French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Odrian will arrive in here Monday in a day-official visit, a well-placed source with French Embassy in Cairo said.
Odrian will meet with his Egypt's counterpart Sedki Sobhi to sign a deal to sell 24 Rafale fighter jets to Egypt, the source told MENA.
The French minister is expected to meet with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El Sisi at the presidency headquarters.
