Calls suggest open discussion of an overthrow of the Bahraini government and manipulation of the situation through Al Jazeera.

of Egypt in the foreign press this morning is (at long last) an<\/strong><strong>economic story: GE\u2019s USD 575 mn agreement<\/strong> to supply Egypt with locomotives. By far the most interesting coverage is coming from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2017-06-17\/ge-sees-tremendous-opportunities-in-mideast-across-sectors\">Bloomberg\u2019s Deena Kamel<\/a>, which places the agreement in the wider context of GE\u2019s expansion in the region, including in Turkey and Algeria, and across a wide array of sectors. GE \u201cis interested in railway opportunities in Turkey and Algeria as well as the next phase of Egypt\u2019s transport expansion,\u201d GE\u2019s Vice Chairman John Rice told Bloomberg. \u201cDemand for infrastructure continues unabated, the region is shifting to renewables, which is becoming more and more important, and health care is significant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tying for first place are wire pickups of the sentencing to death of 31 Islamists<\/strong> for the assassination of Prosecutor General Hisham Barakat, with many,<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-middle-east-40313267\">including the BBC<\/a>, stressing Hamas\u2019 continued denial of its involvement and accusations that the suspects confessions were coerced.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Repression of basic freedoms in Egypt is intensifying<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrw.org\/news\/2017\/06\/15\/egypt-intensifying-repression-basic-freedoms\">Human Rights Watch<\/a> says. It claims that \u201cauthorities in recent weeks have arrested at least 50 peaceful political activists, blocked at least 62 websites, and opened a criminal prosecution against a former presidential candidate \u2026 The actions are further closing any remaining space for free expression.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Claims that President Abdel Fattah El Sisi reportedly suggested expanding the blockade<\/strong><strong>of Qatar to include Turkey<\/strong> are being widely picked up in the Turkish press. Newspapers including <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yenisafak.com\/en\/world\/egypts-sisi-boycott-against-qatar-should-include-turkey-2722684\">Yeni Safak<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.anews.com.tr\/world\/2017\/06\/15\/boycott-against-qatar-should-include-turkey-putschist-sisi-says\">A News<\/a> are citing as their sources the New Arab, which Egypt has banned.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.ug\/gated-compounds-keep-rich-away-cairos-chaos\/\"><strong>AFP ran a facile piece on gated communities<\/strong><\/a><strong> in the Greater Cairo area as a <\/strong><strong>focal point for class warfare and inequality.<\/strong> Upward mobile Cairenes are increasingly looking to buy into exclusive gated communities that shield them from social pressure just as the percentage of Egyptians unable to provide for themselves or their family\u2019s basic needs rose to 27.8% in 2015, from 16.7% in 2000. Egypt faces significant challenges on the inequality front, but the story unfortunately does little to advance debate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Arab world\u2019s intellectual leaders would, in a perfect world, \u201cthink collectively <\/strong><strong>and the nations act in concert to ease the situation,\u201d<\/strong> Nabeel Khoury writes for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.atlanticcouncil.org\/blogs\/new-atlanticist\/the-arab-world-s-sorry-state\">Atlantic Council<\/a>, commenting on the schism with Qatar. \u201cUnfortunately, this is an age of intellectual decline in the Arab world. There are no literary giants or political philosophers to offer guidance, no benevolent rulers to persuade rather than coerce, and no solidarity among the big powers to help ease the pain\u2014conditions which are likely to endure and fester for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/egypt-in-the-news\/\">Egypt in the News<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"646552\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"646552\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">7<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Worth watching<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2017\/06\/18\/we-expect-to-hear-from-the-imf-on-the-second-tranche-in-a-few-weeks-time\/\">\r\n                            We expect to hear from the IMF on the second tranche in a few weeks\u2019 time                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2017\/06\/18\/we-expect-to-hear-from-the-imf-on-the-second-tranche-in-a-few-weeks-time\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();

The first allows TE to use Etisalat\u2019s infrastructure to offer 2G, 3G, and 4G services, while the second lets Etisalat use TE\u2019s international gates for overseas voice services. TE signed a similar agreement with Orange Egypt in April and is reportedly <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/06\/14\/te-signs-domestic-roaming-agreement-with-etisalat\/\">still in talks<\/a> with Vodafone Egypt. The country\u2019s MNOs will be receiving their 4G frequencies this week, ICT Minister Yasser El Kadi told the press on Saturday, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.almalnews.com\/Story\/337508\/17\/%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%B6%D9%8A--%D8%AA%D8%B3%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%85-%D8%AA%D8%B1%D8%AF%D8%AF%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AC%D9%8A%D9%84-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%A8%D8%B9-%D9%84%D9%84%D8%B4%D8%B1%D9%83%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D8%B3%D8%A8%D9%88%D8%B9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AD%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%8A\">according to Al Mal<\/a>. The companies had reached an agreement with Telecom Egypt (TE) officials <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/06\/14\/te-signs-domestic-roaming-agreement-with-etisalat\/\">last week<\/a> over the geographic redistribution of 3G frequencies, which the ICT Ministry had set as a prerequisite to the activation of 4G services.
