TIMEP long recognized that, to fulfill our mission of fostering transparent, accountable, and just societies, we had to advance inclusive economic policies. That work grew into the Inclusive Economies Program. Please visit the program's page to learn about the critical work we're doing.
Must read by @husseinbaoumi.bsky.social. He explains how Egypt is striking a precarious balance amidst the US-Israeli war with Iran, growing competition between regional powers, and domestic economic weakness & dependency. Addressing domestic fragility is key to reducing external vulnerability.

The one thing about the Strait of Hormuz is it is in fact a wasting asset
Gulf states are about to pour so much money into pipelines and air defenses and the renewable energy push is gonna keep going
US may not be a threat by the time it matters, but that button is only gonna get weaker
