The European Union is the largest of contributor of development assistance to Egypt, where a military-backed interim government ousted the country’s first democratically elected leader, Mohammed Morsi, on 3 July. After days of bloody unrest, there was no sign that the country's benefactors were prepared to reduce aid.

  • On June 3rd , 33 Million egyptiens went out to the squares all around Egypt with only one demand;precipitated presidential elections due to the complete failure of the elected president to achieve any of the claims of the 25th of January 2011 revolution.
    The egyptian military has cautioned the president on several occasions that the situation is very critical ,and that the president should take political steps to remedy to the forseen confrontations.The president insisted on his denial of the real issues and issued threats to all his opponents in a public speech . A
    momentum was given to reach a polical exit. Shockingly
    the president reacts by a violent speech ,attacking and threatening every member of the opposition. The egyptian military who took side to 25 Million egyptians
    who rose against Mubarak regime 0n 25-1-2011, could not
    betray the 33 Million egyptians who rose against Moursi
    regime on 30-6-2013. This is an historical revolution
    of peacefull citizens,and their honest army ensured the
    safety of peacefull revolutionaries; and that's any
    army constitutional duty.
