Amr Moussa: Egypt loses regional soft power
Amr Moussa, the former Egyptian minister and the former Secretary-General of the Arab League, confirmed that Egypt has lost part of its soft power influence, which played a central role in shaping Arab awareness for decades. He called for the restoration of Egypt’s stature in culture, education, and thought, considering that Egyptian soft power was the force that opened universities and sparked ideas in fields such as literature, music, and education, while establishing deep cultural and social ties with the region. He mentioned that Egypt was a hub for intellectual and artistic activity during the 1930s and 1940s and contributed to building strong cultural relations with its Arab surroundings. He added that with Egypt’s declining role, it is necessary to modernize tools of cultural influence. He emphasized that reclaiming this position requires prioritizing education, culture, and scientific research to rebuild society’s capacity for creativity and competitiveness. He pointed out that US influence depends on knowledge and culture, not just military power.
