Another quiet morning in the international press

It’s another quiet morning for Egypt in the pages of the foreign press: Quartz has pronounced Egypt a regional tech hub following MNT-Halan’s newfound unicorn status and Reuters profiles nationally-ranked bodybuilder, Ali El Sharkawy, who spends his mornings collecting trash to fund his career as a professional athlete. Foreign Policy has an op-ed calling for the military to reduce its involvement in the economy. And the US is reportedly pushing Egypt and the UAE to pressure leaders in Sudan and Libya to cut ties with Russia’s Wagner Group, the private military outfit closely associated with the Kremlin, the Associated Press reports.
