President Trump tweeted words of praise for Egypt's president as he inaugurates a massive cathedral on Coptic Christmas Eve Sunday amid heavy security. 'Excited to see our friends in Egypt opening the biggest Cathedral in the Middle East,' Trump exclaimed on Twitter. 'President El-Sisi is moving his country to a more inclusive future!' Egypt's president is inaugurating Nativity of Christ Cathedral for Coptic Christians and one of the region's largest mosques. Sunday's opening ceremony is a highly symbolic gesture at a time when Islamic militants are increasingly targeting the country's minority Christians.
