It was all COP all night long on the talk shows last night<\/strong> as the talking heads recapped the opening ceremony and the first day of the leaders\u2019 summit.<\/p>\n

President El Sisi\u2019s opening address and his plea to end the war in Ukraine<\/strong> received coverage from everyone, including Kelma Akhira (watch, runtime: 10:59<\/a>), Masaa DMC (watch, runtime: 2:16)<\/a> and Al Hayah Al Youm (watch, runtime: 0:58<\/a>) and others. UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres\u2019s speech in the summit was picked up by Kelma Akhira (watch, runtime: 2:45<\/a>) and Masaa DMC (watch, runtime: 2:45<\/a>). Check out this morning\u2019s COP Watch, above, for more on the summit.<\/p>\n

Ahmed Moussa went full Moussa:<\/strong> Ala Mas\u2019ouleety\u2019s Ahmed Moussa stayed true to character with breathless descriptions of the summit, declaring it a success on Day two because \u201ceveryone is here\u201d (except the leaders of China, India and Russia) and talking proudly about Egypt\u2019s notices in the foreign press (though we\u2019re not sure he\u2019s read many of the headlines) (watch, runtime: 10:33<\/a>). El Hekaya\u2019s Amr Adib was more measured in his coverage (watch, runtime: 23:07<\/a>), highlighting attendance by top officials to the summit. \u201cEveryone is in positive anticipation, they really want to do something,\u201d he said, stressing the need for implementation.<\/p>\n

El <\/strong>Sisi\u2019s meetings with several world leaders got a lot of attention.<\/strong> Moussa was ecstatic with how the meeting with new UK PM Rishi Sunak went down, asking his viewers to check how assertive the Egyptian president\u2019s body language was while they discussed the awkward subject of Alaa Abdel Fattah (watch, runtime: 4:41<\/a>). Moussa wasn\u2019t particularly sympathetic to Abdel Fattah\u2019s case and called for authorities to hold him accountable. El Sisi\u2019s meeting with Italian PM Giorgia Meloni got a mention from Al Hayah Al Youm (watch, runtime: 2:17<\/a>).<\/p>\n
