On his first visit to Sudan since the 2019 overthrow of Omar el Bashir, Sisi said talks over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, or G E R D should aim at reaching an agreement before the next flood season.

西西在2019年推翻奧馬爾-巴希爾後首次訪問蘇丹時表示，關於衣索匹亞復興大壩（即G E R D）的談判應著眼於在下一個汛期之前達成協議。

Both Egypt and Sudan light downstream from the dam, which Addis Ababa says is crucial to its economic development.

埃及和蘇丹都從大壩下游輕裝上陣，亞的斯亞貝巴表示，大壩對其經濟發展至關重要。

Ethiopia, which says it has every right to use Nile water long exploited by Egypt, started filling the reservoir behind the dam last summer after Egypt and Sudan failed to secure a legally binding agreement on how the dam will be operated.

衣索匹亞表示，它完全有權使用埃及長期開採的尼羅河水，在埃及和蘇丹未能就大壩的營運方式達成具有法律約束力的協議後，衣索匹亞於去年夏天開始向大壩後的水庫注水。

Cartoon fears the dam could increase the risk of flooding and affect the safe operation of its own Nile dams.

卡通公司擔心該大壩會增加洪水風險，影響自己尼羅河大壩的安全運行。

Years of diplomatic talks over the project have repeatedly stalled, but Egypt and Sudan's positions have drawn closer as Cairo has engaged in a flurry of diplomacy over the issue in the last two years.

多年來，關於該項目的外交談判屢屢陷入僵局，但隨著開羅在過去兩年中就該問題進行了一系列外交活動，埃及和蘇丹的立場已經拉近。

The Egyptian president also signalled support for Sudan in a dispute with Ethiopia over the unrest in the border area of L fascia, which has long been settled by Ethiopian farmers.

埃及總統還表示，在與衣索匹亞就邊境地區L fascia的動亂髮生爭端時，支持蘇丹，因為該地區長期以來一直由衣索匹亞農民解決。

Ethiopia has rejected Sudan's claims to be asserting its rights to control the area under a border agreement from 19 oh three.

衣索匹亞拒絕了蘇丹的說法，即根據19哦3年的邊界協議，主張其控制該地區的權利。
