kuwait are promising $4 billion with saudi arabia and united arab emirates, can he really attract the kind of foreign investment that is necessary to bring egypt's economy back and create the secure egypt that the rest of the world would like to see? >> well the challenges are no doubt obvious than will not be a black and white success or failure. the government has put upwards of $60 billion of things it wants to see funded over the next few years. that is ambitious but the government is hoping through the economic conference that other economies and governments in the world beyond saudi arabia, uae and kuwait, that others will begin investing and help rebuild infrastructure. >> what about the united states? what is the role that the u.s. should play or do you think will play? >> well, i think the fact that secretary kerry went was you know a high level signal. the u.s. and egypt are also supposed to start a strategic dialogue. that was agreed between presidents obama and sisi back in september to discuss their long term strategic and military relationships. there is no doubt they ha
