<\/a> El Sisi talks terrorism, Ikhwan, political prisoners in CBS 60 Minutes interview:<\/b> Egypt has been cooperating with Israel in the sweeping anti-terrorism campaign in Sinai, which is necessary to allow Egypt\u2019s Air Force to cross into Israeli airspace, President Abdel Fattah El Sisi said in an interview on CBS\u2019 60 Minutes.<\/p>\n

El Sisi defended Egypt\u2019s efforts to wipe out terrorism in the peninsula \u2014 and the US providing some USD 1.3 bn per year in military aid<\/b> to support these efforts, saying that the US is \u201cinvesting in security and stability in the region.\u201d Alluding to the difficulty in completely quashing a militant insurgency, the president said that the US failed to defeat terrorism in Afghanistan \u201cafter 17 years and spending USD 1 tn.\u201d The statement comes amid reports that the US House of Representatives wants to maintain a USD 300 mn freeze on military aid to Egypt.<\/p>\n

The president also denied that Egypt has political prisoners or prisoners of opinion<\/b>, saying that those who organizations such as Human Rights Watch count as such are a minority trying to impose their extremist thoughts on the rest of the country. Referencing the Ikhwan, El Sisi said that Egypt would \u201cwelcome them to live among the people\u201d if they were not violent or trying to \u201cdestroy the Egyptian economy.\u201d Host Scott Pelley also spoke to US citizen and former Islamist prisoner Mohamed Soltan about his arrest during the Raba\u2019a sit-in and his time in prison, where he alleges he was \u201csystematically\u201d subjected to inhumane conditions.<\/p>\n

The interview is guiding the conversation on Egypt in the foreign press<\/b>, with the discussions being largely focused on the cooperation between Egypt and Israel and reports that Egypt tried to prevent the interview from being aired. Reuters says<\/a> El Sisi\u2019s confirmation that Egypt\u2019s military is cooperating with Israel is a \u201crare acknowledgement\u201d of what \u201ccan be a sensitive topic in Egypt.\u201d The FT\u2019s Heba Saleh<\/a> is noting CBS\u2019 allegations that the government attempted to have the interview pulled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
