Sisi, who has held power for over a decade and was re-elected with 89.6% of the vote, will officially start his term on Wednesday. His presidency, which follows his role in the ouster of former president Mohamed Morsi, is expected to last six years, in accordance with the constitution.

Following his inauguration, a government reshuffle is anticipated. Sisi's latest term begins amidst a severe economic crisis, but recent foreign investments, including significant funds from the UAE and an increased IMF loan, could potentially aid recovery. However, experts remain cautious, emphasizing the need for substantial economic reforms.
