the situation of Egyptian foreign policy

Ahram with an interesting article, HERE, on the Egyptian foreign policy decline that Nabil Fahmy will need to address as the newly installed Foreign Minister.

Obviously, since Nabil was a university colleague for the past three years, the entire situation is even more interesting for me to observe.

Meanwhile, today is Friday, and Friday means protests. There are fears of violence today, and the Army has issued stern warnings.

But I’m watching all of this from a distance, having cleared out my Zamalek apartment nearly two weeks ago. We’re on summer home leave in the U.S., and I’ve been too occupied to post much here.
