The sooner we put Egypt on the right track, the sooner we would be able to have an Egypt that is modern, that is moderate, and that is acting as a beacon for freedom and liberty across the Arab world.

We have no functioning parliament in Egypt and months ago Mohammed Morsi assumed legislative functions. Now he's decided that there should be no opposition to the laws that he makes and that he is authorized to pass any national security measure. It is difficult to be more absolutist than that. And the constitutional convention - what a sad gathering; it threatens to send us back to the darkest period of the Middle Ages.

The Egyptians have grown in confidence, theyve tasted freedom, and theres no way back.

If we are addressing the issue of weapons of mass destruction, we need to send a uniform, consistent message that there is zero tolerance to any country who is developing weapons of mass destruction, North Korea included.

I'm a lawyer. I go for due process; I go for fairness and equity - these values mean a lot to me.

Nobody wants any country to have nuclear weapons.

I have a lot of interests in global issues, as you know, humanity, inequity, arms control, and I continue to be active on all these issues.
