New VP: Egypt will maintain Israel peace treaty
2011-02-06
[Ma'an] Egypt will remain a strong ally of Israel and uphold their peace agreement in the aftermath of an unprecedented uprising calling for the ouster of the regime in Cairo, Egypt's new vice president says.

"Yes we will have a peace agreement," Vice President Omar Suleiman said in an interview with the US broadcaster ABC News that aired Friday. "We will keep it firmly and not violate it at all."

Asked about conversations with American officials, Suleiman said US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
... sometimes described as the Smartest Woman in the World and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another John Foster Dulles ...

"didn't ask that President Mubarak step down now.

"But I told her it was a process, and at the end of it, President Mubarak will leave."

He added: "No, Egypt will not be anything like Tunisia," he said. "This is different. You know that our president is a fighter. He lived on this soil and he will die on this soil."
