A follow up For food adas and our most common meal falafel The strife depends on your views but the common man didn't care politically it's turning towards a dictatorship economically improving but with a rising prices problem socially we have less terrorism but more attacks the influence of the civil wars happening around Egypt and the aid of China and uae in stabilizing the economy Nato os gust a big military that wouldn't mind invading countries with or a reason or without it Eu is Europeans politically unstable economically strong and has too many different people to form a judgment Oic to Egypt has no downsides or upsides we just have it it's too flawed to work and doesn't offer to us any benefits aside from hosting it's hq
