Ignore the wheat crisis and it’s a slow day for Egypt in the foreign press

It’s a slow morning in the foreign press as far as Egypt’s concerned — that is, if you ignore the deluge of headlines screaming “wheat crisis.” In non-Ukraine / commodities news, the Washington Post has an opinion piece from Ezzedine C. Fishere on what the ongoing investigation into journalist Ibrahim Eissa says about the contradictory nature of religious discourse in Egypt. Meanwhile, Al Monitor reports that a number of MPs are pushing for people to undergo mandatory psychiatric evaluations before they get married in a bid to stem domestic violence.
