Egypt sees Clinton remarks as 'interference'

None

The Egyptian foreign minister said that Egypt won't accept any interference in its internal affairs, in response to criticism by US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the way security forces dealt with women protesters.

 

"Egypt does not accept any interference in its internal affairs and conducts communications and clarifications concerning statements made by foreign officials," the state news agency quoted Foreign Minister Mohame d Kamel Amr as saying. In a speech on Monday, Clinton criticised the actions of Egyptian security forces as showing the "systematic degradation" of women. (Reuters)
