this week rejoined the country\u2019s cast of talking heads. El Hadidi\u2019s new show, Al Kahera Alaan, airs on Al Hadath TV on Sunday and Monday evenings.<\/p>\n<p><b>President Abdel Fattah El Sisi\u2019s visit to Sochi to head the two-day Russia-Africa Summit<\/b>, which kicks off today,stole the limelight. Hona Al Asema\u2019s Reham Ibrahim was among those with a pen, a paper, and a loud mouth (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zIX1ev77DD0\">watch, runtime: 1:58<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><b>Will El Sisi bring up the flights? <\/b>We remain none the wiser about the current state of play in the negotiations to get Russian airlines back to Sharm El Sheikh after hearing from Russian political analyst Leonid Sukainen, who offered precious little political analysis. \u201cWe have been anticipating over the recent period the resumption of Russia-Egypt flights [to the Red Sea],\u201d he told Al Hayah Al Youm\u2019s Khaled Abu Bakr in a phone call (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Upcl7JuOoXg&t=83s\">watch, runtime: 4:20<\/a>). Sukainen expects El Sisi to discuss energy, military, and economic cooperation with Russian President Vladimir Putin.<\/p>\n<p><b>The Brits are returning to Sharm: <\/b>The UK lifted yesterday its four-year ban on direct flights to Sharm El Sheikh, Abu Bakr noted (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HcrsN7TS0QQ\">watch, runtime: 1:51<\/a>). He <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=z9vGRLzh644\">spoke to Egyptian Tourism Federation member Ali Ghoneim<\/a>, who claimed that the UK was persuaded to return by El Sisi\u2019s diplomatic trips around the world. He also said that the \u201cintensive presence of the private sector in international conferences\u201d was also a factor, which in our view is probably the more plausible explanation. We have more in Speed Round, below.<\/p>\n<p><b>Talking heads pounce on the BBC for interviewing Mohamed Ali: <\/b>The State Information Service rebuked the BBC after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/arabic\/middleeast-50141402\">it announced<\/a> it would broadcast an interview with contractor-turned-exile Mohamed Ali. The report claimed that the BBC has a \u201chistory of lack of professionalism and credibility\u201d and slammed its coverage of the 2017 Daesh attack in Giza. The BBC\u2019s ongoing coverage of the Egyptian judiciary was also a bone of contention. Abu Bakr (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xDCZ2uoNjRI\">watch, runtime: 10:25<\/a>), Masaa DMC\u2019s Ramy Radwan (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=9iSPQ-hmAOk\">watch, runtime: 32:21<\/a>), and Hona Al Asema\u2019s Reham Ibrahim (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XbYBGeOMZaA\">watch, runtime: 8: 26<\/a>) all featured lengthy segments slamming the British broadcaster.<\/p>\n<p>Also getting some airtime yesterday:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Foreign Ministry response to Ethiopia\u2019s PM: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=7eeT-DUMIII\">Radwan<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dTCOZxK6-RY\">Abu Bakr<\/a> both read out a Foreign Ministry\u2019s response to Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, who yesterday hinted at the prospect of war over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (more on this in Speed Round, below). <\/li>\n<li><b>EFA calls off Premier League until U-23 Afcon wraps up: <\/b>The Egyptian Football Association has put off Premier League games until the Africa U23 Cup of Nations wraps up on 22 November, Yahduth Fi Misr\u2019s Sherif Amer reports (<b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jkhbpug9dmw\">watch, runtime: 0:46<\/a><\/b>).

lifts four-year flight ban on Sharm El-Sheikh: <\/b>The British government informed airlines <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/news\/government-lifts-restrictions-on-flights-to-sharm-el-sheikh\">in a statement<\/a> yesterday that it \u201cno longer advises against flying to Egypt\u2019s Sharm El Sheikh Airport.\u201d The announcement puts an end to the UK\u2019s four-year ban on flights, which was introduced after the downing of a Russian airliner in 2015. \u201cWe look forward to services to Sharm El Sheikh resuming and lifting the restriction is the first step in that process,\u201d UK Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said. \u201cWe will now work closely with airlines who wish to resume flights to and from the airport.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>The Foreign and Commonwealth Office has also <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/foreign-travel-advice\/egypt\"><b>updated its Egypt travel advice<\/b><\/a> explaining that they \u201cno longer advise against all but essential travel by air to\/from Sharm el Sheikh.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Tourism Minister Rania Al Mashat <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RaniaAlMashat\/status\/1186591041337597953?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Enews%7Ctwgr%5Etweet\"><b>said the decision<\/b><\/a><b> was a \u201cmessage to the world that Egypt is safe,\u201d<\/b> and noted that the return of British tourists will be a testament to the ongoing cooperation between the two countries.<\/p>\n<p><b>When will flights actually resume?<\/b> TUI was among the travel companies that welcomed the news, stating that it will probably launch the first services in summer 2020, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/business\/2019\/oct\/22\/ban-on-uk-flights-to-sharm-el-sheikh-lifted-after-four-years\">the Guardian notes<\/a>. Airline EasyJet also said in a statement that they were aware of the lifting of the restriction and will look at any options for EasyJet and easyJet Holidays as a result, <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/a3bfec680af440819859cfb396a92bba\">according to AP<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><b>It couldn\u2019t have come at a better time<\/b>, just a month after Egypt faced the possibility of losing thousands of tourists in the aftermath of <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/09\/24\/thousands-of-thomas-cook-reservations-in-egypt-canceled-as-company-goes-bust\/\">Thomas Cook\u2019s collapse<\/a>. Local operator Blue Sky Group was expecting 100k tourists to visit Egypt via Thomas Cook in 2020 and canceled 25k reservations booked up to April 2020. Egypt was one of Thomas Cook\u2019s most rapidly growing markets, with bookings up by 30-40% in 2019. The Tourism Ministry played down the effect to only last a month or two \u2014 with the winter season bearing the brunt of the impact \u2014 before bookings return to their normal levels. The number of UK tourists have grown in recent years, reaching 415,000 visitors in 2018.<\/p>\n<p><b>Background:<\/b> The UK imposed a flight ban to Sharm El Sheikh Airport after the downing of a Russian airliner in 2015. Despite the security situation improving, the UK has been hesitant to give the go-ahead to airlines to return. Some UK MPs <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2018\/03\/27\/uk-mps-are-calling-on-govt-to-end-its-ban-on-flights-into-sharm\/\">had called for<\/a> the resumption of flights, questioning why the UK is one of the last countries in Europe to retain the travel ban.<\/p>\n<p><b>Fingers crossed: Abu Ali says the Russians will be back \u201cvery soon.\u201d <\/b>Head of hotel management

Abu Ali said<\/a> said the lifting of restrictions would prompt Russia to do away with its own ban in \u201cmere days.\u201d Russian authorities <a

This season definitely topped the last with a look at foods that have a much wider global significance.<\/p>\n<p><b>Want a healthy avocado from Mexico for lunch<\/b> (Mexico has the biggest market share in global avocado exports)? Some of that money probably ended up in the pockets of drug cartels. <b>A nice chocolate bar for dessert?<\/b> You\u2019ve probably unwittingly contributed to the virtual enslavement of some villages in C\u00f4te d'Ivoire. Just washed it down with a nice cold bottle of water? Well, that water was probably the only supply of some impoverished community, and it can\u2019t be replenished (not to mention that giant plastic iceberg floating in the pacific).<\/p>\n<p>No other series we\u2019ve seen recently has really made us think hard about the consequences of how the global supply chain of the foods we eat every day was set up. Not to mention making us feel very guilty about eating a nice bar of chocolate (thanks, Netflix).
