Member of the House of Deputies, the Chairman of the
Center for Middle East Studies in Paris (CEMO) and the Board Chairman of
al-Bawaba News Abdel Rahim Ali said that his nomination to the Egyptian
parliament came as independent.
He also confirmed at a seminar on human rights in
French capital Paris that he is the first member to have won the success rate
of 78% of the vote in the most prestigious elections in Egypt’s history.
Titled "Human Rights at the Time of War on
Terrorism and Social Crises: Between Idealism and Realism", the seminar is
moderated by Ahmed Youssef, CEMO's executive director.
Speaking at the seminar – apart from Ali – will be

the Napoleon Foundation.
Gilbert Sinuet, a French journalist and writer who
accompanied French President Emmanuel Macaron during his latest visit to Egypt,

National Institute for Studies and Research of the Islamic and Arab Worlds.
