It was another quiet night on the airwaves yesterday, with the talk shows focusing on US national security adviser Jake Sullivan’s meeting with President Abdel Fattah El Sisi yesterday.

Sullivan’s visit gives a kind of reassurance, especially in light of the recent US decision to partially withhold military aid over Egypt’s human rights record, political analyst and Senate member Abdel-Moneim Said said in a call with Sherif Amer on Yahduth Fi Masr (watch, runtime: 3:56 | 3:03). Said said that political dialogue between Egypt and the US is continually improving, suggesting that ongoing talks help Egypt clarify its efforts on the human rights front. Elsewhere, he said that the two countries shared similar views, particularly on the need for December elections in Libya and to a lesser extent on GERD. Assistant foreign minister Mohamed Hegazy was on Al Hayah Al Youm to discuss the implications of the meeting for the GERD dispute (watch, runtime: 5:24), and Ala Mas’ouleety had coverage of Sullivan’s visit (watch, runtime: 3:56 | 4:28).

Cabinet’s approval of amendments to the Traffic Act that would make it legal for 16-year-olds to ride e-bikes on city streets was covered by Rasha Magdy on Sada El Balad’s Salet El Tahrir (watch, runtime: 6:01). All motorbikes will require license plates under the amendment, said Gen. Yahya Kadwani, a member of parliament’s defense and national security committee, adding that the bill will be discussed at the start of the next parliamentary session, which kicks off this coming Saturday.
