Rubio: Trump Should Be Congratulated for Obtaining Release of Aid Worker from Egypt

‘It sounds and it looks like the president raised the issue privately through back channels and in their meetings’

EXCERPT:

RUBIO: "Well, look, Egypt is an important country in that region, and we need them to be successful on multiple fronts. My concern with Egypt has been that particular case of Aya Hijazi where she was released. She was an aid worker. She had been improperly imprisoned and should have been released a long time ago. Now, it sounds and it looks like the President raised the issue privately through back channels and in their meetings, and it ended in a positive result. And he should be congratulated for that."
