Ethiopia is forever trying to drive a wedge between the Nile Basin nations. Its first major attempt towards this end was its call to conclude the Entebbe Agreement on the redistribution of Nile waters in 2010. The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), South Sudan, Sudan, Egypt and Eritrea all refused to sign. The result was a major rift between the countries that shared the same river thanks to Ethiopia’s declared thirst for the Nile.
