The European Union will offer Egypt economic and political assistance for its transition to a broad-based government, foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said, while cautioning that the process will take time.

“The challenge with Egypt is to work out how to get that process moving effectively so that there is both an end point that people believe in, and a process that people believe in,” Ashton told reporters at the United Nations in New York.
