The Foreign Ministry, which was to meet the delegation to discuss prospects for peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians, said in a statement, \u201c<strong>Egypt sees this measure as reflecting poor judgment of the strategic relationship that ties the two countries over long decades<\/strong> and as adopting a view that lacks an accurate understanding of the importance of supporting Egypt\u2019s stability.\u201d Kushner met with President Abdel Fattah El Sisi and then later touched based with Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The order to hold back aid to Egypt came from the very top. <\/strong>The decision was approved by President Donald Trump and is being pushed through by Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who US media say called Shoukry on Tuesday to tell him of the decision.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is this all because of North Korea? <\/strong>The aid decision took both policy makers in Cairo and foreign analysts by surprise, particularly in view of the warm rapport between Trump and El Sisi. With the Trump administration having paid only lip service to human rights issues \u2014 other than having rather \u201cactively\u201d spirited Aya Hijazi out of Egypt \u2014 the New York Times kicked off speculation that this is part of a bid to pressure Egypt to cut ties with the DPRK. It\u2019s a notion that rings fairly true to us. We have full coverage this morning in Speed Round, below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More platitudes from the UK on restoring flights to Sharm, but at least the head of ICAO likes us: <\/strong>Britain\u2019s ambassador to Egypt John Casson offered more of the on restoring flights to Sharm El Sheikh at a dinner with the press on Wednesday. Progress was made in talks between Egyptian and British officials on the issue, Casson said, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.almasryalyoum.com\/news\/details\/1181251\">according to AMAY<\/a>. When will the birds fly? Somewhere between \u201cfollowing Brexit\u201d and \u201con the third blue moon from Tuesday.\u201d (Quotes ours, not Mr. Casson\u2019s.) Meanwhile, International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) boss Bernard Eliot lauded Sharm El Sheikh as an attractive destination for global tourism while touring the city, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.egyptindependent.com\/global-tourism-to-rise-up-in-sahrm-al-sheikh-icao\/\">Al Masry Al Youm reports<\/a>.
