"I know that there has been a request for a positive resolution: my hope is that there has been a request from the Italian government to put an end to my 'travel ban' (the ban on expatriation)", so Patrick Zaki interviewed. from Corriere della sera, on the meeting between Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and the Egyptian President, General Abdel Fattah Al Sisi.
And this "for me but also for the activists of my NGO, the Eipr, including Hossam Bahgat, the director, also accused of spreading false news".
It would be a big step forward not only for us but also for all the Egyptian activists still in prison, he commented.
All Italians are with me
"Furthermore - added Zaki - it seems to me an excellent sign that several governments in Rome have supported me: it means that all Italians are with me".

Even the University of Bologna has been of enormous support, the activists, everyone
".
