Robert Gibbs: “Yesterday I think the vice president -- Vice President Suleiman made…”

On the recordFebruary 7, 2011

Yesterday I think the vice president -- Vice President Suleiman made some particularly unhelpful comments about Egypt not being ready for democracy, about not seeing a lift of the emergency law. And I don't -- I don't think that in any way squares with what those seeking greater opportunity and freedom think is a timetable for progress.
