✍️ Article for "Ahram online" by the Russian Ambassador to Egypt Georgiy Borisenko under the title "Welcome to Russia!": 🔹️It is gratifying that Egypt will be represented on the Russia-Africa Summit by one of the largest delegations comprised of key politicians, leaders of business and mass media, and distinguished public figures. 🔹️Such a wide representation is no coincidence. Egypt has always been an essential political and economic partner for Russia in Africa. It is hard to overestimate our cultural and people-to-people ties. Moreover, it is a great honour for us to welcome our Egyptian friends in Saint Petersburg because it was your country and personally His Excellency President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi. 🔹️Historically cultural and humanitarian ties are the basis of such friendly relations between the people of the two countries. 🔹️We hope that our Egyptian friends, who are about to visit the Russian northern capital will enjoy its rich culture and unique beauty. 🔗https://is.gd/zxyHWc #RussiaAfrica
