Why Egypt Never Seems To Get Rich? A Nation Trapped

For decades, Egypt has remained caught in a cycle of debt, inflation, currency devaluations, and economic hardship despite possessing some of the world's greatest strategic advantages. From the Suez Canal and the Pyramids to natural gas discoveries and a strategic location connecting three continents, Egypt appears to have everything needed to become an economic powerhouse. So why do millions of Egyptians still struggle? In this documentary, we examine the historical roots of Egypt's economy, the rise of public debt, corruption, crony capitalism, classism, foreign influence, IMF reforms, and the geopolitical realities that continue to shape one of the Middle East's most important countries. This video presents multiple perspectives supported by historical research and economic analysis to better understand one of the most important questions facing modern Egypt.
