If you want to judge the performance of the Egyptian people by the standards of German or Chinese or American culture, then there is no room for judgment.
When the Egyptians decide something, probably it is not appropriate for the U.S. When the Americans decide something, this, of course, is not appropriate for Egypt.
When I say, 'I am supporting the police or the army,' I am talking about the army in general and the police in general. In general, those institutions are good institutions.
Egyptians are always and will always be supportive of their Palestinian brothers, all Palestinians.
The revolutions of the Arab Spring happened because people realized they were the power.
We Egyptians reject any kind of assault or insult against our prophet.
Egypt now is a real civil state. It is not theocratic, it is not military. It is democratic, free, constitutional, lawful and modern.
The most important thing for me is to have real friendship between Egyptians and Americans.
I know about technology, about research, scientific applications, culture, civilization, differences between nations of the world, the nature of history.
If there is a spot where you have dictatorship, where people are not free, people are not satisfied, they do not find food and shelter, they are under the poverty level, this is a dangerous spot for the whole world, because those people will move, and they will move to different places. They will be carrying bad feelings towards others.
I will treat everyone equally and be a servant of the Egyptian people.
The president of the Arab Republic of Egypt is the commander of the armed forces, full stop.
A death sentence will be issued, a death sentence will be implemented. A life sentence will be issued, a life sentence will be implemented.
The world is not uni-cultural. We must live together rather than seeking to dominate each other. The people in the world cannot accept domination anymore.
