US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Friday gave the green light to US military aid to Egypt, dpa reported. Clinton waived conditions placed on the 1.3-billion-dollars of aid by Congress - that had insisted Egypt meet certain democratic reforms before being granted the funds - saying the move was in the United States' national interest. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland pointed in a statement to the progress made in elections, but said the US remained concerned about protection for non-governmental organizations and other issues.
