Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN) – Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi warned that his country might witness unrest lasting for weeks by “100,000 people in difficult circumstances” in exchange for these people receiving money and narcotic substances, according to his statements on Sunday.

Al-Sisi added, on the sidelines of a conference extending over several days in the New Administrative Capital: “I was speaking to the gentlemen (members) of the Supreme Judicial Council in the morning and I told them, ‘Imagine, I might gift Egypt with 2 billion pounds,’ and they were very surprised. I told them to give me a package (banjo drug) and 20.” One pound and a strip of Tramadol for 100,000 people in difficult circumstances. Put him down to make a case.” He means unrest.

He went on to say: “I will not give him twenty pounds, the world has boiled (prices have risen), I will give him a thousand pounds, give him 10 weeks (to demonstrate), which costs a million every week for 10 weeks, that is, a billion pounds… I will give him a country in which there are 100 million or 105 A million to a billion pounds, meaning 30 million dollars, there are people who spend their money at a party.”

He continued: “So when I come to pay 85 billion to the family who does not feel like they are living while people are thrown into tinfoils in the streets and in cemeteries, someone tells you that the country that cannot afford to eat will provide them with an apartment as well? Of course, if we all understood what national security means, you would not disdain what we are.” We do this and more of it.. We are tired of this and are we not able to do this? Yes, so that you do not have a loophole that can be used in modern war systems to destroy countries.”

The Egyptian President said: “No one will attack you directly from the outside because this has very huge and very costly consequences, not only militarily and financially, even from the perspective of international law and the existing global order… People are standing with you, your country is moving (that is, in a state of demonstration or unrest).”

What the Egyptian President said came as part of a series of controversial statements he made on the sidelines of the “Story of a Homeland” conference, the most prominent of which was when he said on Saturday that Egyptians have a chance for change in the upcoming presidential elections scheduled for next December.

Al-Sisi responded to the criticism directed at his government’s projects, saying: “If the price of progress and prosperity for the nation is that we do not eat and do not drink, we will not eat and do not drink… If effort, development and progress are the price of hunger and deprivation, be aware, O Egyptians who are not advanced, and be aware, O Egyptians, and say we eat better.”

The Egyptian President said that there is a “state of mistrust” among Egyptians regarding the projects his government is implementing, explaining: “There are trumpets of lies, slander, and active rumors that slander every measure and course you take… You are not appreciated for what you do for their sake, neither do you.” By doing this, you will be offended and your officials and their families will be offended.”

Egypt is witnessing an economic crisis that has left additional burdens on Egyptians, as well as high prices, inflation, and deteriorating living conditions, coinciding with the Egyptian pound losing more than half of its value once morest the dollar during the past 18 months, and the country’s foreign currency reserves decreasing. At a time when the government blames the repercussions of the Corona virus crisis and the Russian war in Ukraine, as it is the largest importer of grains in the world, and obtains its supplies from Russia and Eastern Europe.
