Barring unforeseen circumstances, this win would extend El Sisi's tenure to 16 years.

The recent withdrawal of Ahmed El Tantawy, a former legislator and vocal critic of El Sisi, dealt a significant blow to any hopes of a genuine contest. Citing government intimidation and harassment, El Tantawy abandoned the race, leaving voters with limited alternatives and sparking concerns about the state of democracy in Egypt.

The absence of a credible contender has left citizens indifferent, with many assuming El Sisi's victory as a foregone conclusion. Shady Lewis Botros, a prominent novelist and political commentator, lamented the lack of intrigue in the election, stating, "The only chance this election had to be interesting was El Tantawy, but he could not even run

El Tantawy's withdrawal and subsequent legal challenges, including forgery charges against him and his supporters, underscore the challenges faced by those daring to oppose the incumbent. This situation raises questions about the fairness of the electoral process and the level of political freedom in the country.

As Egypt navigates this electoral landscape, the lack of genuine competition raises concerns about the health of its democratic institutions. The upcoming election seems poised to reaffirm El Sisi's dominance, leaving citizens to ponder the future of pluralistic politics in the nation.

-
The advance made by the United States in the approval of cutting-edge Nvidia chips to G42 is a historic development for UAE’s artificial intelligence ambitions. This strategy thus not only represents significant technological growth but also marks an important political milestone for UAE that wants to portray itself as a global hub for technology. In particular, accessing advanced AI technologies such as Nvidia’s H100 models has been significantly hindered over the years due to fears about UAE-China relations, with the US tightening its export restrictions in the area. However, this recent endorsement—a fact which received little attention—shows that there is now greater strategic flexibility and demonstrates how committed UAE is towards ensuring it stays clear from any possible Chinese influence if it wants to become one of our most reliable partners. The timing for G42’s bold distribution of these Nvidia chips could not be better. With worldwide AI rivalry heating up after the advent...
