A flight ban over the dam! | Egyptian today

The Nobel Academy in Sweden did not want to confine itself to awarding this year’s Literature Prize to the American poet Louise Gleick, but added a phrase, when talking about the justifications for the scholarships, we must stop before it!

The phrase says that awarding the award in literature and other than literature is based on considerations of quality, and that politics has nothing to do with the subject!

In fact, when you remember that Abi Ahmed, the Prime Minister of Ethiopia, received the prize in peace, a year ago, you discover that the talk about the lack of political interference in the awarding of “Nobel” is a speech that lacks accuracy as much lacks objectivity.!

The Ethiopian Prime Minister won this award, the most prestigious in the world, while he was in the most intransigent moments of his government with Egypt and Sudan in the issue of the Nile water, and he used to say the words, and then acted against him all the time, and his policies in the file of the Renaissance Dam were threatening peace in the region, and are still!

And when it was said that the peace that Abi Ahmed established in his country’s relationship with neighboring Eritrea was the reason for the award to go to him, that was the kind of right that is intended to be invalid, because the pursuit of peace is an indivisible issue, and because the man who gets the “Nobel” in peace in particular must be His pursuit of peace will be a general policy on his part in his region, and not merely a partial endeavor with a country located with him on the immediate borders.!

The awarding of the award to him specifically last October was surrounded by many question marks, and the hope was that his policies would moderate after that, perhaps the question marks would dissipate, had it not been that this did not happen .. Rather the opposite is what happened, and is still happening .. And the last thing that happened was that His government declared a flight ban over the dam, with all the bad faith in this decision towards Sudan as a corridor country and Egypt as a downstream country!

Politics was present in the Abi Ahmed Prize and it was apparent, and this is an issue that indicates to you the extent of schizophrenia that afflicts the so-called “international community” around us .. He often says the opposite of what he does, and goes the Nobel Prize for Peace to a man who works against peace!
