President Abdel Fattah El Sisi has paid tribute to the brave men of the Armed Forces, regardless of their ranks and degrees, for the efforts and sacrifices they made in order to preserve the nation’s capabilities and gains.
The president also greeted the loyal policemen for their efforts to protect Egypt’s internal security and provide an appropriate environment for stability so that the rest of the state’s apparatus and institutions can perform the role assigned to them.
Addressing the Martyrs’ Day celebrations under the title “Were it not for them, we would not be here”, the president also thanked the Egyptian government and all state institutions for their outstanding performance, setting an example in their ability to wisely manage crises and provide all medical and logistical supplies for citizens to cope with the repercussions of the coronavirus pandemic, Presidency Spokesman Ambassador Bassam Radi said.
President Sisi also said that what Egypt achieved throughout its national history confirms that its sacred land can never be depleted of heroes.
“Just as the past was replete with the glories of the ancestors, the present also comes with the achievements of the grandchildren,” the president told the gathering.

President Sisi said that Egypt has also comprehended all turbulent events and developments in the region, so it built a solid fence of strength, awareness and perception, with which it fortified its people with the support of the army.
President Sisi said that the inauguration of new administrative capital (NAC) represents declaring a new republic and the birth of a new country.
During the next few years, the government is preparing to develop the Egyptian countryside for providing “a decent life” … for nearly 58 million people .
