Issues discussed by Azerbaijani and Egyptian leaders made public 

“During the discussions, I once again mentioned the reforms implemented in the field of electricity production in Egypt and the infrastructure we have created. I stated that we are ready to share all our experience gained over the past nine years with the Azerbaijani side,” the President of Egypt, Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, said in his press statement following the ceremony of signing Azerbaijan-Egypt documents, Report informs, citing AZERTAC.

“During the meetings, we talked about the measures taken in the direction of removing the existing obstacles in the way of foreign investors in Egypt, creating conditions for them, and further facilitating legal procedures. Considering that Egypt plays the role of a gateway to the African continent, we emphasized the importance of the agreements signed in the field of free trade between our countries. At the same time, I specifically mentioned the existence of a direct air connection between Baku and Sharm el-Sheikh and stated the importance of increasing the number of direct flights between the two countries, which would contribute to our cooperation in the fields of economy and trade. During the talks with Mr. Ilham Aliyev, we discussed many regional and international issues of common interest. During the meeting, we also stated that it is important to continue the political dialogue all over the world and that it is not necessary to solve the issues by military force. The Russia-Ukraine crisis, which occurred on the heels of the global COVID-19 pandemic, dealt another blow to the international economy and trade, and had a very negative impact on food security, energy, shipping, tourism, and pharmaceuticals. I wish Mr. President Ilham Aliyev great success and the best of luck once again. I do hope that all these achievements gained as a result of his wise policy will be continued. We support the development of relations between Azerbaijan and the League of Arab States and will continue to support it,” the President said.
