The Arab world is going through many changes over the past few years. I expected that it was not a lot going for at least a few years ago. Tunisia, Egypt, after the fall of dictators in Libya long-established ruling Assad family in Syria is fighting for its survival. Tunisia gained the revolutionary Arab Spring, there are revolutionary government in any way. The revolution in Egypt and was then roll back, passing through the situation that arose after the revolution in Libya. Keep the Assad family in Syria and other countries on the question of who do not have to change their traditional position, The recent demonstration in the case of serious differences between the longtime allies like Saudi Arabia and Egypt. The immediate cause of the UN Security Council to support Egypt’s Russian resolution while Saudi Arabia was against the resolution. Salman bin Abdul Aziz Shah government is supporting the French resolutionwhich has demanded that Russia stop bombing in Aleppo (Syria). Saudi Arabia called the Egyptian painful decisions. Ways to separate the two countries, Syria is a major event on the international scene. As a result, the Saudi oil company Aramco was announced to the 7 million tonnes of petroleum product exports to Egypt this month. The decision of Aramco Egypt hastily tenders are to continue to meet its petroleum products. Egyptian Foreign Ministry says there are reasons to prevent Egypt from Aramco oil products and technical or commercial or something they do not know. The dispute between the two countries at a critical time when he is sitting on an $ 12 billion bail out agreement with the IMF. IM with F, including the terms of the agreement that Egypt would also reduce subsidies would reduce the value of its currency and fuel. Egypt is also required from 5 to US $ 6 billion in respect of loans to reform and is expected to receive money from the oil-rich Gulf allies it. The relationship between the Egyptian General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi regime and Saudi Arabia were deeper than the first day. After the military coup against President Mohammad Mursi from the Muslim Brotherhood General Sisi Saudi Arabia gave $ 5 billion, The common perception was that Saudi Arabia is the biggest supporter of the Egyptian junta. Recently, the Saudi TV channel alarybyh also admitted that Saudi Arabia, the country’s first elected President Mohammad Morsi support. Since then he has been going strongly supports President Sisi. Saudi Arabia has strong support in terms of billions of dollars in cash to Egypt and free or subsidized oil exports. All experts agree that the bloody crackdown support General Sisi Saudi Muslim Brotherhood no country in the world that has such efforts at the diplomatic level put pressure on the Egyptian military government. The Saudi ruler King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz had given statements against the Muslim Brotherhood. University lecturer Amanta associated Atlanta Arabic E Rogers believes that any movement of the Saudi monarchy not a democracy which came to power. It is said that after failing to stop the revolution Saudi Arabia’s role in the revolution was to back the plan to fully support the implementation of the Egyptian generals. After the collapse of the Brotherhood of the General Sisi they were forcing Western countries to restore democracy, There is a clear message to Arab countries not to interfere in the affairs of Egypt. King Abdullah said: The kingdom of Egypt is standing with all these powers are interfering in Egypt’s internal affairs. An hour after his speech at the Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal took off from Paris and then met with French President Francois Hollande, As a result, the host announces its support for the road map for the Egyptian generals. That time the European leaders were condemning the coup and calling for military generals responsible for the bloodshed in Egypt. In response, Prince Saud said in a statement that their objective (to cooperate) of Egypt by the European countries concerned by issuing threatening statements against the Egyptian generals. He had complained that the United States and other allies withdraw support of President Mubarak, he came to the streets of Egypt. It was time to open his sister’s government all the Egyptian generals that they were in their own country he opened his mouth filled sacks for the Saudi Riyal. Saudi Arabia supported the Egyptian generals was not alone, but the campaign, including Israel and the United Arab Emirates. It is an interesting fact that Saudi Arabia always check book diplomacy remained behind. It is a known fact that the quality of the Saudi riyal ruling provides for different purposes in this region. However, in the case of Saudi Arabia and Egypt have changed their standards. The General Saudi Arabia within a week to seize power Sisi announced a rescue package of $ 12 billion for Egypt, a draft note was handed to the military generals. The United Arab Emirates has contributed $ 3 billion to $ 4 billion, while Kuwait. The uprising in the Gulf region over the Egyptian generals had created a split. Qatar and Turkey were in favor of the Muslim Brotherhood. Saudi Arabia has been a further $ 4 billion in March 2015. Good relations between the two countries continued in some fashion until the early years of this. King Salman bin Abdul Aziz in April signed 36 agreements during his visit to Egypt under which Saudi Arabia was to invest $ 25 billion in Egypt. Several days before the visit, Egyptian Petroleum Co Salman Shah had a contract with the company Saudi Aramco is the world’s largest. The Saudi company in exchange for $ 23 billion in the next 5 years Petroleum promised to fulfill the requirements. Dr. Mohammad Morsi in Egypt after the government of Saudi Arabia believes that the Muslim Brotherhood rule would be dangerous to General Sisi’s strong leadership in Iran and Egypt will be helpful in countering the pro militias. Make sure that at least the last year, the General Sisi Saudi Arabia is the status of the red line in its foreign policy, the security of the Gulf states. However, Saudi Arabia to fight the Houthis in Yemen called for Egyptians to General Sisi did not send troops. Similarly, Saudi Arabia called for military cooperation with Egypt in Syria, General Sisi did not matter. In April 2016, when King Salman arrived in Egypt to end the differences between the two countries, General Sisi and two islands in the Red Sea to convince Saudi Arabia declared to Saudi Arabia. General Sisi wanted to maintain relations with its specific ways to Saudi Arabia the Russian Security Council resolution highlighting the differences between the two countries. Saudi Arabia considers that the presence of the Assad regime would strengthen Iran’s future in the region. That is why the government wants to eliminate Salman Shah regime in any case. But Egyptian Foreign Minister Shukri samh last month issued the statement after a meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister the objective of fighting in Syria, but Egypt would not end the Assad regime. Saudi Arabia is considered by the General lead after Egypt Egyptian media has been full year supply of oil of Saudi Arabia. Is an Egyptian TV anchor asked its citizens to leave to go to Mecca, Medina, Saudi Arabia for the pilgrimage to lose revenue. An analyst Ahmed Musa said no flour, oil, gas or even the dollar-based weapons can not put pressure on Egypt. Egypt has the ability to decide independently. Does not interfere in our affairs. We do not need any help from anyone. If a country wants to stop our aid to the custom. We are going to support. If you do not Egypt. Egypt is the Arab world’s survival survival. Another analyst said that Ibrahim Issa are Libya, Yemen, Iraq and Syria in some, The result of Saudi Arabia’s policies. It is happening in the Arab countries, are responsible for this. The question is, will temporarily increase resentment between Saudi Arabia and Egypt before this series? Although last week the General Sisi tried to improve relations with Saudi Arabia saying Saudi Arabia’s immense relief to Egypt since the overthrow of the president, Thanks to him, he said that could not spoil our mutual relations between the two countries on the Russian resolution. He demanded to restore fuel supply to Egypt by Aramco. The last General Sisi said while addressing a function Egypt, Egypt has adopted an independent policy towards the Arab nation’s security. Our position on the Syrian issue is fixed, it can not be changed. Egypt will not bow to anyone but God. For the past few months Egypt had begun to strengthen relations with Russia. $ 3.5 billion worth of weapons between the two countries was signed in September. Similarly, according to a second agreement will be credited to Egypt, Russia $ 25 billion, which will be established nuclear power plant. Both countries are also joint military exercises this month while Egypt hosts. It is estimated that Egypt was preparing to adopt a different way from Saudi Arabia a few months ago. Away from Egypt, Saudi Arabia and be a part of Russia, Iran alliance is a big decision. Its impact will be so deep. Egypt’s relations with Turkey as a country are cut off from the economic, Decided to leave Saudi Arabia will make him suffer severe isolation in the Arab world. As long maintain its current course of Egypt will be dangerous for him.
