In a statement, the Diwan of the Royal Court on Saturday stated, “To consolidate the well-established relations between the Sultanate of Oman and Egypt, and in support of the existing bilateral cooperation between them, and based on the keenness of the leaderships of the two countries to do everything that would strengthen and develop them towards broader horizons for a brighter, growing and prosperous future, His Excellency President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi will pay an official visit to the Sultanate of Oman for two days starting on Monday.”

“During this visit, a number of areas of common interest will be discussed to serve the interests of the two countries and to achieve the aspirations and hopes of their people, in addition to a number of issues of mutual interest in light of regional and international developments,” it added.

Notably, El Sisi held talks on Saturday with Qatar’s emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, who is visiting Cairo for the first time in years.

Citing an unnamed source, the newspaper said the two countries would sign agreements that would include Qatari investments in Egypt’s battered economy.

During the visit, an Egyptian-Qatari business council met with the aim of improving trade and investment between the countries. Qatar announced in March the investment of $5 billion in Egypt’s economy, which was hit badly by the repercussions of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
