The Presidents noted the progressive development of "friendly and mutually beneficial ties in the trade, economic and humanitarian fields."
“The issues of deliveries of Russian agricultural products to the Arab Republic, as well as the implementation of large joint projects in the fields of energy and industry were specifically discussed,” the Kremlin said.
In addition, Putin outlined to his Egyptian counterpart Russian approaches to the package of Istanbul agreements on the export of Ukrainian grain from the Black Sea ports and the export of food and fertilizers from Russia.
The Russian president drew attention to the fact that these agreements must be implemented in a comprehensive manner.
“It was agreed to continue coordinating the efforts of Russia and Egypt to resolve crisis situations in the Middle East and North Africa region,” the press service of the head of state noted.
Russian Ambassador to Egypt Georgy Borisenko said earlier that the volume of Russian grain supplies to Egypt has increased, despite the anti-Russian sanctions of the West.
