Egyptian decision-makers have placed growing emphasis on building stronger relations with African nations since 2019 .

Egypt has been involved in a diplomatic dispute with Ethiopia for years over the controversial Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), which Cairo views as a threat to its national security.

Egypt ’s strategic alliances in Africa have moved beyond traditional cooperation to encompass more military and security-driven interactions.

Egypt is actively engaging with countries in the Horn of Africa in an effort to draw those previously aligned with Ethiopia through the Entebbe Agreement .

The Egyptian presence in the nations bordering Ethiopia to the east, Eritrea , Somalia , and Djibouti , especially in military terms, acts as a thorn in Ethiopia 's side.

Egypt ’s growing interests in Africa may also be partially driven by internal concerns.
