The President also affirmed that Egypt looked forward to establishing an American industrial zone in the Suez Canal Economic Zone and emphasized that Egypt was ready to provide all the necessary facilities to American investors, noting that investing in Egypt is an opportunity for any investor, as it enjoys both political and societal stability, based on the awareness of citizens and their resilience in enduring the major and harsh economic reforms that were implemented to achieve the public interest, in light of the difficult political circumstances that the region is experiencing and their ensuing repercussions.
Clark noted that the delegation's visit to Egypt confirms the strength and solidity of the strategic alliance between Egypt and the USA.
