Sisi leaves for Uganda on brief visit

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El Sisi left for Uganda on Sunday on a day-long official visit at an invitation of Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni.

The visit aims at furthering bilateral relations in all domains, especially trade and economic ones and mulling possible increase of trade exchange.

In addition to bilateral relations, talks will tackle a number of African issues of mutual interest in light of Uganda's efforts to achieve peace and security in the Nile basin, Horn of Africa and the African continent.

President Sisi will hold talks with Museveni at the presidential palace in Entebbe over bilateral relations and ways of setting up joint projects.

The two leaders will discuss efforts to enhance security and stability in the continent and find political settlements to many crises in African nations.

The two leaders will hold a press conference at the end of their talks.
