Nada Mustafa
Foreign Minister (FM) Badr Abdelatty, met on Wednesday, his Zambian counterpart Mulambo Haimbe on the sidelines of EU-Africa Ministerial Meeting held in Brussels.
During the meeting, Abdelatty expressed Egypt's eagerness to build on the growing momentum in bilateral relations, as evidenced by recent high-level exchanges, most notably the visit of Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema to Egypt in February 2025.
He emphasized the importance of developing an executive vision to implement the outcomes of that visit, particularly in priority sectors such as infrastructure, energy, renewable energy, agriculture, and health.
FM also stressed the need to increase trade volumes by facilitating greater access of Egyptian products to the Zambian market, highlighting the mutual benefit of both countries' membership in the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA).
The Egyptian Foreign Minister welcomed ongoing cooperation between the Arab Contractors Company and Zambia's Ministry of Infrastructure to execute several development projects. He also praised the existing bilateral cooperation in the health sector.
Furthermore, Abdelatty underlined the importance of continued coordination between Egypt and Zambia within regional and international organizations, particularly the African Union, to serve the interests of the African continent and its people.
