“We call on the Egyptian government to pardon these individuals or commute their sentences so that they can be released immediately and grant clemency for all politically-motivated sentences, starting with the other defendants in this trial,” said spokesman Josh Earnest the during the White House daily briefing.

“We strongly urge President el-Sisi, in the spirit of his pledge to review all human rights legislation, to provide the protections for free expression and assembly as well as the fair trial safeguards that are required by Egypt's international obligations.”
