The US has announced it will not deliver four F-16 fighter jets to Egypt, as political instability continues to bring unrest to the country.
"Given the current situation in Egypt we do not believe it is appropriate to move forward at this time with the delivery of F-16s," Pentagon spokesperson George Little told reporters.
"We remain committed to the US-Egypt defence relationship as it remains a foundation of our broader strategic partnership with Egypt and serves as a pillar of regional stability," he said.
The US is currently assessing, whether the overthrowing of President Mohammad Morsi by the military was a coup. Recognition of a coup would mean all aid would have to be suspended.
