US waives rights conditions on $320M Egypt aid
x/marco-rubio
— Oct 1, 2026

The funds are part of the roughly $1.3 billion in annual U.S. assistance to Egypt, and the decision has renewed the tension between Washington’s strategic partnership with Cairo and concerns over Egypt’s human-rights record.
