Egypt’s Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouli Saturday welcomed the historical visit of Romanian Prime Minister Nicolae Ciuca to Egypt.
Madbouli said the Egyptian government is appreciating a move by Romania to receive Egyptian students, who were forced to leave Ukraine during the Russian-Ukrainian military operation and help them return home.
Speaking at a joint press conference with Ciuca, who is currently visiting Egypt, Madbouli said that the Romanian premier’s historical visit to Egypt will contribute to boosting relations between the two countries.
The Egyptian prime minister asserted his country and Romania have deep and profound ties, dating back to 117 years.
Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouli said the talks with Romanian Prime Minister Nicolae Ciuca tackled some issues to foster economic relations between the two countries and the joint trade exchange, whose volume reached more than one billion dollars last year.
Madbouli added he is pleased to cooperate with Romania in the field of fertilisers, petrochemicals and other goods Egypt is exporting to the country.
The Egyptian premier asked his Romanian counterpart to increase the volume of importing grains, saying Romania is a basic producer of grains in Europe and the world at large.
The Romanian premier promised to boost this field to up trade volume.
Madbouli said he is looking forward for the convocation of the joint committee and conference for probing some scientific and technical topics, slated for this current year in Bucharest.
The two sides are making necessary preparations for holding a forum for businessmen from Egypt and Romania, according to him.
