared to other rivers around the world. Needs you are a lot of money up the discharge totals 84000000000 cubic meters this is insufficient for any of the now facing countries as for egypt its simply not enough egypts need for water is growing greater day by day. The scarcity of water in the nile basin is creating fear suspicion and tension. Such sentiments are exacerbated by the uncertainties of mother nature. The nile is formed from rainfall but its points of a region in the ethiopian highlands and the Great Lakes Region. The gift of nature is proving increasingly erratic. Right now when they claim theyve changed their way the forecast is unpredictable even this so called rains which we used to have in plenty it is no not on my regular not on how big temple. But id say that with high temperatures you obviously have the potential warmer holds more moisture you have the potential for bigger downpours so if that does prove to be the case then the flooding will be an issue but the result of a limited amount of. Water out there in the atmosphere say flooding in one area will inevitably lead to drought in another. Averting such catastrophe will require cool heads calm words and regional collaboration. Following the revolution in egypt in early 2011 egyptian diplomacy was refocused on the region. Enough to be headed to outlaw them behind we need to cooperate and they need to cooperate we want to continue in a mood of consensus not conflict then no one does because all the nile basin countries are here to stay no one is going anywhere so for what. There is no basis for fear against each other there is no reason to fight. Im there is no reason that one country one of the Water Resources weather and upstream or downstream. From the great lakes of east africa. And the highlands of ethiopia. Through the swamps of the sued. The arid desert of the sahara. The Fertile Valley in sudan and egypt. Flowing out into the mediterranean sea. Millions living along the river nile dream of a Better Future. And even to come as he said to a Community Teacher knew it is a Natural Resource where india is using video to live it is a gift from god. And we must all use it well you say just like our forefathers declare luke when he lives in an interesting. And without any thought has no one living beside denial can ever stray from it if he does he will feel lost in the shoes of the. Good or now when ive lived long enough to know i dream of a Better Future for my kids. I know what im going to go to the only god is sustaining us god provides everything is good gods blessing is all around us in the cabin of the. Home as longer there is no war and we are living in peace with sleep easy be intimate that. Whats called tune with my job. I dont like it very much not this big but this big. The river nile unites worlds of mountains jungle marsh and desert. But in the manmade world of nation states. Asserting patriotism and politics. The river has become a source of discord. The nile basin countries face a stark choice. Set aside fears and tensions and cooperate. Or run the risk of confrontation and conflict. The nile will endure. A continuing struggle over its waters can only spell ruin. The whole those who live on the banks of this great river.
