Following concerns about shadows by local security authorities at the world climate conference in Egypt, the German embassy complained to the hosts. The German news agency found out on Sunday in the margins of the conference. Egyptian guards are said to have observed and filmed the events at the German pavilion. The embassy then complained and asked the Egyptian authorities to stop these measures.
The conference took place in the German pavilion in recent days Events on the human rights situation in Egypt instead, which critics describe as devastating. Among those in attendance were the heads of Human Rights Watch (HRW) and Amnesty International, Tirana Hassan and Agnès Callamard, as well as the well-known Egyptian activist Sana Saifi.
HRW and Amnesty have no offices in Egypt, just days ago a blockade of HRW’s website was lifted in the country after a year-long ban. During his visit early this week, Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) called for the release of imprisoned Egyptian democracy activist Alaa Abdel Fattah. Fattah has been in prison for years and is currently on a hunger strike.
