also wary of iran, growing influence at their borders. but the middle east is changing and with it, the nature of the ties between egypt and israel stance appears to be more embracing . we have to remember that this comes against the backdrop of the normalization agreements that were signed last year between israel and for error countries. this represents a type of opportunity for a country like egypt to become more public, if you will, about its relationship with israel. obviously there's a, there's a strategic relationship there, there's an economic relationship. but i think the cc administration or the c c regime rather views this as an opportunity to become more public, a chance to curry favor with the, the bite and administration in the united states. then it as described a meeting held in the c resort of

6:22 am
a lifeline. how will the government spend it? will it continue subsidizing goods, a policy which has been criticized because it has led to modeling and importers hoarding fuel and creating a black markets, or will it use this money to support what half a 1000000 families vulnerable families who are desperately in need of a $100.00 cash for assistance every month. so the economy has collapsed more than 80 percent of the population port. the currency has collapsed. so a lot of challenges i had, but that $1000000000.00, of course, it will help, but that is a short term solution. what this government needs to come up with is a sustainable path to recovery. noise center left opposition parties of one, a decisive victory the countries general election labor leader jonas costume was expected to meet the minority government. all former coalition against the ations on like to focus on oil policy and always relations with the youth,
