The following is a link to an excellent interview conducted by Tim Sebastian for Deutsche Welle’s Conflict Zone on 20th January 2016. Here, Egypt’s Foreign Minister is grilled on what Tim Sebastian says, (citing statistics), are continuing abuses of human rights in Egypt since Sisi came to power; particularly those in relation to freedom of speech and how political prisoners are treated in prison.
Whilst Mr Shoukry is never short for a response, it is clear that he parry’s around the issues and many questions remain unanswered or unacknowledged.
