us military assistance to egypt is going to be cut? >> well, i mean, currently the whole assistance is being reviewed by both sides, the united states and egypt. the objective of this review is to revisit how much each side gains from this. and i'm confident this will renew the commitment of both sides. and will lay the foundation for even stronger cooperation in the future. >> but if the aid is suspended or cancelled, will egypt reconsider the privileges that the us gets - access to suez, overflight? tawfik: again, this is not an issue we are discussing right now because we are confident that in the end, we will move forward together. >> egypt gets more us military aid than any country besides israel. what makes egypt so confident that the status quo isn't going to change? perhaps the answer is to be found with the lobbyists that egypt pays to represent their interests, here in dc. >> i saw egyptian, top egyptian generals put their finger in the face of u.s. congressmen and senators when they visited egypt and say "we do a hundred thi
