Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi says his presidential term will end in 2030 and that he will not amend the constitution to extend his time in power.

Political observers say the role of military institutions in Egypt’s power structure and the selection of future leaders remain important issues in assessing the country’s political outlook.
