It was rather a mixed bag on talks shows yesterday<\/strong>, with the talking heads focusing on yesterday\u2019s meeting between President El Sisi and Jordan\u2019s King Abdullah, the return of BMWs to Egypt, and record gold prices.<\/p>\n

Talks between President Sisi and Jordan\u2019s King Abdullah got coverage <\/strong>by Ala Mas\u2019ouleety (watch, runtime: 6:53<\/a>) and Al Hayah Al Youm\u2019s Lobna Assal (watch, runtime: 6:00<\/a>), who talked to Jordanian political analyst Monther Howarat about the meeting (watch, runtime: 7:38<\/a>). Howarat emphasized the timing of Abdullah\u2019s visit, which came ahead of his tour to Algeria and Italy and El Sisi\u2019s visit to the US later this month. The crisis in Palestine was one of the main topics on the agenda, and while neither government has provided details on the conversation, Howarat noted that the visit comes as far-right political parties are poised to enter the Israeli government.<\/p>\n

Long queues to pre-order BMWs got the attention of Amr Adib <\/strong>(watch, runtime: 8:11<\/a>), who talked to automotive expert Mahmoud Khairy about the coming reentry<\/a> of the German cars into the Egyptian market. Khairy told the El Hekaya host that prices of the BMW brands \u201chave embarrassed\u201d other players in the market, with prices of some of the luxury brand\u2019s vehicles close to those of overpriced non-luxury brands in the market. However, he warned that the majority of those standing in the queues overnight were actually traders looking to resell the cars at higher prices.<\/p>\n

The latest on the National Dialogue: <\/strong>The National Dialogue\u2019s board of trustees have finalized topics that will be discussed, senator and trustee Emad El Din Hussein told Al Hayah Al Youm (watch, runtime: 12:41<\/a>). Daily meetings will take place from Monday to decide who will participate in the dialogue\u2019s sessions. They would be selected from nominations submitted by the country\u2019s political parties, syndicates, and others. The meetings would also discuss the dialogue mechanism and logistics, including the number of attendees and others.<\/p>\n
