(MENAFN) Egypt is prepared to expand its partnership with China, particularly in the economic sphere, Deputy Prime Minister for Industrial Development and Minister of Industry and Transport Kamel El-Wazir said Monday.

In an official statement, El-Wazir underscored China's position as Egypt's leading trading partner and conveyed confidence in the potential for greater Chinese investment in the country.

El-Wazir is visiting China as the representative of Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi, attending ceremonies marking the 80th anniversary of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War.

He highlighted the long-standing strength of bilateral relations, recalling that Egypt and China have maintained a comprehensive strategic partnership since 2014.

Referencing the 2024 implementation outline for that partnership, signed earlier this year, El-Wazir stated the agreement serves as a strategic roadmap to enhance cooperation, building on measurable progress achieved over the past decade.

During his visit, El-Wazir is scheduled to meet with top executives and leaders of major Chinese firms to discuss investment opportunities and deepen collaboration between both nations.
