RIYADH (Reuters) - Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah has invited countries to attend a donor conference for Egypt, his country's most populous Arab ally, following its election of President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi on Tuesday. The world's top oil exporter has been a main supporter of Sisi and Egypt's military government since the army overthrew president Mohamed Mursi of the Muslim Brotherhood last summer. Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates pledged $12 billion in aid then, but have not announced any new commitments.
