Ambassador Ahmed agreed that cooperation between the two countries should be strengthened and emphasized the significance of last year’s visit from the President of the Arab Republic of Egypt to the Republic of Serbia. He said that preparations for the upcoming session of the Mixed Military Committee were underway in Egypt, which, according to him, would be an excellent opportunity to define guidelines for further promotion of cooperation in areas of mutual interest.
