Today I had the honour of being received by the President of Egypt, Mr. Al Sisi, to whom I conveyed warm greetings from the Prime Minister of Greece, Kyriakos Mitsotakis. I also conveyed to him our country’s determination to strengthen our ties of friendship and cooperation with Egypt. Immediately afterwards, I had long talks with my close friend the Egyptian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Sameh Shoukry. We discussed regional issues, developments in the Eastern Mediterranean, Libya, Turkey’s provocations. Finally, today we resumed our negotiations on an agreement on the economic zones between Greece and Egypt.
