Why?

Because last month in the United Nations, contrary to Saudi Arabia's wishes, Egypt voted in favor of a Russian resolution on Syria.

In the world of foreign aid, that's a super no-no. When a regime has received $25 billion from another regime, it is expected to vote the way its benefactor wants it to vote.

In a remarkable admission regarding foreign aid, at least in this particular case, the New York Times, in an article on the matter, wrote, "The Saudis may have thought they were buying loyalty…." The Times article pointed out that to punish the Egyptians for their independence, "The state-owned Saudi  oil company, Aramco, postponed a promised shipment of 700,000 tons of discounted oil in October, and the spokesman for Egypt's oil ministry said the fate of November's shipment remains unknown."
