Prime Minister Narendra Modi will pay an official visit to USA and Egypt from June 20-25, 2023.
The PM is visiting Egypt on invitation of the Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, which he extended in January 2023 when he graced India’s Republic Day celebrations as the ‘Chief Guest. This will be PM Modi’s first visit to Egypt, according to the MEA release.
The Prime Minister will apart from his talks with President Sisi, interact with senior dignitaries from the Egyptian Government, some prominent Egyptian personalities, as well as the Indian community in Egypt. Relations between India and Egypt are based on ancient trade and economic linkages as well as cultural and deep-rooted people-to-people ties.
During the state visit of President Sisi in January 2023, it was agreed to elevate the relationship to a ‘Strategic Partnership’.
