Ashraf Sobhi, the minister of youth and sports of Egypt, emphasised the political establishment's support for Arabs across a range of areas, including youth and sports.

On the eve of his trip to Iraq to attend the 25th Arabian Gulf Cup opening ceremony, he made the comments in statements to MENA on Saturday.

According to him, the Egyptian government is carrying out the orders of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi to encourage collaboration with Arab brethren in a variety of spheres.

After a 45-year break, he expressed joy that the title had been reinstated in Iraq.

Sobhi emphasised the significance of strengthening bilateral connections and praised the superb planning of the event, which is being held in Iraq from January 6 to January 19.
