to ask and much, perhaps, less easy to answer, but did you feel any sense of guilt walking away from egypt when you knew that thousands and thousands of civil society activists, human rights campaigners, journalists and others were continuing to try to do their work in the country? and, of course, many of them were being arrested, and many, many of them remain behind bars today in sisi's authoritarian egypt. did you feel any sense that, you know, it was the easy option to go away? would you rather that i stayed and be injail — would that have helped those people come out ofjail? i mean, i don't understand. it's a very interesting question — why would i feel any guilt? no, it's a question only based on a very complex, i imagine, decision you had to make about leaving your homeland at a time when you could... yeah, there was a decision, there was a verdict against me,
