6 years after protests, Sisi says Egypt 'on right track'

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said on Wednesday (January 25th) that Egypt was "on the right track" six years after the uprising that overthrew former president Hosni Mubarak, AFP reported.

Speaking in a televised address commemorating the January 25 revolution, al-Sisi called on young activists who took part in mass protests in 2011 to work for the country's future.

"An objective assessment of developments in Egypt in recent years makes clear that we are moving on the right track," al-Sisi said.

Addressing young people who took part in the protests, al-Sisi said Egypt needed their "efforts" to continue on the "road of reform, construction and development".

January 25 marks the anniversary of the day in 2011 when protesters began to gather in Cairo's Tahrir Square demanding an end to president Mubarak's 30-year rule.
