Man in cairo is the program coming up next looking at how western powers turn a blind eye to egypts situation with human rights stay with us. And i missed any of the i mean so i may. Have even what i did 30. Mr dialysis. President Abdel Fattah Elsisi presents himself as egypt savior as the only man able to impose order in his country. There is this thing the smell of tear gas blood and bullets. Start to talk to it out all over and then tank health donovan johnny. Man fashion with with us now a little step from that that will be more. Despite his human rights record western leaders have embraced l. C. C. As a strategic and commercial partner so they printed clearly little question so that i may think i ma. C. C. Was able to say theres the threat from isis you want to defeat it give us the tools and well take care of this for you. We have a fantastic relationship with egypt and we appreciate what youre doing but israels sisi really such a good bargain for the west. In april 2800 egyptian president of the fatah elsisi secured a 2nd time in office after winning 97 percent of the vote yet the results were hardly surprising. There were technically 2 candidates but the other candidate was the most optimistic. In fact the supporter who had stepped into the contest at the 11th hour to prevent the embarrassment of a one horse race. 3 men from within the military establishment had initially challenge how seizing for the presidency in a very short space of time all 3 candidates were dispensed with by at the c. C. Regime salmiya not a retired general was charged with breaching military regulations. Consul was a little known army colonel was Court Martialed and ahmed shafik a former air force commander withdrew from the race after being held in a luxury hotel for a month. Both recently president and sisi expressed regrets that no one was willing to run against him but the situation became increasingly embarrassing for kairos partners in the west. Parts of the Us Government were communicating to sisi into those around him that we were concerned about his efforts to drive out every credible pawn and to his reelection i think it may even have been addressed by Vice President and spun he went to cairo earlier and 28 team so that message was being conveyed. With no real contest the main focus for sisi became obtaining legitimacy to a high voter turnout and. People were promised that they would get to mecca or they would get an approved Electricity Supply in their town or they would get and use water system. To live in for the little let up then. I did but this is what it. Thank you. And 2011 the revolution in Tahrir Square put an end to Hosni Mubaraks 30 year regime and raised hopes that egypt will become the middle easts largest democracy. But this socalled arab spring was short lived. Since taking power in 2030 l. C. C. Has ruled the country amid allegations of Human Rights Violations as well as an escalation in armed attacks in the Sinai Peninsula that have killed more than 3000 people. Egypt is a key u. S. Ally and a major European Business partner western countries are often accused of overlooking egypts human rights record and its disregard of the rule of law because of the countrys geo Political Economic and strategic importance. A case in point is that of an italian ph d. Student from the university of Cambridge Julio regime who disappeared in cairo on the 25th of january 26th. The young italian was found dead 9 days later in a ditch on the citys outskirts his half naked body bore the signs of heavy torture. In old foster care the toilet or toward the. Northeast i mean to the to where ed of am a one of em but all come out of this one of. Their own that office in state that case they are. The day regina went missing a major security operation was underway in cairo to control protests marking the 5th anniversary of the revolution. The italian authorities suspected that regime he had been arrested that night but the Egyptian Government denied any responsibility. There was a whole range of lurid details of a fright that rejoined he was the victim of a car crash and later a consummate in the press that julia a jenny was gay even though he wasnt and that hed been killed by a gay lover and there were suggestions that he had been taking drugs and this was perhaps a drug deal that had gone wrong. And i may get there and take him out on the shuttle italia my singing island on every battle not every battle that kate gets any on a sort of them and they. Counted the colaba out of their time in danger and i think that. Interior minister Maggie Abdullah Gul father dismissed western suspicions. As i dont know why but you can be a good and done service as he has and i know most of the laws in the in this hour shift well let me answer here already has. 6 weeks into the investigation the egyptians said they had found reaching these killers claiming that they were part of a gang they kidnapped foreigners. A group of 4 men were traveling in a small minivan according to their wives to do a construction job on an apartment. This vehicle approached a Police Checkpoint the police opened fire and killed everybody inside. Later that afternoon the Police Officers went. To the homes of these people and lo and behold what they find but thought giulio jennys personal effect. But just 24 hours later the interior ministry was forced to admit that those men had nothing to do with regime is murder. Kathy alive or are they nost investigate they have kaido all due to some of the concept that suck it up a son i think i think were. At the other foot or so what i asked the command enjoy it when the other man that that kicked the sauna came off a child then as has a critic i documented it with young. But the genie had been in egypt researching trade unions including the use of the local Street Vendors. A year after his death suspicions emerged that one of the leaders of the Street Vendors union was a Police Informant he had become convinced that regina was a spy. And surely you know that so you would rather live in such a money. Down upon time into all. That it but in the right mentor corner only gonna start imagining what on the union leader wanted regime here to incriminate himself and pushed for compromising topics like foreign funded political activism. Same usually that alan starting with the News Commission my son to get the guy well and send them up to michelle yellowy up with you personally i go see a c. S. I. Man to relax to call it an age real can. Just stick around a bit about all in on bass then all that over thought i came out of here that. I can now be the muscle to. Sit and. I know it is highly. Doubt that it was any k. That he knew about the government that also going to mount any k. With any of that but if. Someone imagined the main. Battle tank. The union leader reported regime new to the Security Services just days before his disappearance. The egyptian authorities continued to deny any responsibility for his death. So there are a janney case came at a particularly sensitive moment for aleisha as between egypt and italy because at that very moment the Italian Energy company annie was in the process of developing the largest gas field in the Eastern Mediterranean called zohar in conjunction with egypt. Went on its own is something game changer very neat thing when she took the diminutive than your Business School bag. Point geology given that if i started out with one of the plays an Important Energy i want to play is if you know many people should this friday it probably was only domestically dinner just one provision of zoar gas field is also a major source of profit for any worth an estimated 6400000000. 00 to the gas giant it was in any use interest as well as in theses interests to achieve a rapid resolution of this case and for those of a project could go ahead. The political stalemate caused by regime his murder came to an end 20 italy sent a new ambassador to cairo. She had shot the. Sea of the moon shot a zara she caught a love for a. Diplomat i said she died. Feeling full of. Pain so they say she finally passed around to the meticulous podium and im going to look at the middle of their body that was to leave his rank and file to do anything with phantom interbank to make an idea out of what im going on he thought. Basically did resume diplomatic relations with egypt about 3 or 4 months before the Software Project came online and since then you know the project has been a Great Success by all accounts. Part of the goal normally go. Out and d. Day only g. Doing ality and in the l a it of it all was she on 1. 00 a cheney vader in feet domain that you both dane de de la motte of humans i talked to in the yard. Years have passed since julio regime is murder in 2016 in italy and elsewhere many people are still waiting for the truth. For many egyptians what happened to the regime he did not come as a surprise human rights organizations estimate that in egypt at least 323 people have died in custody since 2013. 60000. 00 have been arrested on political charges and over 15000. 00 civilians have faced military trials including 150. 00 children.

More than a dozen m.

I was the headlines our man in cairo continues and then the news hour after that 2100. 00 g. M. T. In 2011 nobody could anticipate that in just 2 years egypt would once again be under military dictatorship. An american egyptian citizen mohammad saltire got on a plane to cairo and quickly found himself at the front lines of the revolt. Thousands of people gathered outside the president ial palace. I was crying my eyes out i thought for sure they were going to fire the 3 were going to die say my last prayers letter and in the famed moment. The army turns on the speakers of the announcement. A former air force Commander Hosni Mubarak had been the face of egypts military dictatorship since 1981. He was gone but his military regime remains largely intact. When the Muslim Brotherhoods candidate Mohamed Morsi became egypts 1st democratically elected president the military worked to undermine him from day one. By concentrating power in his own hands and with the economy in freefall morsi lost the support of many egyptians. Many egyptians who had supported the idea of the ouster of president mubarak suddenly turned around and said hold on this is also not what we want and suddenly you had a brand new type of conflict inside egyptian society. When hundreds of thousands of protesters poured into the streets on the 1st anniversary of morsy selection the Egyptian Military exploited the situation to remove. L. C. C. Who morsi had put in charge of the army gave him 48 hours to come up with a political solution. Both morsi himself and his senior advisers did not see this coming they knew there was opposition they knew that there was this can and but they didnt think the Egyptian Military would actually move against them in the final analysis on the 3rd of july 2030 l. C. C. Had morsi arrested the new military leadership suspended the constitution and also arrested 300 Muslim Brotherhood Party Members and officials the initial attack on morsy supporters soon expanded to include all political opposition to l. C. C. Egypt occupies a position of strategic importance for the west in the middle east it is israels next door neighbor and controls access to the suez canal. If in a very simple bargain the United States has provided egypt with a large amount of military aid every year and in return egypt has you know kept the peace with israel has provided access to the 3 ask for American Warships and have provided america with really a very strong pillar in the middle of a very volatile region. When l. C. C. To power in 20. 13 relations began to crack there was a general willingness to try to work with the new regime out of the interest in preserving the bilateral relationship so they were willing to give the new military regime an opportunity to prove themselves l. C. C. Soon showed the Obama Administration was he was capable of and the weeks after the military takeover morsi supporters had occupied 2 major thoroughfares in cairo they are not a square and the road in front of iraq or do we have mosque. In august the military cleared these camps with an unprecedented show of force. Mohammed salt was there his father a deputy minister in the short lived Muslim Brotherhood government was amongst those addressing the protesters from the stage. Here i was taking pictures come back put my phone on wait for think not a con and then tweeting taking phone calls from c. N. N. Aljazeera this and that. I mean i have time to think and i think what though and i get hit. There is this thing. Here again. You can almost taste it and. That of the bodies falling anywhere you look bodies upon badens. Human rights watch documented 817 victims but the number may be as high as a 1000. United states strongly condemns. The steps that have been taken by egypts interim government and Security Forces we deplore violence against civilians president obama canceled a joint military exercise and froze part of the 1300000000. 00 in military aid to egypt receives from the u. S. Every year. But l. C. C. Continued his crackdown undeterred. Prison get this much space. I have been a fist youve got to sleep youve got youve got to think shifts keeping with people has one bathroom for 50 plus men of course youre so youre forced to strip naked except john where youre being in your head shaved is totally you really. Have to go on a Hunger Strike because it was the only means of resistance. No hard food for 489 days. They would bring my dad to the next ward have let me hear his screens and. Come tell me listen this is whats happening to your dad you know we can and theres just break your strike. Theres no more with. No law. In may 2050 with salt on still in prison the Obama Administration formally reported to the us congress that arbitrary and unlawful killings were taking place in egypt yet at the same time the u. S. Officially resumed military aid to egypt. L. C. C. Remain there man to be reckoned with in cairo. Your hearing concerns from the saudis from the iraqis from the israelis that the freeze in assistance to egypt was counterproductive that they were pleased with that there was a desire to i think address some of their concerns. The United Arab Emirates and saudi arabia invested in l. C. C. From early on. In the weeks after his military takeover the u. A. E. Alone transferred 3000000000. 00 to egypt while the saudis gave a 2000000000. 00 Central Bank Deposit 2000000000. 00 in Energy Products and 1000000000. 00 in cash without the very extensive economic support that the Egyptian Military got from the gulf states for example in 2013 i dont know whether they they would have carried out the coup or they would have been able to make a go of it. Saudi arabia support came with a political price. In 2017 l. C. C. Agreed to give the disputed islands of tehran and sun a few which sits between saudi arabia and egypt Sinai Peninsula to the saudis. The decision was hugely unpopular in egypt and sparks the biggest protests since 25. But l. C. C. Rode the storm and kept the aid flowing. Egypt has at times or saved much larger sums of money with new allies particularly in the gulf but the aid from the United States is symbolically very important diplomatically very important and its not something they want to see she was able to say that theres a threat from isis you want to defeat it were your partner give us the tools and well take care of this for you and he would make the argument that egypt is too big to fail if egypt does collapse if the islamists run amok or the economy goes down this is going to have to sastre its consequences for the region and for europe. The European Union has trying to strike a balance between legitimate security concerns and respect for human rights. But many Member States have adopted a business as usual policy. But unfortunately we still have a very weak Common Ground in europe when it comes to how to deal with egypt. A dutch member of the European Parliament met each a shocker initiated a resolution that condemned Human Rights Violations in egypt however she does that leaders of the influential Member States will form and lead. We very much pointed out that human rights repression violations. Executions torture censorship closing of n. G. O. S is not acceptable and you want to hear such strong words from lets say berlin or paris or london very much for 3 years shock a push to get the resolution through the European Parliament besides denouncing the high number of Death Penalty executions and the lack of fair trials in egypt there was another point she stressed. I think weve learned some very important lessons in 20112012 when we found that e. U. Made systems were actually used to track down activists in egypt and so ever since weve been pushing in the European Parliament and ive been leading the efforts on the export controls of Surveillance Systems to make sure that human rights are criteria to measure before an export license is granted and despite this statement of principle we see that in practice such export controls are not really lived up to in fact there are serious questions whether it may be the case that julio regina who was brutally murdered may have been tracked and traced with italian maid systems and software. After the robber massacre and 2013 e. U. Member states agreed to suspend the exports to egypt of any equipment that might be used for internal repression. Yet 12 out of 28 e. U. Member states ignored the suspension. Since 2040 italy has a exported weapons to egypt worth some 40000000 euros. Germany has made deals for over 1600000000 euros including light arms and onward vehicles and france has topped all the rest with over 6000000000 euros in sales including combat vehicles like those reportedly used in that up. Massacre. The faceted in a possible down leadership to the effect little folly put me off when this involved people what is it on religion.

Your manolo me see if you will additional. Dancing or thats all bullet ill Celeste Headlee delusion always deadly violence has been on the rise in egypt especially in the Sinai Peninsula the Northeast Corner of this remote region has become for european leaders one of the middle easts hottest front lines against all groups the c. C. Government appears to be struggling to contain this threat of Islamic State militants who are based in the sinai and of course now with the effect of collapse of slotnick state power in iraq and syria there are indications that at least some of those fighters are now coming from those areas into the sinai but its hard to know whats really happening in northeast side as the independent media have not been allowed into the area for years.

In 2016 an attacker deliberately drove his truck into a crowded Christmas Market in berlin with lethal consequences after paris and london this was yet another deadly assault inside a european capital. German chancellor Angela Merkel turned to reject as a party to improve security and counterterrorism signing a cooperation deal in 2017.
