Obama Orders Review of US Aid to Egypt -- Voice of America
WHITE HOUSE — President Barack Obama is ordering a review of U.S. aid to Egypt, where the military Wednesday ousted democratically elected President Mohammed Morsi. Obama is calling for a return to democracy as soon as possible.
In a written statement, President Obama said he is “deeply concerned” about the Egyptian military’s decision to remove President Morsi and suspend the nation’s constitution. He stopped short of calling the move a "coup d’etat."
