1 Not enough to build a base.
Too much for a bribe.
About enough for 3 F35s.

Maybe the money is to buy what Egypt was going to sell to Iran, and bribes.

2 Egypt Demands ‘Fairness’ for Global South at U.N. General Assembly
Madbouly’s lengthy speech broadly outlined various problems but rarely explained exactly who, or what, he was talking about. His solutions were equally vague, but invariably involved some sort of U.N.-managed multilateral framework that would not require equal contributions or sacrifices from all parties. He was consistently elusive about who would be paying the bills to achieve “fairness” in technology, economics, and global influence.

Madbouly said President Donald Trump’s peace plan for Gaza was the ideal road map for resolving the current crisis, but he accused Israel of “daily violations” that had to be ended. He also accused the Israelis of plotting to displace the entire Palestinian population and said Egypt was “categorically opposed” to any such operation.

“The international community as a whole bears a clear responsibility to stop systematic Israeli violations of international law. Peace cannot be built on uprooting a people from their land, believing that stability can be achieved in the region while ignoring the suffering of the Palestinian people, and merely managing the occupation rather than ending it is nothing but an illusion,” he said.

Oh, that's where it went.

3 The Egyptian definition of fairness is “Give us more money and punish Israel.”
