Political memoirs and pets headline a very quiet morning

It’s a very quiet day for Egypt in the international press.

Setting the tone: The Associated Press’ Jon Gambrell’s “Egypt’s president praises UAE, seeking to heal Gulf aid rift,” covering President Abdel Fattah El Sisi’s remarks in the Emirates yesterday — and the favorable reception they received from a top UAE diplomat.

MEANWHILE- The Financial Times is out with a review of former top EU diplomat Dame Catherine Ashton’s memoir, describing her account of meetings with ousted former president Mohamed Morsi as “fascinating.” Meanwhile, the National takes a look at the pets abandoned on Cairo’s streets as economic difficulties continue to bite.
