"Clinton was questioned in a March 2, 2009, interview about an annual Department of State report on human rights that blasted Egypt for serious abuses. She was asked whether that report had anything to do with a request that Mubarak visit the U.S. “No. It’s an annual report,” Clinton said while in Sharm el-Sheik, Egypt. “It is not in any way connected. We look forward to President Mubarak coming as soon as his schedule would permit. I had a wonderful time with him this morning. I really consider President and Mrs. Mubarak to be friends of my family. So I hope to see him often here in Egypt and in the United States.”"
