“The U.S. assistance to Egypt is part of a strategic partnership that serves both countries enormously. It’s a win/win situation. So, basically, we would like it to continue to be a win/win situation, particularly since we agree on the objective. We have the same objective. We want to see a democratic system in place in Egypt. We do not want to see Christians attacked, nuns being treated like they’re prisoners of wars, churches burned down, museums — museums — being attacked. We don’t want to see this. We want to have a flourishing country, a democracy, a country where every individual can feel free, can have human dignity. This is what we’re working towards.”
