Chinese missile technicians spotted in Egypt | Washington Free Beacon
China is covertly working with North Koreans to modernize Egypt’s  short-range missile systems, raising new concerns among United States  intelligence officials about the arms programs of the Muslim  Brotherhood-affiliated government in Egypt.
A group of technicians from China’s premier missile manufacturer that  was previously sanctioned by the U.S. government for illicit arms  transfers are working in Egypt with North Koreans to modernize Cairo’s  Scud missile force.
According to U.S. intelligence officials, reports of the missile  technicians from the Beijing-based China Precision Machinery  Import-Export Corp. (CPMIEC) are raising new concerns about U.S. plans  to sell arms to the government of Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi.
