Secretary of State Mike Pompeo promoted President Trump’s ‘America First’ agenda during his trip to Egypt Thursday; telling a crowd in Cairo the age of “self-inflicted American shame” has come to an end.

“Our eagerness to address only Muslims, not nations, ignored the rich diversity of the Middle East, and frayed old bonds. It undermined the concept of the nation-state, the building block of international stability,” said Pompeo. “And our desire for peace at any cost led us to strike a deal with Iran, our common enemy.”

“The good news is this: The age of self-inflicted American shame is over, and so are the policies that produced so much needless suffering. Now comes the real ‘new beginning,’” he added.

Pompeo’s address is part of his regional tour; with stops in Jordan and other Gulf nations in the coming days.
