CAIRO - 5 September 2017: President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi affirmed to his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping that Egypt is keen on developing its relations with his country on all levels, as both Egypt and China are enjoying solid strategic relations.

During their meeting on the sideline of the 9th annual BRICS summit held in China, Sisi thanked Jinping for his invitation, adding that Egypt is taking very serious firm steps towards its economic reform.

On his side, the Chinese president said that Egypt is one of the most important countries in the Arabic and African region, and that developing the state's national economy affects international markets.

On the second day of attending BRICS Business Forum sessions, Sisi said that youth are considered to be the cornerstone of economic reform in Egypt and its main base.

He added that Egypt policy is completely consistent with BRICS' vision, especially when it comes to the necessity of financing the infrastructure.

Sisi gave his first speech on Monday in a session on Egypt at BRICS Business Forum. He called on the BRICS bloc (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) to bring more investments in Egypt, as his country takes measures to provide a “solid atmosphere” for foreign investments.

“We are working hard to make Egypt a supportive environment for your investments. We also look forward to benefiting from your expertise,” Sisi said.

The forum, which is held on the sideline of the 9th annual BRICS summit which kicked off Sunday in China's port city Xiamen, was attended by hundreds of businessmen.
