Egyptian President, UAE Leader Hold Talks in Egypt

(MENAFN) Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi welcomed his counterpart, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates, on Monday evening in the northern Egyptian city of New Alamein. Sheikh Mohammed's visit comes after he arrived in the region from Angola, where a significant economic partnership agreement was signed between the UAE and the African nation.

The Emirati leader was greeted at Alamein International Airport by President Sisi, who expressed strong appreciation for the robust and enduring relationship between Egypt and the UAE. In a statement, the Egyptian presidency emphasized the importance of the visit, underscoring the continued strength of bilateral ties between the two nations.

The visit is seen as a demonstration of the close cooperation between Egypt and the UAE, particularly in areas of trade and investment, which have been a focus of both leaders in recent years. The partnership with Angola, signed earlier, reflects the UAE's broader strategy to enhance its economic footprint across the African continent.
