This balance is evident in his broad horizons and encyclopedic knowledge, to the point that I call him Mustafa Al-Fikr:
•
Dr. Mustafa is an avid reader and an encyclopedic intellectual, combining literature, history, and political thought.
• He has the ability to analyze complex issues in a clear manner that combines depth and simplicity.
• His diplomatic personality, which he acquired through his work in foreign policy and the presidential secretariat, shows his flexibility and ability to dialogue with different spectrums.
• He is known for his ability to bring viewpoints closer together and resolve differences wisely and calmly.
3. Moderation and openness:
• Dr. Mustafa is distinguished by his moderate positions that call for dialogue and openness, whether at the local or international level.
• He believes that solutions come from cooperation and mutual understanding, not from conflict or tension.
4. Loyalty to the homeland:
• Despite his preoccupation with intellectual and cultural issues, his primary interest remains serving Egypt and contributing to its progress.
• He balances between his role as an intellectual and thinker and his role as a patriot who seeks to achieve the public interest.
Dr. Mustafa has the ability to keep up with global and local political and cultural transformations, which makes him always present and inspiring in intellectual discussions.
In short, the key to Mustafa El-Feki’s personality is the ability to combine rationality and humanity, thought and action, and past and present, which makes him a symbol of enlightened reason and practical wisdom.
