“We will review the issue of Camp David,” Morsy said, adding that he would not take executive action but would rather pass recommendations through the government and cabinet. “I will not make any decision alone,” he said.

“Our policy towards Israel will be one of equality, because we are no less than them in any way,” he said. “We will discuss the restoration of Palestinian rights [with the Palestinians], because this is a very important issue.”

Turning to Iran, Morsy also stated that his administration will look to expand bilateral ties to create a strategic “balance” in the region.
