The presidential elections continued to be the most popular topic of discussion<\/strong> on the airwaves last night.<\/p>\n

Hona Al Asema\u2019s Lamees Al Hadidi spoke to presidential candidate Moussa Mostafa Moussa<\/strong>, who told the host that he had actually decided to run a while back, but reconsidered his decision when former Prime Minister Ahmed Shafik was still a contender, since he felt like \u201cit wouldn\u2019t look right\u201d to compete with Shafik and President Abdel Fattah El Sisi. He then postponed his announcement that he wouldn\u2019t run when Shafik withdrew because he had yet to collect the required citizen or MP endorsements (watch, runtime: 3:16<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Moussa\u2019s lawyer, Samir Elewa, phoned in to reassure Lamees that Moussa has a university degree<\/strong> \u2014 as is legally required of a presidential candidate \u2014 in architecture from a French university. He then acted as Moussa\u2019s verbal LinkedIn profile, telling Lamees that he is a businessman with several major companies under his belt (watch, runtime: 3:36<\/a>).<\/p>\n

In non-election coverage, Transport Minister Hisham Arafat gave Lamees the rundown on new railway ticket prices, which are coming into effect. <\/strong>Tickets for short-distance trains that travel between Cairo\u2019s suburbs rise 80%, which could come to EGP 2-3. VIP train tickets with be hiked 25%, while those for the French and Spanish air-conditioned trains will see a 40% jump (watch, runtime: 20:50<\/a>).<\/p>\n

In sharp about-face, Kol Youm\u2019s Amr Adib tried to convince his viewers that a single-candidate election would be nothing of which to be ashamed, <\/strong>after calling a one-candidate election a \u201cpolitical disaster\u201d for the better part of a few months now, pointing to the Dostour Party\u2019s 2017 internal elections, which saw party head Khaled Dawood winning in an uncontested run (watch, runtime: 5:50<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Journalist Abdel Halim Kandil told Adib that El Sisi was guaranteed to win regardless how many candidates ran against him<\/strong>, saying the president still enjoys wide popularity despite his approval ratings dipping on the back of the economic reform program (watch, runtime: 1:30<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Adib also discussed El Sisi\u2019s meeting with Sudan and Ethiopia\u2019s leaders yesterday on the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam<\/strong>, saying it offered a ray of hope that the gridlock will be resolved (we have details on the meeting in Speed Round, below) (watch, runtime: 7:38<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Al Hayah Al Youm\u2019s Tamer Amin echoed Adib\u2019s sentiments<\/strong>, concluding that the construction of the dam is not an act of hostility from Ethiopia and that any kinks between the three countries on the matter will soon be ironed out (watch, runtime: 7:41<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Foreign Ministry spokesman Ahmed Abu Zeid <\/strong>also said El Sisi\u2019s statements following the meeting indicate that the three countries are determined to work together in resolving the issue and cooperating in other areas (watch, runtime: 3:25<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Direct Moscow-Cairo flights to resume next week? <\/strong>Meanwhile on Masaa DMC, Atef Aglan, a member of the government committee working to get Russian flights back into the air to Egypt, told host Eman El Hosary that direct flights between Moscow and Cairo will resume on 6 February. (Last we heard from the Ruskies<\/a>, Aeroflot will not be operating any flights between the two capitals until late February). Aglan also said that flights to Sharm El Sheikh and Hurghada could see a comeback in April, once Russia\u2019s presidential elections are through. Once Russian tourists return to Egypt, they could generate between USD 4 and 5 bn in tourism revenues for the country, Aglan said (watch, runtime: 7:32<\/a>). Based on statements from Russian Deputy Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich, which we note in the speed round, we will take Aglan\u2019s comments with a grain of salt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
