Egypt’s Minister of Defense Mohamed Zaki discussed on Monday bilateral ties with visiting Rwanda’s Foreign Minister Richard Sezibera.

The ministers discussed the threats to the safety and stability of countries in the region, as well as the prospects for cooperation in defense and security, official Ahram Online news website reported.

The Rwandan foreign minister praised Egypt and its political leadership’s support of African countries, especially during Egypt’s chairmanship of the African Union (AU) in 2019.

For his part, the Egyptian minister of defense hailed the deep-rooted historical relations between Egypt and Rwanda, expressing Cairo’s desire for further cooperation on all levels.

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi took over the rotating AU chairmanship in February at the opening of the 32nd AU summit of heads of state and government at the AU headquarters in Ethiopia’s capital Addis Ababa.

Egypt believes that the chairmanship of Sisi would give a new impetus to ongoing endeavors of the Union in different arenas.
