10 years from Egypt's “Arab Spring” A situation of reverting to a powerful system

It's been 25 days and 10 years since a large-scale democratization demonstration called "Arab Spring" began in Egypt in the Middle East.

Although the dictatorship collapsed due to the demonstrations, in Egypt, the government that was born after a de facto coup d'etat by the military has tightened its tightening on critical forces, and it is in a situation where it reverts to a powerful system again. ..

In Egypt, 10 years ago, on January 25, a large-scale demonstration began in the form of a spillover democratization movement called the "Arab Spring," and Mubarak, who had laid down a dictatorial regime for 30 years. The administration was forced into collapse.

After that, the president was elected in the first democratic election, but was expelled in a de facto military coup in 2013, and now the head of the army, Mr. Shishi, is president.

The Shishi administration has been tightening with powerful methods such as arresting critical activists one after another, and the Tahrir Square in Cairo, which was the center of the demonstration, is on the alert by the police before the turning point of 10 years. I'm laying it down.

The Shishi administration, which puts the highest priority on security stability, is pushing ahead with the rebuilding of the country, while tightening Internet regulations, strengthening speech control, and forcing a revision of the constitution that enables a long-term administration. The situation is reverting to a powerful system.

For this reason, human rights groups in Japan and overseas have raised concerns that they are going against democratization.

Citizens also complain about the progress of democratization

Ten years have passed since the democratization movement, and in Cairo, Shishi has stabilized security by saying, "President Shishi has actually achieved what he could not do in many years. He is able to live very safely." While there are positive opinions from the administration, some say, "Economic development is remarkable, but what we have now is not the democracy that we asked for at the time of the demonstration," and some complained about the progress of democratization. It was done.

In addition, regarding the strict crackdown of the Shishi administration, which is also criticized for suppressing speech, there are voices who understand that "endless freedom is no longer freedom but confusion. I think regulation is necessary", while "freedom of expression" I can't speak. If I speak, I'll be punished, "some people were frightened by the regulation.
