Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah El Sisi heads for the UAE on Sunday, leading a high-level delegation to take part in the World Government Summit (WGS) 2023 that will kick off in Dubai on Monday under the slogan “Shaping Future Governments”.
Presidential Spokesman Ahmed Fahmi said Egypt is taking part in the event as a guest of honor.
During discussion panels, Sisi will expound the strategies and priorities of the Egyptian government at the economic and development levels.
Egypt’s participation in this edition is the biggest ever, the spokesman said, adding that this reflects the distinguished relations binding Egypt with the UAE.
Sisi’s itinerary includes bilateral meetings with prominent participants at the summit.
Formed by a team of experts in 2013, the WGS event is held annually in Dubai to act as a platform for government officials and thought leaders. It also acts as a platform for business leaders and the private sector on government policies, and for discussing technology innovation and a host of other topics.
