Report: U.S. to Scale Back Egypt Military Aid

HeadlineOct 09, 2013

The White House is reportedly preparing to announce new cuts to U.S. aid for Egypt’s military government. According to The Washington Post, the United States will apparently withhold a shipment of a dozen Apache helicopters. But shipments of spare parts for military equipment and the training of Egyptian forces will likely continue. The United States has avoided the automatic suspension of military aid to Egypt by refusing to deem Mohamed Morsi’s ouster a coup.
