Turkish Media Hails Sisi's Visit as a 'New Chapter' in Ties

Turkish website "Turkey Today" described President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi's visit to Turkey on Wednesday as representing a new chapter in the relations between the two countries.

The site highlighted that the visit marks a significant step towards restoring ties between Egypt and Turkey, noting that discussions between Presidents El-Sisi and Erdoğan focus on enhancing bilateral cooperation.

Reuters also covered President El-Sisi's visit to Turkey, describing it as the first presidential visit amidst the warming of relations between the two regional powers. The agency noted that El-Sisi's visit follows Erdoğan's trip to Cairo last February, his first visit since 2012, which was a major step towards rebuilding relations that had significantly deteriorated over the past decade.

Reuters further pointed out that the warming of relations between Cairo and Ankara began in 2020 when Ankara launched a diplomatic campaign to ease tensions with regional powers, including Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE.
