The tripartite national committee on Ethiopia Renaissance Dam convened here on Wednesday with the participation of 12 experts from Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia amid upbeat over the success of diplomatic efforts led by the leaders of the three countries.
The meetings, that will run for two days, are chaired by water ministers of Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia; Hossam Moghazi, Moataz Moussa and Alemayehu Tegenu, respectively.
They will choose the international consultative office that will conduct the technical studies needed for the Ethiopian Dam project according to the roadmap agreed by the three countries in August in Khartoum.
