href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/EgyptianCabinet\/posts\/1906561619522194\">said during a meeting<\/a> with Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly on Thursday. This comes as part of a 5 mn-dose batch that Covax promised to deliver to Egypt after the first 854k-dose batch of vaccines from the program was received on <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/71d6f4da-5532-481e-8b01-d60c79d39528\">1 April<\/a>. Egypt placed a 40 mn-shot order through Covax, which it\u2019s expecting to receive in multiple batches throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More Sinopharm vaccines are also on the way<\/strong><strong>:<\/strong> Another 500k-dose batch of China\u2019s Sinopharm vaccine is set to land in Egypt \u201csoon,\u201d as part of the 20 mn doses Egypt has purchased, Zayed said, without disclosing a specific timeline. We have so far <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/5d6f2923-22e5-45ba-bbdb-95040fb52ca8\">received 680k doses<\/a> of Sinopharm, which has <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/03ce2265-7c1a-4c16-8f49-ea5d1489af0b\">claimed a 79% efficacy rate<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Inching closer to Sinovac manufacturing?<\/strong> Procedures are \u201cunderway\u201d to begin manufacturing China\u2019s Sinovac vaccine in Egypt through state-owned Vacsera, along with Pharco\u2019s BioGeneric Pharma and Eva Pharma, the minister said, without providing further details. Egypt plans to manufacture 80 mn doses each year of the Chinese vaccine. Director of the China Centers for Disease Control Gao Fu <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/5d6f2923-22e5-45ba-bbdb-95040fb52ca8\">said last week<\/a> that both Sinopharm and Sinovac \u201cdon't have high protection rates\u201d before <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/8adea449-414c-4522-ab16-72a652c6cdf3\">backtracking<\/a> to say that comments were \u201ctaken out of context.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry called on the international community to ensure <\/strong><strong>that vaccines are distributed fairly around the world<\/strong> in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/EgyptianCabinet\/photos\/a.825570437621323\/1908147456030277\/\">statement<\/a> during a virtual meeting with the United Nations Economic and Social Council on Thursday. Part of the reason that developing countries are struggling to inoculate their populations is because vaccine production is monopolized by high-income countries, he said, urging manufacturers to allow more low- and middle-income countries to produce the shots. Egypt is one of 180 countries to have joined the UN <a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/pga\/75\/2021\/03\/26\/informal-meeting-of-the-plenary-on-the-political-declaration-on-equitable-global-access-to-covid-19-vaccines\/\">Political Declaration on Equitable Global Access to Covid-19 Vaccines<\/a>, which aims to help developing countries access vaccines at reasonable prices.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Health Ministry <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/egypt.mohp\/posts\/360494692167816\">reported<\/a><\/strong><strong> 845 new covid-19 infections yesterday<\/strong>, up from 841 the day before. Egypt has now disclosed a total of 215,484 confirmed cases of covid-19.

The fund fully owns the building, which will be transformed into a mixed-use development that includes a hotel as well as commercial, administrative and cultural spaces. The fund plans to contract with a private sector player as part of the transformation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The partnership model:<\/strong> The SFE will contribute to the technical studies and surveying work, while the partner will finance the development. The fund has issued the conditions booklet for the project to foreign and local investors and developers, and an agreement may be reached <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/f302005a-4921-4dbb-8223-bea106883cf9\">by 3Q2021<\/a>. The statement does not make clear whether the private sector partner will be involved on an equity, revenue or profit sharing basis.

The Taiwanese firm is now considering this option after the Ever Given was <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/3eb957c5-fd2a-457b-8f63-a3f5d2e7093e\">seized last week<\/a> by the Suez Canal Authority as it looks to reach a compensation agreement with the ship\u2019s owner. Evergreen could deploy empty ships to carry cargo or load boxes onto other container ships, although the prospect of ship-to-ship offloading presents its own set of challenges.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Evergreen has not yet reached a final decision on the fate of containers on standby<\/strong> until a financial settlement for the six-day blockage of the canal is reached. \u201cThe possibility of the vessel and the cargo on board being treated separately,\u201d however, is on the table, the shipping company said on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And the crew? Two can leave. The rest must stay.<\/strong> Two crew members were allowed on Thursday to leave the vessel and return to India due to \u201curgent personal circumstances,\u201d Rabie said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SuezCanalAuthorityEG\/photos\/a.125151839125856\/429551902019180\/\">statement<\/a>. The SCA stressed its cooperation with the shipping agency to make sure that all crew\u2019s needs are met.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The SCA is doing what it can to get the process moving, but negotiations could take time<\/strong>, SCA Chairman Osama Rabie said in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SuezCanalAuthorityEG\/photos\/a.125151839125856\/429551902019180\/\">a statement<\/a> over the weekend. The authority wants the impounded vessel to depart from the Great Bitter Lake \u2014 where it is currently anchored for inspection \u2014 as soon as possible and is being \u201chighly cooperative\u201d with both shipowner Shoei Kisen and the ship's insurer to reach an agreement that satisfies all parties involved, according to Rabie. The SCA is demanding the owner\u2019s insurer to pay USD 916 mn in compensation for damages to the canal\u2019s embankment and blockage of marine traffic for almost a week, which cost <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/4efd50e1-28c6-41ca-a0cf-80f560f683a3\">around USD 90 mn<\/a> in foregone revenues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The results of the investigation still aren\u2019t out \u2014 but that\u2019s not stopping the leaks to <\/strong><strong>the press:<\/strong> The SCA\u2019s investigation into the Ever Given\u2019s grounding showed that the main cause was a technical failure and an error made by the ship\u2019s captain, unnamed sources at the authority told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.elwatannews.com\/news\/details\/5441635\">El Watan<\/a>, without disclosing further information.

Hamdok urged the three countries\u2019 prime ministers to accept <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/e8d22435-a990-4aee-b7e4-8c02e204d08a\">his invitation to meet<\/a> in an attempt to resolve the impasse, after ministerial talks failed to yield a breakthrough. Last week, Hamdok suggested holding the prime minister-level summit within 10 days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Egypt already has the same plan:<\/strong> Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry has said on multiple occasions that Egypt <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/fed1a86a-7b61-41be-828c-d1a714e4de03\">could take up the matter<\/a> with the UN Security Council, but appears to have taken a step in that direction after speaking with UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres about the talks and penning letters to each of the UN General Assembly and the Security Council <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/e8d22435-a990-4aee-b7e4-8c02e204d08a\">last week<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What can the Security Council do, again?<\/strong> If the GERD issue is brought to the Security Council, the 15-member UN committee can issue a resolution that is considered binding, but is not tantamount to international law. The resolution would have to get backing from at least nine members, and not be vetoed by one of the five permanent members \u2014 the US, UK, France, China, and Russia. While Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia are currently not members of the council, they would be permitted to join the council\u2019s discussions on the matter but would not vote on a resolution. Egypt and Sudan could, theoretically speaking, be given the green light from the council to take action (including military action) if the council agreed that Ethiopia poses a threat to international peace and security, as per <a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/en\/about-us\/un-charter\/chapter-7\">Chapter 7 of the UN Charter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Meanwhile, we\u2019re still drumming up more international support:<\/strong> President Abdel Fattah El Sisi discussed the GERD issue with Djibouti President Ismail Omar Guelleh on Thursday, according to an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Egy.Pres.Spokesman\/posts\/1132924307226948?__cft__[0]=AZUOdjIOWIpaq2foLad155hPiHkDA6IqMsgof1_6JMsLm2tMzy1brZtrKxCHgA-A-MRjd2E-hk5tmzxl7b9pT1sa--zOCdDTLRwSEDl3nQ05DNTnAamzqMmZrOkbgplcvZ8-iOfjU5ZORIi5i51OyN97&__tn__=%2CO%2CP-R\">Ittihadiya statement<\/a> that is otherwise scant on details.

Ethiopia rejected a Sudanese proposal to bring in new international mediators, insisting instead that the negotiations continue to be sponsored by the AU.

Bank of America\u2019s performance comes as it released USD 2.7 bn in loan-loss reserves over the quarter, which was also marked by a boom in global trading \u2014 driven in part by a Reddit-fueled trading frenzy in meme stocks like GameStop \u2014 that also boosted investment banking gains.<\/p><p><strong>Morgan Stanley, meanwhile, rounded out an all-time great <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2021\/4\/Morgan-Stanley-1q2021.pdf\">first quarter (pdf)<\/a><\/strong><strong>, thanks to its<\/strong> <strong>institutional securities business growing 66% y-o-y.<\/strong> While its investment banking revenue more than doubled y-o-y to USD 2.6 bn in 1Q2021, Morgan Stanley lost a total of USD 911 mn in the collapse of Archegos Capital Management, marking the only major US bank to be nursing losses from the family office's debacle, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/b589c3f5-9175-4572-bb7e-02ad17e414c1\">Financial Times<\/a> reports.<\/p><p><strong>A consortium led by EIG Global Energy Partners is getting a 49% stake in Aramco <\/strong><strong>OIl Pipelines by issuing USD 10.5 bn in long-tenor bonds<\/strong> to replace \u201cstaple financing\u201d backing the stake acquisition, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/energy\/exclusive-aramco-pipeline-investors-refinance-loans-with-bonds-next-year-sources-2021-04-15\/\">Reuters<\/a> reports.

Ma may be asked to cede control of the company and divest his stake seemingly at the behest of the Chinese central bank and the country\u2019s financial regulator, which have discussed his exit with the company and with Ma himself, the newswire says. The claims come as the Chinese government takes an increasingly hard line against the country\u2019s most powerful tech companies.
