Egypt’s Foreign Minister To Visit India: Defence & Trade To Take Centre Stage

Описание: Egypt’s Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty is set to travel to India next week for the first-ever bilateral Strategic Dialogue—a follow-up to the 2023 upgrade in India-Egypt relations. He will meet with External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar to assess action on defense, trade, and regional cooperation commitments made during the visits of President Sisi and PM Modi.

A key focus will be defence production, including possible co-manufacturing of fighter aircraft, missiles, and military hardware under India’s self-reliance drive. India already has a footprint in Egypt—with 55 Indian companies investing $3.75 billion, notably in the Suez Canal Economic Zone. They are also establishing the continent’s first CNG cylinder plant via India’s Everest Kanto Cylinder with financing from Egypt's National Bank.

Beyond defence, the discussions will cover ICT, green energy, pharmaceuticals, higher education, tourism, and even direct Cairo–Delhi flights. Both countries aim to lift bilateral trade from $7 billion to $12 billion in five years.
This diplomatic engagement comes amid active regional diplomacy—Egypt played a mediator role in the Israel-Hamas ceasefire, and the dialogue will include West Asia security deliberations. The visit is expected to accelerate defence linkages, trade partnerships, and support in regional peace efforts.
