Ankara is progressing resolutely toward its goal of increasing trade volume with Cairo to $15B within the next five years, the Turkish president said on Wednesday.
Speaking at a news conference with his visiting Egyptian counterpart Abdel Fattah al-Sisi in the capital Ankara, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said Türkiye and Egypt reaffirmed determination to advance cooperation in every area, including industry, defense, health, environment and energy.
“We will enhance our multifaceted relations in a win-win manner,” he added.
Erdoğan said Türkiye and Egypt have a common stance on the Palestinian issue, adding that their contributions to regional peace and stability are “vital.”
Al-Sisi arrived on an official visit to Türkiye, his first since taking office, on the invitation of Erdoğan, who visited Cairo in February.
