Khaled Ali not to run for presidency

Egyptian labor rights lawyer and former presidential contender Khaled Ali said in a press conference on Sunday that he will not run for presidency.

“I will not take part in this charade,” Ali said, urging the army to stay away from politics and power.

Egypt is expecting a presidential election in the first half of this year.

“Revolutionaries, free, we will continue our journey!” Activists chanted at Sunday’s conference.
