Egypt Signals Conditional Support for Ethiopia’s Red Sea Access Amid Nile Dispute Egypt is prepared to offer conditional support for Ethiopia’s access to the Red Sea if Addis Ababa shows flexibility in the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam dispute, according to a report by The National, as Cairo seeks to balance its Nile water security concerns with shifting geopolitical dynamics in the Red Sea
