President al-Sisi arrives in Angola at beginning of three-leg African tour

Sisi’s visit to Angola is the first by an Egyptian president to the country, Presidential Spokesperson Ahmed Fahmy said.

Earlier on Tuesday the spokesperson said that the president’s tour of the southern African region comes as part of Egypt’s keenness on intensifying coordination with its fellow African countries.

It aims at enhancing relations with the African states in the various fields especially bolstering cooperation in the economic, trade and investment domains, in addition to giving a top priority to the African issues in the agenda of Egypt’s foreign policy, added the spokesman.
