CAIRO: Several Egyptian political parties have announced their unwavering support for President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi’s candidacy in the upcoming presidential elections, expressing their commitment to his leadership and the nation’s stability.

The Free Egyptians Party, a liberal political group founded by businessman Naguib Sawiris in 2011, has launched a campaign endorsing El-Sisi as their preferred candidate for the presidency. The party’s decision was prompted by numerous appeals from public and societal figures to back El-Sisi for a new term. The party’s leadership has assured that their campaign will prioritize national security and uphold the country’s symbols.

Another secularist political party, the Conference Party, has formed a committee to facilitate partisan procedures for El-Sisi’s candidacy. This effort involves close coordination with various political and national forces that support El-Sisi’s potential presidential bid.
