The workers at Cairo University put the final touch to the preparations for the visit of the US president Barak Obama's. However, the Egyptian flag at the top of the entrance is still 'torn'.
The flag appears to be at halved. It is mast between the university and the Ministry of Higher Education flags and one of its ends is tied to the 'flagpole'.
The area surrounding the hall at the republican entrance is being paved by the university and Giza province while the other side in front of the supreme Council of universities is kept in its old conditions.
The university has increased the security restrictions on entry and exit.
The security members are gathered at all the entrances and the exits leading to the hall around which there is more than one security point. In addition, they have closed the main door and placed a police car in front of it.
Al-Masry Al-Youm received information in regards to the presidency being the only body who can organize any aspect of the visit when concerned with the invitations and meeting attendance.
Including to the extent that the chairman of the president, Dr.Hossam Kamel, will not be allowed to enter the hall, where the speech will be delivered, if he does not have an official invitation.
On his side, the spokesman of the US state secretary, Ian Kelly, refused to answer the journalists' questions about an Egyptian human rights activist who met the US secretary of state, Hillary Clinton.
Ian Kelly did answer a question during a press conference in Washington yesterday saying; "I do not have information about this meeting."
He even refused to state the identity of the human right activist who met Clinton and he did not make it clear whether this meeting can be an indication that the US president will discuss, during his visit to Cairo, the issue of human rights with President Mubarak or not.
