    Statement on the Attempted Assassination of President Hosni Mubarak of
    Egypt
    June 26, 1995

        On behalf of the American people, I wish to express my outrage at
    the attempt made today by terrorists to assassinate President Mubarak of
    Egypt. I am relieved that President Mubarak was not harmed and has now
    returned safely to Cairo.
        The United States stands by Egypt--our partner for peace and
    prosperity in the Middle East and around the world--at this moment. The
    enemies of peace will not be allowed to thwart the peaceful hopes of the
    peoples of the region, and the efforts of President Mubarak and the
    peace makers to make those hopes a reality.
