Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi @AlsisiOfficial held talks with President Xi Jinping. President Xi noted that Egypt established diplomatic relations with the People’s Republic of China in 1956, becoming the first Arab and African country to do so. The past seven decades of shared journey through wind and rain has fostered and witnessed the salient features of China-Egypt relations: equality and mutual trust, friendship and mutual learning, solidarity and mutual support, and win-win cooperation. Faced with the changing and turbulent international and regional situation, the two countries should support each other, deepen cooperation, and continue to build a China-Egypt community with a shared future.
