Egypt gives Saudi Arabia 2 islands in a show of gratitude - President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi had made a humiliating concession to a wealthy ally?

Egypt.

"Egypt’s cabinet announced on Saturday that it was transferring sovereignty of Tiran and Sanafir, arid and uninhabited islands at the mouth of the Gulf of Aqaba, to Saudi Arabia. --- The announcement elicited vivid protests from Egyptians who have for decades considered the islands to be Egyptian land. And it set off a debate over whether President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi had made a humiliating concession to a wealthy ally."
