Yes...I can see the rationale of teaching economics and, particularly, politics in today’s Egypt.


Egypt’s Ambassador to Britain Tareq Adel attended the signing ceremony on Tuesday of a deal with the University of London to establish a branch of the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) in the New Administrative Capital (NAC).

Oops...as you were

Egypt’s Ambassador to the United Kingdom Tareq Adel reportedly attended the signing ceremony on Tuesday September 10th of a deal with the University of London. According to a Facebook statement by Egypt’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs at the time, the agreement would see the London School of Economics (LSE) establish a branch in the New Administrative Capital (NAC), however, LSE issued a statement on Friday September 13th via Twitter refuting the reports. The Egyptian government has yet to issue a clarifying statement.

“LSE is not opening a branch in Egypt. The reports refer to an agreement between the European University in Egypt (EUE) and the University of London. The EUE is now recognized to teach some degrees which are offered by the Univeristy of London,” the statement reads.
