Kuwait's Crown Prince, Egyptian minister discuss strengthening cooperation
The meeting was also attended by Kuwait's Minister of Public Works and Transport, Noura Al-Mashaan, and the Egyptian ambassador to Kuwait, Osama Shaltout.
In a statement, the Egyptian transport ministry said Sheikh Sabah welcomed the Egyptian minister on his visit and praised Egypt's role in supporting various Arab issues and the wisdom of its leadership under President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.
The Crown Prince affirmed that the visit reflects the fraternal relationship between Kuwait and Egypt and the keenness of both countries' leadership to increase joint cooperation. He said Kuwait always welcomes Egyptian participation and cooperation in various fields.
For his part, El-Wazir conveyed greetings from President Sisi to Kuwait's Emir, Sheikh Mishal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, and to the Crown Prince. He highlighted the strong and historical positions of the two countries and noted President Sisi's visit to Kuwait in April 2025 and Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly's visit in February 2025.
The Egyptian minister said that President Al-Sisi had directed efforts to increase joint cooperation with Kuwait in all fields. He reviewed the developments in the Egyptian economy, Egypt's efforts to improve the investment climate, and the major national projects implemented by the country, particularly in the transport sector.
El-Wazir added that a delegation of 17 Egyptian companies specialising in infrastructure and mega-projects, which accompanied him to Kuwait, is interested in cooperating with the Kuwaiti side in implementing development and infrastructure projects planned by the Kuwaiti government. He stressed that they could offer very suitable prices, high-quality standards, and timely execution in line with Kuwaiti priorities.
He also pointed to promising investment opportunities in Egypt, especially in seaports, dry ports, and logistic zones, as well as in the industrial sector, which he said could be a strong starting point for joint cooperation.

Egyptian expat remittances jump 69.6% to $32.8 bln in July-May FY24/25: CBE - Economy
Remittances from Egyptians working abroad surged by 69.6 percent year-on-year from July 2024 to May 2025, reaching approximately $32.8 billion, the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) announced on Wednesday. This marks a significant rebound compared to the $19.4 billion recorded in the same period of fiscal year 2023/2024. According to the CBE data, remittance inflows also saw strong performance from January to May 2025, rising 59 percent year-on-year to about $15.8 billion, up from $9.9 billion in the same period in 2024. May 2025 witnessed a record-breaking $3.4 billion in remittances on a monthly basis, the highest level ever recorded for May, representing a 24.2 percent increase compared to $2.7 billion in May 2024. The sharp rise in remittance inflows comes amid broader efforts by the Egyptian authorities to stabilize foreign exchange markets, attract hard currency, and enhance financial flows from abroad. Remittances remain one of Egypt's most vital sources of foreign currency, alongside the revenues from the Suez Canal, tourism, and foreign direct investment. The surge in remittance inflows that Egypt has recently witnessed is one of the country's achievements under the ongoing Extended Fund Facility's (EFF) $8 billion loan programme.
