that is not working in egypt. no matter how much trump might embrace sisi, i don't see him trying to fix that problem. are indications that egypt is shifting out of this fear of influence of saudi arabia for a little bit -- for example, buying oil from iraq -- and shifting more into iran's influence. presumably that would worry is administered. -- this administers an. michele: there are a lot of contradictions --right, right. as a wants to see sisi muslim leader who is going to crack down on islamists. at the same time, there are contradictions in the middle east policy. iran is a big one. not only related to egypt, but syria -- katty: russia. michele: exactly. trump wants to work with russia on syria and yet russia is allied with iran on syria he will keep walking into these contradictions a seat tries to put forward -- katty: having bilateral relations are complicated when countries are connected in different ways. quickly, the silence on the middle east more broadly on the immigration ban. michele: the silence

at the same the cia decided to send him to egypt because there was an adage send him to egypt in the morning and you get the answers in the afternoon. the answers they got were that saddam hussein had weapons of mass destruction and was working with al-qaeda to share them. that was the bases of colin powell's speech. we went into iraq on the base of that mistaken tortured lie. america was changing as a response to terrorism. the jihad was also changing. we think often times that isis is like the child of al-qaeda but the truth is, and you might envision it more like the younger brother, when i was researching al-qaeda and afghanistan, i was puzzled. where are the jordanians and the lebanese and the palestinians? the area of the middle east we call the sham in arabic or the la vont. i found there was oaring training camp in -- another -- al-qaeda ran by a man at the time same who a progenitor of isis. laden gave him money, $5,000, to keep him quiet. there were two very different men. bin laden was an international business man. he had an agenda that was mainly to drive the west out of

then it goes through very distinct phases. >> i wanted to use this as an example, egypt egypt at the time was welcoming country. was being led by mohammed -- who is a muslim brother and link to a syrian refugees and welcome syrians with opened arm. they really felt this welcome. every time they saw the official they expected that to be someone menacing. instead, he said oh you're our and sisters come you don't need to pay. and they felt this when they arrived at the time i had some connection where they ended up on the coast near alexandria. not only the refugee community but so did the egyptian community. then things change politically. there is a cool and i know government came into power. there were statements made on the television channels and the people who use 29 smile at them when they walked in the afternoon down the coast started giving them and averting giving them cold stares. it felt hostile. there is very little money,. >> host: there's political leadership there's a change in the middle of this is quite dramatic. >> we see this all around the world. we have an internat

egypt, at the time, was a very welcoming country. led my mohammed morsi who was muslim brotherhood and felt links to the syrian refuges who felt forced to flee the syrian opposition and welcomed syrians with open arms. when they got off the ferry in egypt, every time thaw saw san official they expected them to be menacing but instead you are brother and sister, you don't need to pay. they felt when they arrived at the town they had a connection where they ended up on the coast near alexandria. not only the syrian refuge community already there came out to welcome them but so did the egyptian community and provided donations. they felt welcomed. but things changed politically and there was a new coop. there were statements made on the television channels and the people who used to nod and smile at them when they walked down along the coast in the afternoon started averting their eye and giving them cold stares. it felt hostile -- the environment. it was not only difficult because there was little money but they no longer felt welcome.

her family is getting threats in egypt. >> guest: yes. she gave a few news interviews because you can imagine the media attention when the press a learned that there was this rescue, and there was a young 19-year-old woman and a small 18 month old baby who spent four days on the water and manage to survive when 500 others had died. the little girl was taken to the pediatric hospital on crete and the doctors who i spoken to, they thought she was on the edge of death. she is echoing to pull through. if she does maybe brain-damaged, but i can tell you if there is one place you would want to be if you're in that kind of condition, it would be crete because those wonderful doctors and nurses, they not only had fantastic medical care but they showered her with love and they were hugging her and singing to her all the time. that little girl pulled through, and the entire population of greece i think wanted to a doctor. and meanwhile, doaa is recovery in another hospital, and she's getting messages from all over. doaa, do you know what happened t

because there's adage in the agency at the time, send them to egypt. in the morning you get the ans in the afternoon. and so the answer they got were that saddam hussein has weapons of mass destruction and was working withed a quite to share them -- al qaeda to share them and that was the basis of colin powell's speech the united nations. so went into iraq on the basis of that mistaken tortured lie. so, america wag -- was changing, as a response to terrorism, but jihad was also changing. we think often times that isis is like the child of al qaeda. but in truth you might envision it more like the younger brother. when i was researching al qaeda in afghanistan, i was puzzled. where are the jordanians and the lebanese and the palestinians? the area of the middle east that we call the levant or the sham in arabic. where are they? you think they'd be in al qaeda. and i found there was actually another training camp in al qaeda the same time, run by a man named al sarcar we and he is a progeneral tar of isis. bin laden gave him some money, $5,000. day were

>> egypt at the time was a very welcoming country. it was being led by the muslim brotherhood and felt very linked to the syrian refuges who felt forced to flee and welcomed syrians with open arms. they felt the welcome. when they got off the ferry in egypt, every time they saw an official they expected that person to be menacing but instead you are brothers and sisters and don't need to pay. pushing threw the lines and felt when they arrived at the town they had connection where they ended up on the coast near alexanderia. the syrian refuge community that was there came out to welcome them and so did the egyptian community. they felt welcomwelcomed but th changed. there was a coop and statements made on the television channels and the people who used to nod and smile at them when they walked along the coast in the afternoon starting giving them cold stares. it was difficult because there was so little money but they no longer felt it was a safe place. we see this all-around the world. we have an international refuge convention. the c

yousef: i want to cross over to egypt. i pulled up the start in which our viewers can do as well -- i pulled up this chart, in which our viewers can do as well. of egyptian stocks. what are you saying in terms of trends on the back of that circled area, which was a devaluation in november? egyptt we are seeing in is a huge increase in net foreign inflows. the currency has overshot. on the economic side, the reforms the egyptian government is doing. the rally in egypt is about 20% since the float and that is positive. we are buyers of financials in that market. real incomes have been hit really hard. if you look at the banks, you have about 30%. for the industrials, they are coming back from a very low base. there is more scope for the egyptian story. tracy: when it comes to egypt, we are expecting an update from ftse and that update could come when investors are still concerned about the ability to get money out of the country. >> last thursday night, they said they are removing the restrictions they have imposed on egypt

egypt and cameroon play in the final of the africa cup of nations this evening, egypt are seeking a record eighth title, cameroon have already won it four times. this report from libreville in gabon. 16 teams came to gabon for the biggest sporting event in africa, just egypt and cameroon remain, the two most successful sides in nations cup history yet both are some odd surprise finalists. egypt had been absent since clinching a hat—trick of titles in 2010 as political revolution impacted upon the national team. translation: since we missed the last three tournaments we wanted to make a good impression and reach the final but we were not sure of it. we are one big family in the squad, ready to serve our country and win. at 44, el hadary, the oldest player in the tournament seeks a record fifth title. defeated by injuries and visibly tired in the semifinal egypt will be looking to salah for inspiration against a team has overcome various challenges. there has been a row over bonuses in gabon while ahead of the tournament at least seven of the players refused to honour call ups for various

egypt has gone through a difficult time. they are in the middle of a balance of payments crisis, yousef, and that rebalancing of the economy will take time to basically unwind. we are optimistic on egypt over the long-term, but i think it's too early to say they will outperform in 2017. if you look at the pmi numbers, companies on the ground are struggling. consumers are also struggling as well. and that's the largest part of the economy. from my perspective, when i look at egypt's outlook, one thing i am looking at our ebbs and flows. is happeningf what in saudi arabia's nonoil economy, particularly the weakness in employment growth, which is important for a lot of egyptians, that's going to be a onative outlook, i dragged egyptian growth through 2017. hopefully not 2018 though. tracy: another trend is geopolitical risk. we were just talking about the iranian missile test. we have trump's travel ban. they're all sorts of things going on. what impact will that have? take your pick. it's the middle east. geopolitical risk is

the rally you've seen in egypt is around 20% since the float. we are buyers of financials and industrials in that market. real incomes have been hit hard. if you look at the banks, you have about 30%. this is almost nonexistent in emerging market banks. for industrials they're coming back from a low base after years of low capacity utilization. we think there's more scope for the egyptian story for years to come should these reform momentum continue. >> when it comes to egypt, we're expecting an update from ftse, right? that could come when they're still concerned about the ability to get money out of the country. >> it's good you mentioned that. ftse came out last thursday night. they said they're removing restrictions imposed on egypt at the last year because the reports from clients is they've been able to repatriate money now. liquidity has improved since the float. that's the feedback we've been getting from investors as well. we think there's positive developments there as well. >> oh the other big story we're watching is the ongoing specu

if were our correspondent in egypt. if we think the obama administration did not handle egypt as well as it might, what will president trump do? i was there and it was one of his first big foreign policy speeches and did a lot in terms of healing after the iraq war. he spoke about freedom and democracy and of course two years later he embraced the arab spring. against the wishes of secretary of state hillary clinton who was much more circumspect about it. she could see when president mubarak was gone but was only the muslim brotherhood and mohammed morsi. morsi was then deposed and then in came this new strongman, president sisi. america learnt a lesson from that but it egypt is to peace and security in the east. you cannot apply shock therapy to a country like egypt without the more considered plan so many people will be hopping when donald trump looks towards egypt he goes back to what they were doing at the end of the mubarak era, exchanging money and aid for democratic and political reform. a big part of donald trum

egypt, i will say more about this in a moment, but egypt is likely to be the poster child of this focus on destroying isis and radical islamic extremism writ large and among non-arab countries in the region, turkey is the -- is returning to favor. we just saw a presidential telephone call with erdogan this week and we can see a renewal of that relationship where this issue, if you will excuse the term, trumps all the other issues on the agenda with these two countries, the domestic issues. that's point one. point two, second goal, get tough on iran. now, sometimes this is described as ripping up the iran nuclear agreement, sometimes described as enforcing the hell out of the agreement, quote unquote, but always defined as pushing back on iran's negative and aggressive behavior throughout the region. my own view is i think the debate about ripping up the agreement has essentially been settled and there are very few prominent voices for ripping up the agreement any longer. the debate is within the house you enforce the hell out of it and what is the connection between enforcing the hell o

saudi arabia and egypt, where the pilots on 9/11 came from. pakistan and afghanistan, two countries where extremist terrorism is deeply rooted and has been for a while. isn't there a strong argument this order in fact completely misses some of the most dangerous countries, and if anything could serve as a propaganda for recruiting jihadists? rieke: i think there is a good point saying saudi arabia is a close ally to the u.s.. you don't want to mess with that because it is an important player in that region. there are also economic reasons why mr. trump chose to include certain countries into this band. course, i don't know what he thinks if that was the reason behind it. clearlye serially -- some questions to be asked. melinda: what you make of these rather glaring exceptions? you told us why you think saudi arabia is off the list. egypt? pakistan? alan: are you saying come up with them on the list? are you saying he is not doing enough? melinda: i am asking you, is this ineffective order? naming the seven countries that happen to be those wor

the indomitable lions came from behind to beat egypt 2—1 in the final in gabon. it all began just over three weeks ago. 0ur reporter piers edwards looks back over the tournament's highs and lows. africa's most colourful characters and finest footballers came to gabon. any dessau did well in their debut, as did uganda. hopefully we can come back. early on, shock exits for the favourite algeria and defending champions ivory coast, beaten by morocco, and the man who led them to their 2015 title. meanwhile, gabon became only the fourth host to fail to reach the knockout stage. if we had all of the patients, hospitals and whatever, i feel even if we lost the game people would have been happy. some protested again the cost of hosting the cup for the second time in just five years. one example this new stadium 15 kilometres out of town, seemingly a white elephant amid a ra i nfo rest. seemingly a white elephant amid a rainforest. we don't really know what we are going to do with the stadium after the game because no one can get there. and this pitch was also an issue. t
