The Egyptian Orthodox Church on Wednesday strongly rejected a bill introduced by a member of the US House of Representatives on renovating Coptic churches in Egypt.
The bill demands the US Secretary of State to follow up the Egyptian government’s pledges on renovating the churches which it promised to repair after 2013 events, in which Muslim Brotherhood Rabaa El Adawiya and Nahda protest camps were dispersed.
In a statement, the Egyptian Orthodox Church said that the Egyptian government exerted the utmost effort to renovate the destroyed or harmed churches.
The Egyptian national unity is above all other considerations and the church will never accept any attempt to harm such a unity.
Earlier this evening, the Evangelical Church opted for a similar stance.
