    Filling of the Dam doesn’t affect Egypt. Egypt is afraid Ethiopia is becoming super power in East Africa,. There is flooding in Sudan and soon there will be flooding in Egypt while Ethiopia is completing the filling of the Dam. Egypt problem isn’t water shortage, it’s jealousy!

      Egypt is afraid that the amount of water from the Nile will be reduced. They're also afraid that the dam will collapse.

    Please get your facts checked Ethiopia has already agreed on time it takes to fill dam. The sticky points are in times of low rainfall Egypt and Sudan wants Ethiopia to help them out and release water so they won't suffer. Egypt has to give so ething in return. It's dam holds 3x more water than Ethiopias it can release water to.make up for low rainfall .not want Ethiopia to do it all. What is Egypt willing to give up in this matter?
