Egypt: "The US is not respecting our sovereignty ... and listening to 'chaos-spreading' experts"

Via Friday-Lunch-Club

"Egypt has accused the United States of meddling in its internal affairs, after Washington called for international monitors to observe the country's upcoming parliamentary elections. In a strongly worded statement, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry said Thursday the U.S. is acting like an "overseer" and not respecting the country's sovereignty. Cairo expressed dismay about a November 2 meeting in Washington between U.S. President Barack Obama's national security advisors and a group of American foreign policy analysts pushing for political reform in Egypt.  The Foreign Ministry described the bipartisan Egypt Working Group as aiming to "spread chaos in the Middle East."
