Ali Sabri
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ali Sabri (Arabic: علي صبري) (born 1920- died August 3, 1991) was an Egyptian politician.
He was Prime Minister of Egypt from September 1962 to October 1965.
When Gamal Nasser died in 1970, Anwar Sadat was regarded as Nasser's most likely successor, but Sabri was regarded as the next most likely. Both Sadat and Sabri had heart attacks which they survived at Nasser's funeral.
Sabri was the vice-president and regarded as the no. 2 figure in Sadat's government. However shortly after Sadat came to power he was the most notable casualty of Sadat's "Corrective Revolution", and was imprisoned.
