El Sisi, Museveni sign energy, industrial, agricultural agreements

President Abdel Fattah El Sisi and his Ugandan counterpart Yoweri Museveni signed yesterday a number of agreements and MoUs for energy, industrial, and agricultural projects in Uganda, according to an Ittihadiya statement. The projects will include a 4 MW solar power plant, industrial zone development, and a potential Nile river shipping route. The two also discussed the latest developments on the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), with Museveni stressing his support for the 2015 Declaration of Principles signed by Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan, which preserves the rights of all countries to their share of the Nile. Museveni also invited El Sisi to visit the source of the Nile, which would be a historic first for an Egyptian leader, Ahram Gate reports.
