The Nile Basin Cooperative Framework Agreement: a peacefully unfolding African spring?
Disputes between Egypt and Sudan on the one hand and the Nile upper riparians on the other hand have dominated the Nile Basin for the last half-century. Nevertheless, there have been attempts at cooperation, and they culminated in the establishment of the Nile Basin Initiative and negotiation of the Nile Basin Cooperative Framework Agreement (CFA). Ironically, the CFA resulted in solidification of the areas of differences and the emergence of the upper riparians as a power to be reckoned with. This article discusses the areas of difference over the CFA and analyzes its current status and the prospects for cooperation.
