- description: President Donald Trump is welcoming Egypt's President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi (AHB'-del fat-AH' el-SEE'-see) to the White House. The Egyptian president arrived Monday morning. Trump greeted him with a handshake before the pair headed inside. Topics el-Sissi may broach with the new president include military aid for the country. Trump has repeatedly mentioned Egypt as one of the Muslim-majority allies that the U.S. should maintain its partnership with in the fight against extremists like the Islamic State group. The White House welcome comes after a tense relationship between Egypt's leader and the previous administration. Former President Barack Obama never invited el-Sissi to the White House and allowed his administration to repeatedly admonish his government over its human rights record. Obama also briefly suspended some U.S. military aid.
