An informed Egyptian source welcomed the US State Department\u2019s request to Congress to release the US$ 320 million portion of annual military aid to Egypt that had previously been withheld.<\/span><\/p>\n

Responding to foreign media reports, the source confirmed that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio<\/a> had sent an official notification to Congress seeking a waiver regarding the suspension and requesting authorization to disburse the withheld funds.<\/span><\/p>\n

The source emphasized that this move reflects the depth of the strategic relationship between Cairo and Washington and reaffirms the pivotal diplomatic role Egypt plays in the region.<\/span><\/p>\n

These developments are occurring under a framework of ongoing coordination between the two nations to bolster regional security and stability, underscoring their enduring military and security partnership.<\/span><\/p>\n
