Who's On First? U.S. State Department corrects Obama: Egypt IS an ally, after all.


U.S. State Department corrects Barack Obama: Egypt IS an American ally, Mr President

Egypt, along with Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Israel, has long been considered an American ally in the Middle East.
Egypt was designated as 'Major Non-NATO Ally' in 1989 when the U.S. Congress first passed a law creating that status. The status gives Egypt special privileges in cooperating with the United States, especially in the security and technology arenas.
