The Biden administration set an incredibly low bar for Egypt to clear -- far lower than Congress intended -- to receive The Biden administration full military aid, at the same time, we now know that pressure works when our rhetoric has teeth. The fact that any progress was made on prisoner releases is only because The Biden administration held firmly to The Biden administration conditions, and we should insist that doing so is the only path forward in relations with Egypt.

I think its more likely to close if it doesnt become a huge press issue.
