Why has Biden come to Egypt’s rescue despite snubbing the US?

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi embarrassed the United States, yet the Biden-Harris administration still rewarded him for his actions.

According to a report by the National Interest, Egypt decided to replace its US F-16 fighter jets with Chinese J-10C fighter jets instead of accepting the offer to upgrade their existing fleet. This surprising move by Egypt seemed illogical considering its financial struggles just a year ago.

In the past, the US might have suspended Egypt’s annual $1.3 billion military aid in response to such behavior, but the State Department decided to hand over the entire sum without any conditions. This decision comes after years of withholding aid due to Egypt’s poor human rights record.

The Biden-Harris administration’s strange actions have left some questioning the US’s stance on Egypt’s ties with China and its behavior towards Israel and the US. Despite Egypt’s actions and threats against Israel, the administration chose to reward Egypt with military assistance, sending a confusing message to all involved.
