Russian President Vladimir Putin is going to meet Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi Wednesday to discuss measures of fighting international terrorism. The Kremlin press service said that Russia supports Egypt’s “vigorous efforts” against terrorism, and is willing to provide “all-round assistance” to strengthen its armed forces and law enforcement.
Sisi will also visit Russia to talk about the Middle East settlement and the situation in Northern Africa. “The Joint Russian-Egyptian Commission for Trade, Economic and Scientific-Technological Cooperation is a vital mechanism to promote the Russian-Egyptian interaction,” the Kremlin press service reportedly said. “Its next meeting is to take place late this year.” Details
