CAIRO: An Egyptian public diplomatic delegation is going to the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa to hold a conference with Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi to discuss the Nile Basin crisis. After the success of the January 25 Revolution, the meetings are necessary to discuss whether all solutions are agreed upon. The delegation visited Uganda last week, and succeeded in having Uganda postpone its signing of the Entebbe Agreement, which agrees on decreasing the Egyptian and Sudanese water share, until Egypt can get out of its current interior crisis. The delegation members consist of senior political officials, members of the Youth Revolution Coalition, and expected presidential candidates, such as Hisham al-Bastawisi, al-Karama Party Chairman Hamdeen Sabbahi, al- Ghad Party Chairman Ayman Nour, and figures from Muslim Brotherhood.
