CAIRO - 17 February 2019: President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi sent a message to Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said of Oman on Sunday Feb.17, according to the Omani news agency.

Egypt's Ambassador in Muscat Mohamed Ahmed Fahmy handed over the message to Omani Minister of the Diwan of Royal Court Khalid bin Hilal bin Saud al-Busaidi.

During their meeting, they discussed bilateral relations in several fields.

On February 2018, Sultan of Oman Qaboos bin Said al-Said asserted his country’s support to Egypt in its battle against terrorism during his summit with President Sisi.

The Sultan valued Egypt’s role in enhancing Gulf’s stability and security, confirming the long depth of Egyptian-Omani relations of cooperation and friendship, according to presidential spokesperson Bassam Radi. Sultan Qaboos expressed hope for Sisi’s visit to boost bilateral relations between the two countries, Radi added.

Sisi expressed Egypt’s appreciation to the Sultanate’s stances led by Sultan Qaboos, affirming that he is looking forward to enhance the bilateral relations as well.

Talks between the two leaders addressed economic cooperation and trade deals through the mutual committee, which will hold a meeting in Muscat soon. It also tackled the recent issues in the region, where Sultan Qaboos reviewed his vision on solving the Yemeni crisis in a way that can ease the suffering of Yemeni people.

The two leaders also discussed other regional issues in Syria, Lebanon and Iraq.
Upon arrival at Muscat’s Al-Alam royal palace on Sunday, Sisi was warmly welcomed by Sultan Qaboos.

Sisi’s visit to Muscat on February 2018 is the first since he took office in 2014, upon an invitation from Sultan Qaboos.

The relations between Egypt and Oman have been characteristically stable for decades.
