News week 4 by Sigbjørn and Kristian

Last week there was a lot of protests going on in Tunisia, which spread to Egypt, and have been one of the top news this week. It is said that the government did not keep their promises, and because of this the protests started in the streets. The government in Tunisia did answer the protestants call, but in Egypt, this has not yet happened.

On Tuesday this week, four demonstrators were killed in Cairo. The demonstrators want a departure of the interior minister, they want a rise in the minimum wage and an end to the restrictive emergency law. The main organising force is the youth people, and they have said to not stop until the demands of the Egyptian people have been met.
