Egypt's Parliament Speaker Hanafy El-Gebaly arrived in Doha on Tuesday, for the first time since the two countries resumed ties.

El-Gebaly was accompanied by an official delegation. The visit came as a result of an invitation by the head of the Qatari Shura Council, Hassan Bin Abdullah Al-Ghanim.

Egypt's Parliament Speaker is set to meet Qatari officials to discuss ways of enhancing the two countries' relations at all levels and strengthening the two countries' parliamentary cooperation.

El-Gebaly's visit comes after Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi travelled to Qatar in September.

It is worth mentioing that, Egypt joined neighbouring Saudi, the UAE and Bahrain in boycotting Qatar in June 2017. This came to an end on 5 June 2021 under the terms of the Al-Ula reconciliation agreement.
