Egypt, Czech FMs stress depth of ties

Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry and his visiting Czech counterpart Lubomir Zaoralek stressed the depth of historic relations between the two countries in all spheres.

During a joint press conference Monday, Shoukry said the Czech Republic is a friendly country and the two countries are bound by political and economic relations that Egypt is working on developing.

He pointed out to a visit he made to Czech last year to expound on the developments in Egypt.

Shoukry said he discussed with Zaoralek means of promoting relations and a number of regional issues.

Zaoralek will meet with President Abdel Fattah El Sisi later today, he noted.

The Czech foreign minister arrived in Cairo on Saturday for a two-day visit, leading a 30-strong delegation of government officials and businesspersons.
