Seems the Egyptians are being presssed on all sides. Libya with Turks backing them.
The Turks chased out the Russians, and are also pitted against Libyans. Egypt's main problem for years has been jihadist activity supported from outside the country. Since the head of the Iranian worldwide terror got capped (thank you, President Trump), **** in the Sinai and Egypt proper has settled down some. And al-Sisi doesn't get intimidated worth a damn.
