He's using her predictable knee-jerk reaction to manipulate her into panickingly and blindly rallying all the nations of the world in one place so he can address them. As Egwene herself realises, Egwene is in a unique position to do this.
And the answer came to her instantly: pride. Oh, you hear them say it's a sin; you hear them say it goes before a fall. the shepherd prides himself on keeping the wolf out from the flock. We pride ourselves on making a good history of our lives, a good story to be told.

Not if it allows the Seanchan freedom to conquer Randland. I'd rather have Egwene over the slavers.

They're the ones who raised her this way! That's the last thing she needs.

Um, can we assume her parents raised her that way?

She's a short, female, youngest child of influential parents. Arrogance would come naturally to her.

Because many of us don't see trying to achieve power for its own sake to be a good thing

She didn't say that. You changed the wording and read it without context.

This is the problem with rulers - what is smart for them equals increasing their power. Which is bad
