Cairo (SONNA) – The President of the Federal Republic of Somalia, His Excellency Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, and the President of the Republic of Egypt, His Excellency Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi, held a pivotal meeting at the Al-Itihaadiya Palace in Cairo, culminating in a series of significant agreements aimed at bolstering bilateral relations.

During this high-level meeting, the two Presidents agreed to elevate the relationship between Somalia and Egypt to a strategic cooperation level. This move reflects the deepening historical ties between the two nations and their commitment to advancing collaboration across various sectors, including education, justice, politics, security, cooperation, and the economy.

In the realm of education, Egyptian universities, notably Al-Azhar Al-Sharif University, will increase scholarships and training opportunities for Somali students and professionals, fostering the development of diverse knowledge and skills.

The Presidents also pledged to accelerate cooperation between their respective institutions, particularly in the judiciary and security sectors. Egypt affirmed its support for the Somali government and people in their ongoing fight against terrorism.

A landmark agreement was witnessed by President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi, signed by the Foreign Ministers of Somalia and Egypt, to exempt Somali diplomatic passport holders from entry requirements. This agreement is a step towards enhancing diplomatic cooperation and easing travel for all citizens of both nations.

The two leaders emphasized the significance of these agreements in strengthening the bonds between Somalia and Egypt. They tasked the Somali and Egyptian Joint Committees with swiftly implementing these agreements to achieve the shared goal of brotherly cooperation.
