Egypt is an authoritarian state under Sisi and recently froze the assets of 3 Rights activists. The UK and EU expressed concern. Egypt told them to "mind their own business" .
Even though the US wasn't mentioned, the US is part of the Western block and very close to the UK on most matters. Since Egypt can't stand being called out by major Western powers, the West should stop all aid to them and quit protecting the Sisi regime diplomatically. After Israel, Egypt gets the most foreign aid.
