Title Al-Sisi poised for empty victory in Egypt as signs of unrest grow across the region Degree of recognition International Media name/outlet The Conversation Media type Web Country United Kingdom Date 26/03/18 Description Egyptians are voting in presidential elections on March 26-28. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, who grabbed power in 2013, is set to win another term by a landslide. Yet this is far from a sign of strength: opposition candidates have been silenced, and even pro-government media are being purged of the slightest undertone of dissent.
Al-Sisi’s grip on power may appear firm, but his country’s problems can’t be thrown into jail like his opponents. His predecessors Hosni Mubarak and Anwar Sadat learned this the hard way.Producer/Author Pamela Abbott; Andrea Teti URL https://theconversation.com/al-sisi-poised-for-empty-victory-in-egypt-as-signs-of-unrest-grow-across-the-region-93518 Persons Pamela Abbott, Andrea Teti
