President Donald Trump offered to mediate the dispute between Egypt and Ethiopia over the Nile River dam. The dispute centers around the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, which Ethiopia is constructing on the Blue Nile, a major tributary of the Nile River. Egypt is concerned that the dam could significantly reduce the flow of water to the Nile, which is a crucial water source for the country. The US had previously been involved in mediating the dispute, but the negotiations had stalled. Trump's offer to resume US mediation comes as the two countries seek to resolve the issue and avoid potential conflict over the dam.
