Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi is on a state visit to China from May 28 to June 1, following an invitation from President Xi Jinping. The visit includes his participation in the opening ceremony of the 10th ministerial conference of the China-Arab States Cooperation Forum.
Residents of Cairo expressed optimism about the strengthened ties between their country and China. As the first Arab and African state to establish diplomatic relations with China 68 years ago, Egypt holds a significant position in the bilateral relationship. This year also marks the 10th anniversary of the China-Egypt comprehensive strategic partnership, highlighting a decade of enhanced cooperation.
In recent years, exchanges and collaborations between Egypt and China have made significant strides. The ongoing state visit is expected to further elevate trade relations and foster deeper cooperation across various sectors.
