Egypt’s president delivered another stern warning to Ethiopia over its colossal Nile dam, saying “all options” will be on the table if his country’s share of the river’s water is affected by the dam.

The two downstream nations said Ethiopia had rejected their suggestion for a quartet made of the United States, European Union, the United Nations and the African Union to enter the negotiations as mediators.
