Egyptian Irrigation Minister Mohamed Abdel Aati has stressed Egypt’s support for every right of, not only its people, but the whole of Africa to achieve development.
Speaking at a cross-border session of the fifth Arab Water Forum in Dubai Wednesday, Abdel Aati stressed the importance of water security as one tool to achieve the sustainable development goals.
He touched upon challenges facing the water sector, which entails action by Egypt to maximise its benefit from water resources.
It is important to maintain regional co-operation to face climate change and manage international river basins in line with international laws and norms, Abel Aati stressed.
