Aid recipient thumbs its nose at us
Egypt agreed to normalize relations with Israel as part of its peace treaty with Israel which gave them the Sinai. The agreement and follow up US aid (billions) was conditioned upon this normalization.This included the exchange of Ambassadors. Egypt withdrew its Ambassador years ago and permits arms smuggling to terrorists, and now blatantly thumbs its nose at the peace agreement by actually attending a forum designed to prevent normalization with Israel.
