Egyptian newspapers have been covering a range of international issues, including the declining popularity of US President Donald Trump, the visit of Chinese President Xi Jinping to the US, and the renewed conflict in Ethiopia. According to a report by Al-Masry Al-Youm, Trump's popularity has been on the decline due to the ongoing conflict with Iran. The report cited a recent poll by Reuters and Ipsos, which showed that Trump's approval rating had dropped to 32%, the lowest level since he took office.
The decline in Trump's popularity has been attributed to various factors, including the ongoing conflict with Iran and concerns about the economy. According to Alec Tyson, a senior vice president at Ipsos Public Affairs, Trump's approval ratings have been declining since the conflict with Iran began. Tyson noted that Trump's support among Republicans has also been declining, with a 9% drop in approval ratings among Republicans in just one week.
The conflict with Iran has been a major factor in Trump's declining popularity. The war has led to rising fuel prices and concerns about the economy, which have contributed to Trump's declining approval ratings. According to a poll by Quinnipiac University, 56% of Republicans approve of Trump's handling of the economy, a 24-point drop from January.
The visit of Chinese President Xi Jinping to the US has also been a major topic of discussion in Egyptian newspapers. According to a report by CNN, Xi's visit was marked by a lavish welcome from Trump, including a state dinner and a tour of the National Archives. However, the visit did not result in any significant agreements or concessions from China.
The Chinese government has been critical of Trump's approach to trade negotiations, and has accused the US of being too aggressive. According to Scott Kennedy, a senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, the Chinese see Trump's friendly approach as a sign of weakness.
The renewed conflict in Ethiopia has also been a major topic of discussion in Egyptian newspapers. According to a report by Euro News, the conflict has led to concerns about the stability of the region and the potential for a wider conflict. The conflict has already resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people and has displaced millions.
The Ethiopian government has been engaged in a conflict with the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) since 2020. The conflict has led to a humanitarian crisis, with thousands of people killed and millions displaced. The international community has been calling for a ceasefire and negotiations to resolve the conflict.
