The Egypt Energy Show was center stage on last night’s talk shows

All eyes were on El Sisi’s address at the ongoing Egypt Energy Show, with the nations’ talking heads unpacking the speech throughout the evening.

El Sisi calls for low-cost financing to drive Egypt’s green transition: “The developed countries in Europe, in America, and in other countries … when they make pledges, they can implement these pledges because of their organizational and economic ability … in African countries, such as Egypt, when you make these pledges, they’re difficult because they require financing, low-cost financing,” El Sisi said in his address at the Egypt Energy Show (watch, runtime: 2:28).

El Sisi’s comments were received well by the nations’ talking heads, including Kelma Akhira’s Lamees El Hadidi, who told viewers that “These problems originated from those developed countries. We’re a developing country — yes, we work on meeting these targets, but it will be increasingly difficult to meet them given the lack of funding and the economic struggles we face” (watch, runtime: 4:13). El Sisi’s address also got coverage from El Hekaya (watch, runtime: 3:12) and Al Hayah Al Youm (watch, runtime: 12:53)
