Kerry visits Egypt for leader talks
US Secretary of State John Kerry has made the highest-level American visit to Egypt since President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi took office as Washington presses the former army chief to adopt more moderate policies.
Economic and security problems are undermining Egypt’s stability, and Mr Kerry’s visit signals an attempt by the Obama administration to thaw a relationship with a long-time Mid East ally that has cooled in recent years during the country’s political turmoil.
