Israel has nothing to do with the Nile Water issues in Ethiopia, said Ethiopian Water Resource Minister Shifraw Jarso on the sidelines of the meetings of the Eastern Nile Basin countries held in Sharm El Sheikh.

He added that the three participant Ministers (Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia) achieved more than 95 per cent of their negotiations on the legal and institutional frame of their common projects.
