Egyptian President warns against dangers of protesting

 

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi warned about the dangers of protesting, in the wake of widespread demonstrations in Algeria and neighbouring Sudan.

Sisi,said protesters elsewhere were ruining their countries.

The president fell short of naming the countries, although neighbouring Sudan has since December seen regular demonstrations against longtime ruler Omar al-Bashir whilst Algeria, tens of thousands of people have rallied in recent weeks against ailing President Abdelaziz Bouteflika’s bid for a fifth term in office.

The president has repeatedly criticised the Arab Spring uprisings of 2011, which in Egypt ended the rule of autocrat Hosni Mubarak.
