Fikri Al-Jazzar Debates Nasser on National Pact
Fikri El-Gazar was a deputy representing the farmers in Egypt. He came to prominence in 1962 during the discussion of the "National Labor Charter" draft, expressing the concerns of farmers and agricultural issues, and warning against loopholes in legislation that could be exploited by large landowners. He called for making the law clear to prevent exploitation and urged for an "agricultural revolution" that keeps pace with industrial development, focusing on rural development and improving the lives of farmers. In his speeches, he was clearly voicing the simple farmers' perspective and confronted President Nasser in a straightforward manner, which made him a symbol of a politician who entered Parliament with his rural authenticity. His name became associated with the nickname "The Eloquent Farmer," and he was known for his honesty and boldness in political debates. He remained a memorable figure until his death before the 2011 revolution.
