"Madam President, the High Representative indicated yesterday afternoon, in the Committee on Foreign Affairs, that he wanted to offer concrete support to what we have begun to refer to as ‘the new Egypt’ in addressing the large-scale housing shortage. Anyone who is remotely aware of the enormous socio-economic misery in which the vast majority of the Egyptian people find themselves can no longer remain euphoric. This is about showing genuine European empathy.
For that reason, I warmly welcome all European efforts to improve living conditions in Egypt. Certainly now that the country is going through an uncertain transition after the departure of President Mubarak and now that Cairo seems to be heading straight towards a financial and food crisis. In my opinion, European aid to Egypt should be accompanied by redoubled efforts on the part of the Council.
In the new Egypt, all citizens, irrespective of their religion, must be equal before the law, with equal rights for all. Moreover, Cairo needs to observe the peace treaty with Israel and even develop it further. If we set those two conditions, both the internal and external stability of the new Egypt would be strengthened."@en1
