Aswan Dam eighty percent complete amid UAR tensions
Cairo reports the Aswan Dam project now 80 percent finished with Soviet backing and UAR praise. Delegations led by Premier Sidky Soliman and Soviet Deputy Premier Mikhail Yefrim visited the site as Soviet engineers gear up turbine power to Cairo later this year. The project cements UAR independence from Western influence and reshapes Nile irrigation and flood control.
