NBC's Jeff Rossen has the details and Newsweek's Christopher Dickey discusses the French reaction to the charges with TODAY's Matt Lauer.

There were also appearances on the France24 news bulletin with Annette Young and BBC America, but for the moment I can't find links to the video.

Plus, from earlier in the week:

(I would not agree with the report's assertion that Gamal Mubarak was the real power in Egypt in recent years.)
