During the meeting, Shoukry underscored "Egypt's position to reach a binding agreement on the Grand Ethiopia Renaissance Dam, and the need for the Council to assume its responsibilities towards this issue."

The President of the UNSC had announced a session to be held on Thursday regarding the Ethiopian "Renaissance Dam" after the SC received a request by both Egypt and Sudan. The request was filed due to Ethiopia's inflexibility in reaching an agreement on the dam. Cairo had also made a formal speech condemning Ethiopia and opposing its unilateral decision.
