State of Current Political Affairs in Egypt
April 30, 2013, Tamara Cofman Wittes
Tamara Wittes speaks to CBC Egypt on the state of current political affairs and policy choices in Egypt. Wittes expresses concern over Egypt’s failure to create an inclusive government, and the way in which its new constitution, a foundation for the democratic system, was created. But, Wittes stresses that it is not too late for change and urges Egypt’s leadership to embrace compromise as “politics is the art of the deal.”
