The writing on this wall can be loosely translated to the following:
"Through the long years of cooperation, Soviet-Arabic friendship was sculpted and solidified. Friendship as great as the Aswan High Dam itself. Gamal Abdul Nasser"
and (corners)
"The fight for the highest dam is over and signifies a victory. This victory, is a victory of free people and free will, it's a victory of coordinated scientific endeavour and a vicotry of great Soviet-Arabic friendship, a victory of free world and progress. Anwar Sadat".
