As the Guardian reports: The official COP27 app, which has already been downloaded more than 5,000 times, requires sweeping permi...

Egypt is Walking a Tightrope on the Ukraine Crisis

Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, June/July 2022, pp. 38-39 Special Report By Dr. Mohammad Salami THE IMPACT of the Russian invasion of Ukraine has spread beyond Europe. In fact, its economic and political challenges are affecting every country in the world, including Egypt. Along with less bread on the table in Lebanon, Yemen and elsewhere in the Arab world, where millions already struggle to survive, Egypt is facing major challenges to its food security, tourism industry and its need for political neutrality. Egypt is at a crossroads in the choice between Russia and Western-backed Ukraine, and it has seen its best choice as neutrality and the pursuit of a middle ground. Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has deep economic and political ties wit...

A Ceasefire in Yemen After Seven Years: Are US-Backed Saudi/Emirati Aggression and War Crimes Finally Over?

by Doug Bandow  As Russia’s war against Ukraine rages, there is hope that the even deadlier war in Yemen might finally end. The warring parties have agreed to a ceasefire which, unlike previous pacts, so far has held. This is surprisingly good news, most importantly for the Yemeni people, but also for America’s international reputation. Even as Russia faced global censure for its unjustified aggression against Ukraine and brutal attack on Ukrainian cities, the US and other Western governments continued to back the deadlier Saudi and Emirati campaign against their impoverished neighbor. Despite Washington’s support for the wealthy Gulf monarchies, they were unexpectedly bested by an indigenous Yemeni insurgency led by the group Ansar Allah, also known as the Houthis. Although ...

Misconceptions: From Egypt’s Ashraf Marwan to Ukraine’s Zelensky and Russia’s Putin

Gilad Atzmon writes Jerusalem 1973 Ashraf Marwan is a controversial figure within Israel’s intelligence community. Some regard him as Israel’s best ever Arab spy, others see him as an Egyptian spymaster who misled the Israeli military ahead of the 1973 war that was a military disaster for the Jewish state. In June 2007 Marwan “fell” from the balcony of his London house. His wife and many commentators accused the Mossad of the assassination. Marwan was born in 1944 to an influential Egyptian family. At the age of 21 he married Mona Nasser, President Jamal Abdel Nasser’s second daughter, and secured his place in the corridors of power in 1960s Cairo. Following its humiliating defeat in the 1967 war, Egypt started to prepare its military to take back the Sinai ...
