U.S. waived congressional restriction on Egypt aid
U.S. waived congressional restriction on Egypt aid
Congress had withheld the sum until the administration certified Egypt had done enough to protect the independence of the judiciary, curb police abuses and put a stop to arms smuggling from Egypt to Gaza.

But it also gave the administration an option to waive the restrictions "in the national security interest of the United States". picked by ZebraHDH 8 months ago
