The visit of Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to Egypt, the first by an Iranian leader since Cairo and Tehran broke off relations in 1980, has not entirely succeeded in conveying a sense of rapprochement between the two long-time rivals. Over the course of the trip, Egyptian officials have publicly condemned Iran for interfering in the internal affairs of neighboring countries, a charge increasingly heard from Arab states. Egyptian officials have not been reticent to complicate state visits with accusations aimed at Iran and its allies. In August, Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi visited Tehran in order to participate in a summit for the Nonaligned Movement, and publicly slammed Iran there as well.
