President Sisi, One Year On
President Abdel Fatah El Sisi came to power under complicated circumstances which posed different challenges to his rule.
In this episode of In focus, we have taken a closer look at the highlights of his one year in power and the policies that shape the current Egyptian landscape.
Following the military-backed ouster of Egypt's first democratically elected president Mohamed Morsi, the Egyptian government undertook an oppressive strategy against all its political opponents, most notably the Muslim Brotherhood, the organization which Morsi hails from.
Since President Sisi took power, the security apparatus used excessive force against street demonstrations led by the Muslim Brotherhood. This lethal force has led to the deaths of thousands of protesters.
